Fuel SMART,Train HARD, Run FAST.

6 miles with Karen down Main. The amount of whistles, hollers, and men hanging half thier bodies out of thier car window's, were many this evening. I've never had that problem before. Karen was wearing a cute skirt and the men couldn't resist. Who knew Main Street Centerville was filled with so many testostone filled men. We decided to run up to 400E in the construction zone so we could talk and carry on a conversation.

6:45AM-  Davis Blvd. Overcast, windy, 80% humidity, 66 degrees but the wind made it feel cooler, which was nice. Ran up 400 N to Davis Blvd. First mi up was around 11:00 mins.

Turned around for an impromptu progressive run for 4.66 mi. Took a bathroom break half way at Lewis Park. Splits were  7:38, 6:59, 6:52, 6:27, 6:05 (.66)= 6:52AP. Overall, it felt felt pretty effortless for the pace, even with a decent headwind on the way back. I didn't start to feel it till the last mile, which was downhill. 

The time passed quickly chasing a speedy HS boy, who passed me at a blazing speed. I stayed on his tail to keep a steady pace. After a mile, he stopped and gasped for air on the side of the street for about 5 seconds until he turned around and saw I was right there, then he picked it up again for another mile before stopping altogether. I'm happy with the splits becuase it didn't think I was going too fast:) Felt good overall- yet flubbery. 8mi@ 7:32ap.

10.5 with Matt W., and Scott W. to Twin Peaks.

645am- easy 4.25 down Main. Turned around and did Fartlek, 7:17ap back.

8x60 @ 5k pace with 2:00 active rest

5x30 sprints with 1 min active rest

Felt okay, but sluggish to get to top speeds.

I always like Main because you can always get  some  added hill work in that mimics most hills on a course,. Lots of gradual long rollers  that aren't too taxing upfront but challenge your mentality.

2 mile walk with Steve and Lucy.
