Big project finally submitted today at work! A decent day out today, but for some reason, I didn't feel like running outside? What's wrong with me? I actually prefer the treadmill at the gym to running outside?... PM treadmill: WU with nice steady buildup to MP. Ran 5 mi @ MP (9.3mi. - 6:27/mi.). then brought the heart back down a bit and finished up 9 mi. - 63:20. It felt like it took till about mile 3 to get in rhythm for MP.
bathroom break, again (gotta stop eating so close to when I run) and then 30 minutes of core and legs - worked pretty hard at this today. Back on the treadmill to shake it out - 2mi. - 16:00

First Cross Roads Series race of the year this morning in Seymour, IN. About 25 deg. at the start: WU a mile with a pickup, This race is a 5k and 10k that start at the same time, which makes things interesting. 5k/10k split off at around 2.5 miles. The usual mad rush from the start line with a group of about 10 that goes out way too fast, and a group of 10 more that are legit. I already know I'm running for third place with the 2 sub 35min. guys in the 10k pulling away from even the 5k runners. I actually run smart and relaxed in the beginning of one of these races, for once. At the split off, I discover that I am all alone in third. I didn't see the top 2 at any point, nor did I hear or catch wind of anybody close to behind me for the rest of the race. I'll be interested to see where 4th was. Even splits through first 5k and actually went negative on the last 5k, today. It looks like I would've been a contender for the soft winning time in the 5k (the same people that won today are usually a lot faster than they were today) :)
5:57, 5:59, 5:59, 5:51, 5:54, 5:57, 0:51 -- 36:31 Very pleased with this - 10k PR and 8k PR (en route) Went and saw a good movie - Beautiful Creatures - nothing like the books according to the wife, but I thought it worked. PM treadmill at the gym - watched Duke get beat by Maryland :) 8 mi. super easy - 7mph most of the way (~ 70 minutes of easy jogging)
