| Easy run this afternoon with 10 hill sprints after that. Loosened up as the run went on, which is good. Sprints didn't feel very fast, but I was still a bit stiff in the glutes. Adquate, I'd say. |

Today is Patriots Day. Which means friends of mine, real and virtual, lined up in Hopkinton this morning and set out on the journey into Boston.
I'm kinda wistful about that. I wish I'd been there. I know I'll be there in 52 weeks, unless I screw up the registration or they change the qualification standards, but still. Boston has been my goal, but in the past I haven't known people who were running, with the exception of Bill last year (and he crashed and burned). This time, I have a lot of friends up there. RWOLites, fellow Crackheads, even someone who trains in J.B. Hunt Park too (she DNFd, crashed and burned in the last mile or so).
Next year, it's me toeing the line. My training put to the test. I have 363 days to get ready without getting hurt.
Easy run tonight, 5 or so. Intervals tomorrow at FHS with Jason after work, as I sharpen for Toad Suck. Which I am now officially registered to run. |

| Intervals at the FHS track tonight. Wasn't quite sure how this was going to work. Turns out that a local triathlon coach was running the thing; he assigned us to do 4 X 800, negative split -- second 400 faster than the first. Since my schedule for tonight was 4 X 1200, it wasn't that much less, and the intensity of this was actually better; the 4X12 was to be at 10K pace, and this was faster. Probably the first 400 was at 10K pace, the second one closer to 5K pace. Did that, warmed down for about 2 miles, then decided to do another 800 at GMP, which worked out pretty well. Only did 5.5 total, but I think it was a good efficient workout. |

| Fun run from Fleet Feet to Lake Fayetteville and back. Enough hills to make it interesting. Also snagged a free singlet upon my return to the store, which is nice. Tomorrow, another fun run from Clubhaus Fitness, with some beer involved afterward. |

| Fun run from Clubhaus Fitness on Dickson to and around Wilson Park. Hilly. Kept the pace pretty brisk, running with one of the guys from the Fleet Feet store. Average pace 8:45, with 8:22 for the last mile, so I'd call that a moderate pace. Couple of beers from Hoghaus afterward. Haven't had a brew in a long time, certainly not since the split. Tasted good. |
