First ten mile tempo in seattle (actually 9.9, but I'm not sure that includes the 20 second stair climb). Started at Woodland Park, then ran to Green Lake, Ravenna, Burke Gilman Trial, Freemont Bridge, Westlake Trail to the Starbucks drive through at Lake Union Park (official finish line).

Total time of 61:38 (6:13 pace). Terrain is very flat and fast for the most part. There are a few downhills, but they are on gravel trails, as well as the aforementioned stair climb.

I took the following splits:

Start to Burke Gilman 4.76 in 29:49 (6:16 pace)

Burke Gilman 3.66 in 22:34 (6:10 pace)

Stairs+Bridge+Westlake: 1.47 in 9:14 (6:17 pace)

The bridge rises to allow ships to pass, and the barriers started coming down just after I had crossed, so I was fortunate that I didn't have to stop.In the future I'll need to leave earlier to ensure that I'm crossing the bridge prior to 9am (it was 9:10).

First race as a Seattleite. This race is part of the Magnuson park series which has monthly, no-frills, races.

The course was an interesting mix of gravel paths, concrete, trails and grass. It kind of reminded me of the sort of 'cross country' courses that I would run in highschool. At the start a guy in black (not Teren) took off real fast and probably ran su 16. I was in a pack of 2-3-4 and it remained a close battle for 2nd the whole way.

Splits: 5:31, 5:39, 5:40, :31

AM I had a track attack this morning. Went to the Greenlake track (seattle track #3, dirt, danger of slamming headlong into people running the wrong way) for a short workit. I had forgotten my wibblies, but wibble enforcement was slacking this morning.
