AM - 8.5 miles up to work.

PM - 7.5 miles home. Threw in 10 x 1/4 mile (hot/cold). And by that I actually mean lukewarm/cold... the "fast" quarters were about marathon pace (77-79)... so lukewarm is even a generous description. If nothing else, it was nice to actually break a sweat for the first time since TOU.

Now off to Moab for the weekend!

Have fun in Moab, my favorite area on earth.

What's your favorite area in space? :-)

Mine was Pluto until they took away its designation as a planet!

I thoroughly enjoy seeing pictures from mars....probably because it looks like the area around Moab. Lol

Jake,

Looks like recovery is going well. Looking at your long term goal, might I make a recommendation? I recommend that you set your goal as something like running a sub 2:18 at the 2016 Olympic Trials. I think it is a foregone conclusion that you will qualify! If you believe you will qualify then your true long term goal should be focused on what you want to run when you are there.

Just my food for thought.

I think I can be a 2:15 guy by 2016. That's the big goal. Thanks for the positive thoughts... It means a lot to know that others believe in my big goals. It's probably going to take sub 2:18 just to qualify for the next trials!!

i'm patiently waiting for moab albums and epic hiking stories. i can't start "working" until this is fulfilled. no pressure.

btw, i signed up for the half/5k double header on the 13th.

As team "captain", I got the emails last night saying that you signed up!

I'm still bitter about my loss to Amiee in the backwards dash, but I guess I need to get over it and post some blog updates this morning...
