Met up with the guys this morning. I got there a little early so I could get some miles in. Got just over 4 in before the others showed up. It was pretty warm on this part of the run so I made sure not to take gloves. It was 54 degrees and I should have left the long sleeve shirt home. Next time. Kept the pace nice and relaxed for a while starting at Sullivan SOCCER Park, down by Staheli Farms, over by George Washington Academy, down River Rd. and then "Quadsi" kicked in at Foremaster so the pace picked up a little bit with Clyde. We ran up past the freeway and then back towards the WCCC and back down to the park. Fair amount of hills and ended up hitting 6:58/mile overall. Happy with the run and end to the week. I would like to get more miles in for the upcoming race but I realize that anything between 70-90 is when I race best. Plus I swamped with graduate school so it seems like I am always tired. Clyde talked about deer urine or something like it this morning that is supposed to help with recovery. Maybe??
