Short tempo thru neighborhood and Oak Lea. Structures feel slightly lighter than the 2150s.

Moving up to the 8K distance this weekend at the Steeple Chase 8K in Decatur.

Warm up then 10 X Jessie Drive hill. 100 ft of elevation change in .16 mile (15% grade). Uphill pace averaged out to 6:55/mile. I had 2:20 recovery down hill shag in between. I was feeling the workout on my 2+ mile cool down to get home.

Had a good race today. Settled into 2nd place behind fellow Fleet Feet/Nike runner George DeWitt and just tried to keep him in sight. In the end had to push it to keep Emily Hardin from catching me down the home stretch, held her off  by one second! 

Girls had a track meet afterward and Avy (my youngest, 8) powered through a 3:34 800 meter run, placing 4th and beating many of the 5th and 6th grade girls. Lily and Camille had some great efforts in their sprints and relays.

Great day of running by the Elmore's, though we are missing Kelly who is down in Gulf Shores at the State HS Track Meet.
