Tired today... So what do I do?  I start up the biggest hill in the neighborhood.  After running that 1.3 mile hill, it was all easy running the rest of the way home.  The pace for the entire run averaged 8:55.  My pace would have been over 9 but I picked up the pace (8:15) the last 2 miles.

I contibute the speed work tuesday morning and the 18 holes of golf yesterday to my sad and tired state of being today.  I will rest really well for the rest of the week so I can redeem myself on saturday.

Ran 3.5 miles with Cathy and Elijah for a warm-up.  Their pace was 11:07.  Turned around and did 2.5 miles by myself at a 7:55 average pace.  Picked up my brother and a friend and we headed out on a 7 mile jaunt.  First 2 miles was easy and uphill (9:15 pace), then we did a 2 mile pace averaging around 7:15 to 7:30.  Good run and we hit the all-you-can-eat at JB's.  I ate 5 plates of goodies... it all tasted really good today!!!

Going to lounge around the pool eating more good food.  My wife and her brother are cooking a hawaiian meal.... YEAH!!!  Then I may go bike riding tonight.  Shoot for 50 miles, hope for 25!
