Yeah, it's starting to warm up here too. I sure hope I get a decent BQ time at UVM in June so I don't have to train hard through the summer to run fast at Pocatello in September. I'd much rather just build base miles this summer and take it easy.

I'm glad it hasn't started warming up here. Nice pace in the heat.

good idea Rhett - when is UVM? June?

thanks Dale!

June 6th, so I don't have a lot of time. I have readjusted my goals and decided to just go for a 5 minute BQ cushion so I am just shooting for a 3:10 or better. Back when I was healthy in December I was hoping to run a 2:50, but that is out of the question with all the stupid set backs I've had.

UVM is June 11th, six weeks from this Sat. Hopefully we have as nice weather condition as last year!

NICE JOB Tim running in that heat! We still have lots of snow in the mountains, it's supposed to get cold again tomorrow back in the 30s! Crazy! I rather have it cold than hot though! They are worried about flooding when the temp heats up too fast and the streams can't handle the run offs from the heavy snow pack!
