Met with the famous BBK runners this morning at 5:15 and did a 3 mile warm up. Then another mile on the track with 4x100 sprints and then did 4x800s. 2:26, 2:32,2:35,2:32. Then had to go to work.  I could tell I was excited to do these 800s from my first one.  I hope to be able to bust out a 2:26 marathon! Sweet! As per Yassos method. But I could see my average for 4 is 2:31. So Ive got more work to do. Fun to see those Butt Kickers! Its been a while!

Went to Liberty park and did 8 more miles. 1.5 warmup then 2x800s (2:32, 2:36) then did progressive running afterwards. I did my 3rd loop in 7:50 and my 5th loop in 6:34 pace. Very hot out but glad I got it in. Tons of runners in the park today! And the water fountain saved my butt!

Met with the BBK's and ran 3 easy with a few of them and then did a tempo workout. I did a 4 mile tempo with the following splits: 5:34, 5:40,5:47, 5:42.  I love running in the morning! I wished I could do these splits in the evening without trouble.  Oh by the way...I saw a huge Crawdad along the river on the asphault. It was a baby lobster! about 6" long.  A real beauty! (he says in his Steve Irwin voice) 

I went on my lunch break to Liberty Park and did 4 loops to hit 6 miles total in 41 minutes.
