4.5/4.5 Today. My partner's back in action. I felt like it was too easy though. I had to go at a slow pace 'cause my partner's a little slow. And I feel like when I'm going slow, it puts more stress on my ankles. Whatever...

My knees get sore if I run for extended periods of time below my normal pace. And this is why my training plan is so grueling...

Did 4 miles today. Played an hour of basketball this morning too. Don't feel a thing. I don't think I'm doing it right. I should be sore like a mofo like my friend...

Nice run, Mega! I've logged 30 miles so far this week. Man, taking 8 days off did a number on my legs! They've been sore all week! I have a 10K race tomorrow that I am doing just to try to help my team out, but I don't know if my legs will be able to handle running any faster than a slow plod!

Thing is, a slow plod for you would be an all out, adrenaline induced sprint, like my life depended on it. Matt, you'll do great. :beer:

Nice job, dude! Beat me this week (only did low 40s). Well, I ran the 10K this morning, wish I could say I raced it but there is no way I can use that word to describe what I did. The first mile is straight downhill, and even trying to run slow, I logged a 5:16, and was in probably 30-40th place. After that, the wheels fell off as I slowed down like crazy; was doing about 6:30 pace at the end. I didn't feel like I was hurting and my breathing was fine, my legs just couldn't go any faster. Oh well, I can only improve from this point on! Did about 12 miles total.

35 miles this week. Ran the North Carolina Roadrunner's Club Invitational 1/2 marathon this morning. The course was through Ulmstead state park in Raleigh. I don't seem to recall a flat section. There was a part called Cemetery Hill...the horrors, the horrors. Did it in 1:38:47, just 12 seconds off my personal record (set on a flat rail-trail course). Not sure how I did it, but I have been doing a lot of speed work lately.

Just looked up the official times. The above time was the gun time. My chip time was 1:38:34 which is a new PR by 1 second!

+13 yesterday.

The boy and I did a half-marathon. I can't imagine doing that at his age (12), but he was a trooper and finished strong. 2:08 - I was impressed!

+3 yesterday.

I slacked off most of this week after doing something weird to my shins on Monday/Tuesday. Time to get off my ass.
