Carl special: start too fast and finish poorly; someday I'll learn to race smarter, Saturday was not that day.

Had a fun time chit chatting w/ people afterwards; sad I missed some peeps.

Had no idea what to expect. Pleasantly surprised. Started way too fast. Not sure what I was thinking. Mile 3 and 4 about killed me. Mile 5 found another level. Confidence builder for me. 30 sec pr. Happy. :) But wish I could have been under 47.

Had just the best time. Work friends. Running friends. Old friends. New friends. Loved it. Pink Gorilla making me feel like one of the guys. :). Would have been a perfect day if one more person could have been there.


Post celebratory bottle of wine at Glacial Till with Guru of Masters, Ivan, and Guru of All Things, Carolyn.

Props to all that ran today. Well done. And kudos to Ben, Jason and Zach. Stellar.

Really missed daLenz with the smile. Wasn't the same.

Have a great rest of the weekend. :)

Tried to stay conservative at the start. Always kind of a cluster getting around people. First 3 in 6:08/6:11/6:09 felt like I wasn't redlining but working hard. Course is deceptively hilly and the wheels came off a bit again but not terrible: 6:31/6:24/6:32. Pretty hard effort over the last mile still trying to catch ladies. Always fun passing people the whole way. Age grades to 33:30...I'll take that for my current shape.

Always a fun race, and very happy with my time! I haven't been going many fast training runs, so I wasn't sure what to expect today. Started out pretty fast but I was able to hold the pace throughout for the most part. Good seeing such a great crowd out there!

My goal was to average between 7:30 and 7:50 overall so I guess I can call this a success. One of my slowest but the time actually seemed to go by pretty fast. Ran the first circuit with Rob Cubrich; that was good for me since I was feeling a bit depressed seeing people I used to be able to run with leave me in the dust. He reminded me that its a blessing to be able to keep doing this regardless of the pace.

After he turned in I ran my worst mile of the day and a newbie who said he wanted to run 1:50 caught me and asked if this pace was too slow. I wanted to slap him but he also told me he could bench press 315 pounds so I let it go. It must have been too slow for him because he took off at Boy Scout Island and finished 3 minutes ahead of me.

Good for me he left because I was able to crank up the tunes and focus on my pace. Throwing out that bad mile I ended up running the rest only 2 seconds per mile slower than the first half. My time projects out to about a 3:29 marathon and my BQ is 3:40 so I'm doing ok.
  • moxie moxie Not bad work at all. You should've slapped him. For the extra motivation. No way you couldn't out run him then.

Planned to go about 15 today but I'm still getting some twinges in the achilles and figured it would be smarter to just lay off. Still no swelling so hopefully it won't last too long. They aren't painful enough where I couldn't run but I don't see any point in losing the progress I've made.

Had signed up for Leprechaun Chase this afternoon but a Father-Daughter dance trumps driving to Ashland.

Great morning weather wise, couldn't ask for better. Woke up yesterday with a sore right knee. Not so bad as long as I keep my stride just right. Up and down hills was interesting. Going to pass on LC10k. Good luck to everyone racing today. Guess we will go to my uncle's 90th birthday celebration this afternoon. 90 doesn't seem that far away anymore. :)
