Just did an easy 8 miles after yesterday's long run. I felt pretty good today just a little stiff/tight from yesterday. I started off real easy and tired to keep the pace relaxed. I had to battle a pretty good head wind about half of the run so it was hard to run easy into a strong wind. I just wanted to shake the legs out after yesterday so nothing special.

Nice to see you still atop the mileage board!

Two ways to look at it. My two days of fame or everyone else has already achieved their goals and are winding down for the year while I am still out here trying to get mine :)

I talked with someone close to my speed in running who's pr in Thursday's 10k is a 7:15 pace. He's run 5k's in the 19's and 10k's right around 40 minutes. Based on his experience, I'll be happy to keep a 7:10-20 pace. Having experienced a good weekend of running, I'll probably give it a good strong effort.
