Personal:

I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10.  I've been running since 1982.  I never get "basic" injuries.  I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping  down on my peroneal nerve.

Tonight, can't really explain why, but just ran my 6.5 mile course in a really fast 39:21!  Ran sub 6 pace the second half with the last mile in 5:42.  My legs are actually still a little sore from Saturday.  I had to take a small 30 minute nap before I ran.  Did 10 minutes easy on the Octane then went out and ran.  Even though I was still tired from being up so late with work lastnight, and being sore, my legs were feather light.  First mile was 7:03, then ran very effortlessly right at 6 minute pace.  When I got to Collett Park in 20:33, I decided to "push it" on the way back and ran the second 3.25 in 18:48.  Can't really explain it.  Going to jump into 10K race on Saturday before assuming "winter training".
