Tonight was basically three different workouts. First I did a 3 mile tempo run from the running store down the marathon finish to Warthen Park, had to run around the park a little to make it exactly 3 miles, but I was pretty pleased with the pace. 1- 6:25- crossing busy streets, always slows me down a little 2- 6:01-felt good
3- 5:59- still feeling strong Once at the park I stopped briefly to use the bathroom and get a drink. Then the second workout, the run back to the running store which had some gradual uphill, but not too bad, just kept the pace easy here.
4- 7:28 5- 7:36 6- 7:30 7- 7:37 ran up to the Elks Club, then back to the store The last workout was running 5 miles with the club. Steve, Bill, Luke, and Paul. Dave and Clyde are off to Boston, which I think they are going to do quite well at this year. I wish I was going, but I need to save some money. Maybe next year I'll go again, definately want to do it again sometime. Anyway with the club I only did 5 miles on the trail above Red Cliffs Golf Course. I was feeling kind of tired on the trail run, not so much tired, but really hungry, all I could think about was getting something to eat. The pace for the 5 miles was really slow, we had to climb over quite a few rocks, and at one point lost the trail completely. Legs and hip flexors a little sore, and my right ankle has really been bothering me lately, ever since I broke it a few years ago it has never been quite the same, it is still pretty weak.
