| DINO Race series comes to Brown Co. State Park. "15k" race ino the trails. 8.8 GPS. I really raced hard today. It felt good to have somewhat successful result for current fitness. Great to have a developing core of friends in attendance as well. 5th overall in a pretty good field. 1 guy broke 60, and the other top finishers were very evenly spread out about 1 minute apart. 8.8 miles - 1:06. Did some jogging around the trails as support for for other folks as well.

| AM - mid LR / workout: 10mi. MP. The weather was decent - got ranied a little bit, but, enough to make it cooler temp. Started in a pretty comfortable range effort wise and started to struggle with the pace after about 8 miles. Stayed down around 6:45 - 6:50 pace. Improvement, but, still a long way to go to feeling comfortable at 6:30 pace. Mill Race Half course around town, watching the set up for the Cummins 100 yr Celebration. 13.2 total - 1:36

| Long Run - most of new Mill Race Course (no airport). 22 miles - 2:52. kept it under 8 minute pace, which was a challenge at times. Overcast and a bit warm. Sun actually came out for parts of the run. This area of Indiana had tornados last night. There's some damage around town, and the usual flooding.

| Induced Bonking this morning. Ran over to kids BBall game at FFY, about 7 miles. watched taht for about 1.5hrs. and then ran from there around town and back to house down Sr 11 - about 2:30 more hours of running in the quickly heating up day. Only water on the run for the bonking effect. not too bad, and I went slow enoiugh to not really hit hard.
Signed up for Tunnel Hill 100 mile. Here we go. I won't be denied this year.
Build up for running a great marathon at Mill Race at the end of Sept. with some Ultra type training sprinkled in, and then keep building up through October, and bingo - succesful 100mile in November.
