Run Run Run

I finally beat Pachev!

Except it was Sasha's 6 year old daughter! My amazing speed of my 54 year old body held her off and beat her by 1 second. I dont think Ill be able to beat her next year

Last year I ran 29:10 and placed 3rd in my age group. This year I run 26:22 and didnt place - oh well - at least I improved

First mile of race is downhill, 2nd mile uphill and 3rd mile downhill

Alexander my 10 year old won his age group, wish I could pace him like some of the younger fathers do, but still he does well and tries hard

I even ran the mile back and slightly uphill to the car after the race - first time Ive done that

My body was tired after running two 5K races in 3 days, still I ran today for over 45 minutes even with bad shoes. I feel good that at least Im trying to do more. Need to do better routine of stretching and develop a better running stick-to schedule. I wish it wouldnt get so hot so I could run more at lunch time - I dont do well nor do I like running in hot sun

I took James suggestion and ran in the morning when it is cooler. Luckily I could run this morning as I had to take Alex to docter appointment so I had time to run today, usually I have to go to work so early its hard to run in the morning but Ill have to see if I can do it my getting up early

I was rather slow this morning but ran 45 minutes so Im assuming I ran at about 5 miles

Dimple Dell Long run for me - longest Ive run since who knows when - High School?

Abit challenging as trails are abit too sandy for my desired running traction

Ran about 6 miles
