After work I biked with Heath until his back tire exploded. I caught up with cathy to finish out my ride. Not bad for a recovery day.

Ran easy 4 miles at 7:45 pace. Very flat course

Wasn't planning on a tempo run but the day was so perfect I had to run. I ran from my office to the Dixie Ctr and back. I had a head wind on the way there and was thinking how much fun my run was going to be running back on a downhill and with a tail wind. Well... the wind shifted and I got a strong headwind coming back. All good, I guess!? My 8 mile time was 58:23. Anything under a hour is good! SPlits: 7:38, 7:21, 7:23, 7:20, 7:15, 7:12, 7:12, 7:04

1 hr spinervals on the trainer

We were rain out so we hit the rec ctr treadmills. I must be a little tired because a 10 min pace was killing me. I worked up 0.1 mph every quarter mile. I got to a 8:20 pace and cathy said I was taking too long and was time to go home. I jumped up to a 7:30 pace for the next 3/4 mile and called it quits.

Ran trails with cathy, chelsea, and tige. Took a new trail called suicidal tendencies. Totally worth the run to the top. The wind was brutal but over all worth it. Splits: 14:03, 12:55, 13:25, 12:32, 16:03, 10:33, 8:15, 8:29, 10:13, 7:59, 8:55, 8:16. Can you tell by the splits when the others quit?
