Another 5k another low 18 time. Can't seem to get through that 3rd mile fast enough. I was able to warm up from home to the race, but hamstring was still bothering me a little as I raced.
Kelly goes sub 30!! in a big way. 29:01 a huge PR for her. Her 1st 10K is less than 2 weeks away. I thinks she'll go sub 60 | Add Comment |

| Night run in neighborhood and oak lea. 44:02/7:20 pace, negative split. 8:21, 7:37, 7:31, 7:15, 6:36, 6:42. Very little remnant of hamstring pain. Night running has a psychological boost for me. I run w/o my glasses and the darkness hides the hills, so I just power on through. | Add Comment |

| Late morning run at Pt Mallard. 4 mile warm up for a 1 mile time trial. Garmin had me at 4:56:37 while the markings on the road had me at 5:01. I perfer the former, although the accuracy of each is relative.On thedrive home I started experiencing waves of nausea and thought that I was going to have to pull over and puke. I made it home got a snack and passed out on the couch. Felt a lot better when I woke up.The workout was a good indication that my training is going well, the aftermath shows that I'm not getting in all the milage and speed work I need. | Add Comment |

Mileage was accrued as I was running around the infield of the track while coaching the kids at their last track meet. I had one boy (8yrs old) run a 6:51 1600 meters. All the other kids performed well too.
Kelly ran the Steeple Chase 8K finishing in 47:31, she should have no problem going sub 60 at the Jesse Owens 10K next Saturday | Add Comment |

11am- 10 mile tempo run, 1st mile easy warm up, remainder at MP. 1:08:11, 6:49 pace. This was one of those runs that had no fore plannining. I just went out and ran how I felt. I made it a point not to look at the garmin during the run. I like to judge my fitness level on a 10 mile run. If I can do it 1:10:00 I know I'm in a pretty good zone.
8:30pm- 4.27 with Eric in his neighborhood at an easy 8:30 conversational pace. Great start to the week.

| Jesse Owens 10k, ran well and even had a kick at the end due to the 6th place finisher closing on me in last .2. Did however have a small bout of the heaves in the finish chute, luckily nothing came out. After I finished I ran out to pace Kelly in the last mile. She ran great and finished in 59:21. Her first 10K and sub 60, AWESOME. All the girls ran well in their races as well. | Add Comment |

Down in Mobile for a beach visit. Ran at 8am, 75 and humid, easy 7:20 pace.
This month left a lot to be disired for milage and speed training. Now that it's starting to get uncomfortably hot to run unless its pre-dawn, it'll take an extra effort to keep up my training.
