Standard Tuesday morning run with Larry with a slight variation. I overslept and was a few minutes late getting out. In my rush, I started up 180 W. to 2000 N. (Monday's course) instead of up Main St. I realized my error before I got to 2000 N. and then had to run a couple of extra blocks up 2000 N. I caught up with Larry near the top of the hill and found out I had started before him. Oh well, we had a nice easy run together. Average pace was about 9:00 for me.

Paul - I've been watching your training for the last few weeks. Looks like you are at a steady 40 miles per week. I think you will benefit from bring it up a bit higher - try 45-50, and spread it as even as possible throughout the week.
