I ran 6.3 easy miles with Larry this morning. I enjoyed the run and the conversation, as I always do with Larry. Kevin was a no-show.
At lunchtime Tom, Cory, Nathan, and I ran the Lake View run. Darin and Kevin White had run it earlier and said the trail over wasn't too muddy. Shortly after we got to the asphalt we started a 3 mile tempo run with a goal pace of 7:00/mi. Our mile splits were 7:01, 6:56, and 6:54. We all felt very good about the run, except maybe Cory. He was slightly behind the rest of us and made some negative comment about his performance, but given the limited training he's been able to do because of the foot injury he's been fighting all winter, he should feel very good about his performance. I was impressed. I also had a church basketball game at 10:00pm. My legs were beat and I would have skipped it but I felt obligated to go. We only had 6 players. I managed to run up and down the floor okay, but I got to experience firsthand the effect of tired legs on shooting.
