1.84 miles @ 9:10 pace

0.27 @ 6:18 pace (across bridge)

Happy to get 6.2 miles in ... riding bike 20 miles early in morning, followed by some trail running.

Nice speed and good idea mixing in the cross training!

Thanks Dan ... I have nightmares about HMS! (High Mileage Syndrome) I felt some minor tweaking in my Achilles earlier in the week, so trying to dial it back a little!

How can you run that fast right out the door, wow! Nice run.

HMS is no joke, I'm thinking of joining a support group or 12-step program.

Hahaha! You guys need a 12 step program...if not it will end up in weeks of the couch program. Too many miles for my sad old bod and I end up injured every time. I am on the run every other day program. It is working so far!

Nice running right out the door. If I tried to run in the sixes after eating I would have to re-eat my dinner when I got back home!

You are a night owl, I can't run at night. Good running as usual.
