I ran the water tank road with Larry and Wayne this morning. I was ready early this morning so I put in an easy mile before meeting up with them. We normally try to get from home to the top in just under 30 minutes. We pushed a little harder today and I got to the top in 28:50. We've done it faster, but it was still a pretty good run. Wayne started pulling away going up the first of the five hills. I decided to stay with Larry until hill three and then try to catch Wayne. I caught him and ran with him for a bit near the end of hill four. I then pushed hard up hill five and beat him to the top by a few seconds. We took it easy coming back down the dirt road. I couldn't resist pushing again down my favorite hill from 400 E. to Main on 1600 North. I held back a little because I didn't want to risk pulling something, and still managed a 6:21 pace for that half mile. I've really been enjoying my runs this week and my legs are feeling pretty good (knock on wood).
