I took it real easy today as I am running the Speedy Spaniard 10K tomorrow morning so I juts ran a couple miles with my son Ethan. The pace was nice and easy, 9:30 average with a total time of 19:36, about half way through the run we had a dog following us and we couldn't get rid of him and then he jumped into the canal and he was stuck so then we had to help him out, the stupid thing, so we finally was able to get him out and then finish our run. On the way back my friend was coming along canal road in his truck and asked if we had seen a stray dog and we told him the story and then we guided him to his dog. So all is well. For the race tomorrow I don't think I be able to PR like I did a few years ago but I just want to get the legs going and then keep them going and see what happens. I finished up with some strength training on my upper body and then some push-ups.

Kayano 16 Red Miles: 2.10

Good luck tomorrow Clay. Neither Kim or I are running the race but we will be out and about and maybe we'll see you whiz by.
