I ran the Payson Park Loop but I cut out the rollers, I wasn't feeling to good on the way out and then on the way back I got passed by my son Ethan's cross country coach, Jennifer Hughes so I just tried to keep a reasonable gap hoping it would motivate me... Bad idea, good idea? I was able to keep the gap the same and then with about a mile to go she slowed down just a little so I could catch her and she ran me in that last mile. It pretty much killed me but I'm glad I did it because I was able to turn a bad run into a good run and that is a good thing. I had MP miles of 7:56, 7:16, 7:33, my average pace was 8:20 with a total time of 51:57. So it was a good run and it turned out totally differnet than I thought it would, half way through I thought it was going to be one of those tough runs and it was tough but good at the same time.
See ya tomorrow.
