AM - 15 Big Workout #16 - 6x1000's w/ 200 jog recovery. Up beyond early to meet Logan and Clyde at the track at 4:00. Warmed up for 5 up Green Springs w/ 2 at Tinman. These felt a little strained, and I was worried that I wasn't going to do well on these (especially the way I have been running). Goal time 3:20 (5:20 pace) 1-3:15 felt pretty good, surprised that I did so well; 2-3:17 just wanted to keep them flowing at a steady pace; 3-3:15 Again still feeling pretty solid, almost like I could even go faster, but I tried to run within myself knowing I still had 1/2 the workout to go; 4-3:13 wanted to take a second off each one to end it; 5-3:11 really felt strong on this one; 6-3:10 had to work it a little to hit the time, but did it and let out a little victory yell to congratulate myself and started to dry-heaving. Cooled down with 1 on the track and then 4 out to factory stores and back. Great workout; felt pretty pleased with it. Next time I will go into it with a little more confidence. (Stratus Bee 145.2)

That is insanely early! But when it comes to running we will do anything. Last sept I talked my friends into meeting me at 3 am to run the 17 mi loop on weekday cuz I was going out of town and wanted to make sure I got a long run in. Us crazy runners!

The real funny thing is that they joined you!

Coach! What are you talking about?! Haha I am doing XC! I would be crazy if I didn't do it! I have just been gone for 2 weeks so I haven't been able to go to practice. How are things at PV? Oh I miss going to XC there! :( Well I am definitely doing Cross Country! I miss all you guys!

Good job pushing it this morning. I like you will go into the next one feeling a little more comfortable about things.

Man on fire! your a freak of nature! Thanks for the invite. I had a blast.

Thanks for the tinman info. You are doing awesome. I am now into my healthier, smarter eating phase of marathon training. I need to drop 4-5 lbs before SGM. A few less pounds for me will translate into about a 5 sec per mile gain. My goal is 154-155 on race day.
