Got up and ran the Perrysville 5K this morning in pretty good time 18:04 for second place. Was in 5th at the mile, 4th at the turn around point and reeled in Cole Jeffries (who beat me in this race 3 years ago) just after 2 miles. He through in about 3 or 4 surges, but I was able to keep getting him back to finish 2nd. Winner got about 14 seconds on me, which he had 18 on me at the turn around. Splits not too bad (5:45,5:58,5:45). Course was just a tad long, probably about 15 seconds long. Not too bad since the legs weren't all that fresh this morning. Temp was cool, in the 60s but humid. Later this afternoon, ran the same 6 miles with Jacki that we ran yesterday in 44:05, a little quicker than yesterday.
