5 mile breakdown tempo run, 35:24/7:04 avg, with a 1 mile cooldown @ 8:05 pace. Legs felt a little heavy during first 2 miles, but loosened up in the last part. Kinda warm still at 5:20pm. Listened to This American Life on NPR.

7.6 in the afternoon from home to Wilson Morgan (2 loops) and back, kept pace pretty even at 7min/mi thoughout.Getting heat acclimated. Remaining mileage w/kids at track practice.

Two cases of swine flu reported in Madison, just 20 miles away. They are elementary school kids who are both recovering fine after medical attention. But it did prompt the school system in Madison County to shut down til Monday. This in turn cancelled all school related sporting events around the state. Kelly will not be going down to Gulf Shores for the State track meet. I am waiting on word from John Carroll HS in Birmingham to see if the girls track meet on Friday is still on.

I had planned on a 16 mile mostly trail run at Pt Mallard (shaded/soft surface). After my first 4 mile loop I stopped at the van for aid, but alas had the Integra key instead of the van key in my shorts pocket. So I took off to the other side of town to Austin HS to find Kelly and get her key,(roads and no shade). Thankfully I was able to catch Eliza, Eric's wife, at home and got some GU and S-caps and a refill on my bottle. Made it to AHS right when Kelly was getting her lunch break, got the key, visited with her, refilled my bottle and headed back to the park. 14 miles, 1:46:23/7:35

1 mile with kids at track practice, Toy bowl cancelled due to Swine Flu concerns.
