Medium run today.  Met up with Mark for a 4:30am start...the alarm call was not a pleasant one.  However, a good run.  8:02 min/mile average so nothing special, but not super easy either.  Conditions were cooler than Saturday, but still pretty humid.

Couldn’t face the early morning alarm call this morning so needed to run after work.  It was a little warm, but not too bad.  Ran 5 ¾ easy miles.  Could have gone further, but I’ll be doing a pace run in about 9 hours…yes that’s the price I pay for sleeping in this morning.

Cooler, but very humid this morning.  It rained very briefly when I took for the pup out for a short walk.  I got back drank some more Gatorade, and then headed off to meet Mark and Frank.  Legs felt very tired the first couple of miles.  However, they felt better for the middle 3 miles.  I then sped up n the last 2 miles.  That didn’t feel good, but wanted to push on tired legs.  Average pace for the 7 miles was 7:14, which is 10 seconds that my BQ MGP, but if I could run 3:10 (7:15 pace) in San Antonio I would be very happy indeed….that’s why I’m putting down 7 at MGP.
