| I got out with Larry and Kevin this morning. We did a 4+ mile loop through Lindon then added some at the end to get to 5 miles. It was 27°, but I dressed like I do when the temperature is in the teens. I don't know if it's the morning breezes, the higher humidity, or just old age, but I've been feeling colder in the mornings these last couple of weeks. |

| Larry, Kevin and I started out. We tool a short loop back because Larry had to get back home, then Kevin and I ran the neighborhood 5K route to get to 5+ miles. As is normal when I run with Kevin, the pace picked up for the second half, with one mile actually at 8:33/mi. I've learned that "fast" is relative. |

| Some easy solo miles, about 10:00/mi. I knew I had a basketball game in the evening and wanted to save a little bit for that. |

| Solo again, but maybe it saved me some embarrassment. After last night's basketball game, I had no energy this morning. Took it very easy, 10:26/mi. |

| It was nice to have Larry, Wayne, and Kevin all out for a 10 mile run this morning, the first double digit run of the season for all of us I think. I was content to take it easy for the first 8 miles. Kevin and Wayne pulled ahead and then doubled back a couple of times. With just under 2 miles to go they were about 1/4 mile ahead of us. I decided to pick it up and see if I could close the gap. I closed it some, but they pushed their pace down to 8:20/mi then down to 7:40/mi so I never caught them. I didn't have my Garmin so I don't know what my pace was. I assume it was around 8:00/mi, maybe a little under for a while, during the last 1.5 to 2 miles. At this point, Kevin and Wayne are both quite clearly in better running condition than I am. I made sure to remind them, however, that neither of them will beat me in a race this year. It was all in good fun. Honestly, I hope they do beat me, but I plan to make them earn it if they do. |
