I ran with my kids today and had them do a tempo run at what we call MP. Since the kids don't have a true marathon pace I made one up for them. They aren't used to my philosophies, but seem hungry to learn and get better, so it will be a good group to work with. I took it easy and ran with the middle pack since their tempo pace was my easy pace, it worked out nicely.

I still feel crappy and haven't run much this week, so I might bag the race tomorrow? However, I hate bagging races so I might show up and just run for fun. I will have to see how good I feel in the morning. My flu bug hasn't ever turned into full-blown anything yet, but I have felt really hammered and tired for a week now, like my body is still battling it. I need to kick this thing this weekend so I can make a good contribution to our soon to be dominating team at Del Sol!
