5K race yesterday. The cutback in mileage has really slowed my down. I was 1:13 slower than in 2012 for the same race. Still won my age group though.

3.5 miles yesterday. First time I have run in almost two weeks. Of course the old IT Band flared up again for some unknown reason. Probably because I have been unable to do any strength work in the last two weeks as well.

10 miles. Annual trail race at the local state park. This year is my slowest. Off my best time by about 5 minutes.

+123 since last post, with marathon #5 in the books. Shocked myself by running a sub-3:30 despite missing three weeks right in the middle of my training cycle. Just must've had a good day, but I'll take it!

Mursilis, you are the man without a doubt!

+3 tonight. Got a touch of the flu and that was a chore.

Haha, thanks! Still, this same month a runner in my club ran a 2:44 in the full at age 47! :eek: I tell him that when I grow up, I want to be him! :D There's some fast folks out there, especially in my area, which keeps me humble, but I'm pretty happy with what I've achieved so far. I definitely didn't think I'd have run some of the times I've run when I first started this whole thing.

3 on the dreadmill before I broke down psychologically. Neighborhood turkey trot coming up. Going for a 3-peat.
