Cool and beautiful morning for my penultimate speed workout. Another marathon simulation workout. 5M @ 5:15-5:18 + 1M hard. Hit all five in the 5:13-5:18 range and they all felt really good. Set up water stations and took 6+ ounces at 1,3 and 5. So I'm watering well. The final mile was in 5:00 so that felt nice especially considering the miserable workoute at Redmond HS on Wednesday. Feeling much better about things.

Sunday night I fly to SFO for Monday meetings and then back that night. So I will get one last run along Embarcadero before the race.

Hi Sean,

Snoqualmie posted a comment on my blog recomming I take a look at your blog. She mentioned you were aiming to qualify for the olypmics.

It's also a 'long-term' goal/dream i have... but know it's very hard to attachieve...and looking at your stats I can see your a very good runner...

Do you have any advice for someone starting down this path.

Impressive stats by the way.

Regards,

Aaron
