5.5 easy miles late at night.  legs still traumatized.

8.5 in the late afternoon.  wanted to go longer but after about 6 slow miles the legs just felt the trauma of last weekend.  hopefully they start feeling better asap.

AM-  Met up with Greg at CV track for a 6X1600m workout with 800m jog in between.  I was a little worried about being able to finish this workout hitting respectable times.

1 5:43

2 5:32(my fault, i set the pace on this one)a little faster than we wanted this early

3 5:34

4 5:25(greg was right on my tail pushing me)

5 5:29 starting to feel my legs are getting tired

6 5:28(It was my turn to lead off but greg wanted to hit 5:20 or better so i told him he better lead out cause i didn't have one of those in me.  I hit the first lap in 1:20 and the half in 2:45 and then just tried to push hard to the end.  Overall a great workout and it was definitely easier and more productive to run with Greg. Thanks Greg.

5.5 easy this morning.  slept in a bit then went out for a short run.  legs tired but i think they will come around.

A good race to have over.  Course was about what I expected but those hills were a beast.  James Holt and I ran together all the way out to the turnaround and on the way back we were never really that far away from each other.  At about mile twelve we were right together.  It was nice to have him around otherwise it would have been very lonely.  My legs didn't really feel very good right from the start(still not recovered from track workouts and last weekend).  I don't think James was very rested either.

This was a good training run for me.  It is a race that i would do again but i probably wouldn't look forward to it like i do some of the other races.
