No run today.  Body recovering from lack of sleep.  Also, a break away from vegetarian diet.  We ate at a restaurant that did not have any vegetarian choices.  So I had a burger with bacon and french fries.  I'm now paying for that.

8:17, :51, :51, :20, :10, :52.  6 miles in 51:22 or 8:34 mpm

7:30 am race in Somerset KY.  very hilly.  63 degrees and 94% humidity.  At first glance, I was a little disappointed in my results.  I would like to run the Chicago Marathon in 3:00:00 or less.  Therefore a half marathon result 1:25:00+ in not very encouraging.  However, 1:24:xx took first place so maybe this is not a good indicator of my abilities at this time.  

Miles 1-4:  6:17, 7:07, 6:51, 7:58. Lead group went out fast and I ran with them to help with the wind for the first mile.  Once I saw how fast we were at the mile split, I pulled back. Mile 2 I was by myself.  Mile three I was passed by the eventual 3rd, 4th, and 5th place finishers. Mile 4 had a mean hill heading up into downtown.

Miles 5-8:  7:15, 6:45, 6:55, 7:01.  Mile 5 was rolling through the downtown.  Finally a payoff with slight downhill for the next two miles.  I was kind of out there by myself for most of this stretch.

Miles 9-12: 7:09, 7:33, 7:14, 8:01.  I ran aside the 5th place finisher for a couple of miles, but he smoked me on the uphills.  a couple of killer hills, then a long sweeping hill over the bridge for mile 12.

Mile 13:  7:19 (0:17 for the last 10th)I pushed as hard as I could.  My calves were feeling it from the hills.

All in all a good test.   

6am run with the group. We ran the pump house road loop. 3.the by myself then 10 with the group. 1:30:24 or 9:02 mpm

9:08 mpm

4:30 am 'long run' with David and Gordon.  65 degrees and humid.  8:59 mpm average.  1422 feet of elevation gain.  We started on Bourne avenue as we normally do.  Then we hit the 914 bypass around Somerset.  Kind a scary occurrence this morning.  About an hour into our run, we were on the shoulder running opposing traffic discussing the possibility of getting a new timer for the half marathon next year when DAVID JUST ABOUT STEPPED ON SOME DUDES HEAD.  Its dark and we are out a ways from town.  It took a couple of seconds to process what just happened.  Of course we turned around to go back to see what was up with this guy.  He appeared to be a 20 something white guy all tatted up.  Gordon shines his head lamp in the guys face and leans down to talk to him.  He is unresponsive and  eyes half open.  We do notice light breathing, also a knife in his pocket.  Did I mention we are out in the middle of no-where and its pitch dark.  David and I are a bit timid and back off.  We decide to waive down a car to call 911 (none of us brought a phone today).  Cars are few and far between at 5:45am on a Sunday.  Plus no one wants to stop for three random dudes on this stretch of road.  Finally a guys stopped and called the incident in.  We waited until 6:16 when a guy from the city stopped by, but still no EMS.  Yes 30 minutes and no EMS.  

Later we find out that the guy recently was released from prison and was living with his mom.  Mom had enough of his games and took him to the local church.  The church and this guy didn't see eye to eye so he left around 4:45.  He must have walked on this road until he passed out.  He spent the day at the hospital.

What a morning.  We had a good run though.  Needless to say, our conversation was centered around this for the rest of the run.  I was a bit late for church as well. 

5am run with David and Gordon.  55 degrees 4x1.5 mile repeats. Garmin issues again.  Time to send both of my watches off to be rebuilt. The first two were under 10 minutes.
