Ran with friends, paced Breanna so she could get a rockin PR, and had a fun race.  It was nice not to push this one, but I did like the new course! I picked it up on the last 5k... Breanna really appreciated that!!

Splits: 7:22, 7:34, 7:30, 7:28, 7:23, 7:26, 7:43, 7:24, 7:43, 7:50, 7:11, 7:16, 7:02, and 6:18(0.1 mile)

No bike ride today. We went to Las Vegas to get us fitted on our bikes. WOW... he made big changes to my bike. The guy wanted to do more but my bike was limited for all the corrections I needed. He said I am too flexible and that my handle bars should be down on the front tire... :D Too Funny!! I'm going riding tomorrow.
