Weather - 77 degrees, sunny.

Beautifully warm day. Ran 4 easy miles around the arboretum, finished 4 minutes faster than normal. My body is beginning to respond to my desire for harder efforts. I am feeling a bit sore from yesterday, so I may delay the 2 hour long run until Saturday so I can have an extra day of recovery.

Hey Will - Sorry I've been MIA lately. How's the training going? Looks like you're doing pretty well considering a hardworkout/11 mile day just after a race! :) Way to go! Almost at 200 now, start planning the party!

Benn, just read your latest entry, strange how a person go through so much in 1 weeks time, and then months go by without a hiccup. Happy 22! I hate to admit it, but a couple of weeks ago my friend Michelle was telling me that "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" reveals that 42 is the most boring number in the universe. "Great", I thought, "in a couple of weeks I will be 42". As long as I can run, I think 42 will be ok!
