1 mile warmup. 5 miles of random hills (treadmill) at 7:00 pace, Level 7. It's amazing how much easier it is to run Level 7 than 9.

Got my first official journal article submitted today. It probably won't get accepted the first time around, but it's an important first step to getting it published.

I'm signed up for a little 5K in Lehi, UT on Saturday.

This morning I ran the Renaissance Academy Race for Literacy 5K in Lehi, UT. It was a nice morning for a race, and the course was pretty flat. I wasn't sure how the competition would be, so I figured I'd play it by ear. I noticed Allie (from the blog) at the start, so I figured she'd be someone good to run with since she is a marathon winner. Sure enough, we ran together through the first 2+ miles (after passing some elementary kids who sprinted out at the front). Another guy ran with us till the 2-mile mark but then had to stop for some refreshment at the aid station. I felt pretty comfortable in the first two miles, but I wasn't sure if Allie was just toying with me, so I started pushing the pace at 2 miles to see what would happen. I guess Allie's marathon last week was still in her legs, because she let me win.

I got a gift certificate for a pair of Pearl Izumi shoes. Perfect because I have been wanting to get some racing shoes.

This week I didn't reach 20 miles, so maybe I'll throw in some more miles tonight if I'm feeling ambitious.
