We left the BYU invite today about 10:30am because it had rained
like crazy all morning and we didn't want kids getting sick or hurt. I
did watch the boys 3200 where Hayden and Steve ran very well. I
went out on my own for five miles on a loop up by the Temple. The wind
was a pretty strong North wind but no rain at the time. As I turned
North by the Temple I turned in front a woman heading the same
direction. I didn't think anything about her keeping up and kept running at a
decent pace into the wind. When I turned around I realized that she
had stuck right behind me for about a mile, I was surprised! When I
passed her she told me "Good Pace"! Well that got my shorts in a bunch
real quick. It sucks bad enough to lose all of my fitness and not be
able to get it back yet, and then have some lady tell me I was doing good
eventhough she was keeping up with me. She had no clue who she was
talking to, and how dare she belittle my pace and treat me like I was
some 3:20 guy and act like she was some Olympic champion. The audacity! Anyway
it made me mad enough that I through down a couple 6 minute miles at
the end of my run. I have never been passed by a girl on a training
run, and will never be, as long as the old sexies are still able to turn over. I also went to the gym and lifted upper and lower body. I am trashed today, but it feels good.
