I decided to run MWF 2 a days and Sat. long. I ran 4.9 this morning 6:32 ave. I ran on the trail across from SCHS. Beautiful cool morning.

This afternoon I went for 11.26 mi. my usual route counterclock wise. I wanted to push through a hard run. I ran easy for the first couple of uphill and flat miles, then started aiming for sub 6 miles. I ended up with 6:05 Ave. Here are the splits: (ya I'm pumped about these) 6:38, 6:19, 6:26, 6:23, 6:00, 5:49, 5:42, 5:50, 6:04, 6:00, 5:51, the last .26mi. in 1:22.  So I am happy with numbers like that on an up and down loop course. And all of this after a days worth of PE with 500 kids.

Hey Ken, Another Great Day! Your afternoon run was out of control. Keep up the good work. Just so you know we have changed the Thurs. run time to 6pm.
