I got a little carried away with the miles today. I guess it will just make my wed or thurs that much easier. I ran over to the fairgrounds and did 6x100m striders while waiting for Jon. They were pathetically slow, but the did get the body warmed up and ready to go. When Jon came, we did mostly easy miles with 2 faster miles with full recovery in-between. I was shooting for 5:30 range and got a little excited the first one and went too fast. I made Jon give me a 10 second head start with the idea of me holding him off and he trying to catch me. It worked well to pull us to a fast time, but probably too fast. I went 5:25 then 5:29 for the second. We ran back to his house and checked on the progress of my dirt pile. They have actually been working hard on it all weekend and have gotten the foundation poured today. After dinner (thanks for feeding a starving batchelor), I ran home (hence the extra miles).
