prlmanrunning

Another fun filled sunday sleeping in until all of 730 lol and then up and out on the road by 840 with a soaring spirit out to let the road take me where it will soon finding a great pace my body gets into rythm with my mind and breathing really the universe or so it seems out redwood and east on 126th to 7th east smooth and steady north to 106th south and west to the trail turning south again and to 104th and back home with the feeling i could have kept going  although wanted to still have some sort of energy left for softball at two no double header today which is good since it was hot out  we really had fun not sure the other team did game ended with us up 26 to 1but we and they were good sports about the whole thing fun all the way around it is just a game lol

 And then (this for you laputka didnt want to be called a slacker this time) 15 miles on the mountain bike to loosen back up and work on my turn over rate not sure if it really makes all that much cross over but keep convincing myself it does psychologically any way now to relax and get prepared for the great work week lol

took a bit of convincing to get myself actually out and running tonight legs were feeling a bit sluggish so i went at a more moderate pace just keeping loose and working it through after the 2nd mile or so started to feel much better so i continued on my temple route plus oh so much better for talking myself into it  i knew if i didnt though i really would have felt guilty later :)

wow what a really strange night besides getting out very late found it hard to really get into my zone feeling off almost forcing myself to keep going somehow managed to get a little over 9 in on my 27th west loop but really hard to find focus true test of  how to keep myself going through not so great circumstances all in all was ok run far from outstanding though

long day at work got some good core work though unloading ocean containers so was already a bit fatigued by the time i got started on my road work slow and methodical was the primary focus letting the day melt away and night take over sunset was awesome as ever even the construction at 114th and 7th east didnt bother so much tonight lol quiet night for traffic so more enjoyable than some nights rolling over different strategies on how to attack saturdays 10k or just go for fun times (either way it will be fun :) ) 

late start not sure what prompted me to go at the pace i started at but a mile in realized i was at a fairly fast pace but everything was feeling good so i went with it and just kept on keeping on :) mind wandering aimlessly through insignificant thoughts and body in machine mode having a great run hopefully it carries over to saturday

late evening pre race loosen up run after a nice size mexican dinner the two just do not mix lol good thing it is just an easy run had to pit stop twice yikes  any way got a few easy ones in all the same and home to get some rest for morning 

so still not over the mexican dinner not much energy going this morning not much sleep like mexican food plenty just keep away from it the night before race showed up in plenty of time loosen up and then pit stop again not good found nancy and nicole for a nice visit waiting for race to start still just not feeling it race starts i go out at a good fast pace but just no energy pushing on anyway thinking since i am here i have to try and get some good work in so keep plugging away first lap fairly decent get to mile 4 finally get into some sort of rythm and push through to the finish not my fastest but still not disappointed not too far back 10th over all and 4th in my div (man a lot of fast guys in my bracket lol) live and learn some good lessons
