I was feeling much better today and the weather was perfect. After about a 5 mile warm up I did 5 x 1 mile repeats on the track (6:15, 6;10, 6:13, 6:17, 6:20). I started to feel the lactic acid build up on the last one. I did half mile recoveries then finished with about a mile cool down.

Total run: 13 miles AP 7:31

I was surprised I averaged such a fast pace considering all the slow recovery laps I did.

A five mile warm up? It's amazing how much we have in common with running and yet how very different we are too. 5 mile warm up before you even get down to work? My long run last Saturday was 4 miles.

Thanks Tim.

Mack, it just takes me a bit to get all warmed up for speed work.

Thanks Smooth. I gave Doone a big hug. And thanks for the message you sent her. I did not read it, but she said you had sent her a message and her spirits seemed to have been lifted by it. You have a special gift in that you have the ability to make everyone feel special. I guess that's why we all love you so much. Thanks for being you.
