In case anyone was interested, it was freakin cold. I didn't make the time I wanted by quite a wide margin. I don't have my official time yet, but by my estimates it in the neighborhod of 5:45
Sweetness! You ran it, eh?
Stiff?
I'm hobbling around like a bowlegged cowboy who just rode his overfed mule 50 miles through a rocky canyon.... or something like that.
I didn't quite hit my 8 minute miles, but close - 8:03min/mile for a total time of about 3:32.
Off to bed again! I'll probably try to jump out of bed in the morning, my legs won't respond, and I'll crash down on my roomie (who also ran it) and then lie on the floor for a couple more hours...
Good work midnightrat! By the way, you can check the website and put in your name and it tells you your times and pace and everything.

be sure to pre-load the night before with at least the following:
2 chicago-style hot dogs with everything,
2 italian beefs, and
2 slices of chicago-style deep dish pepperoni pizza (lou malnati's is the bomb).
This will no doubt help your quest for 8 minute miles.
