Went down to the Park Trail and ran 8 miles.  Started out with Misty and Danielle. after 2 miles Danielle went back from IT band pain in her leg. So I ran by myself the rest of the way. I caught Misty in the last mile and finished with her. It was a nice morning about 40 degrees. Yes you Arizona runners that is nice for us!

Went up to Kellis house and ran with the BBK group. We did a 3 mile warmup, then Scott and I went off on a 8 minute pace and increased our miles every mile. Our first 4 miles were up hill with some steep hill climbs.  Our last 3 or so were downhill to push our pace to a 6:49 the last 3. We ran a total of 10 miles and it was a nice morning. About 48 degrees.

Went down to the parktrail at 98th and ran with the BBK group. Met up with Michelle, Rachelle, Kelli, Lisa, and whoever the heck was there in the dark and did a 3 mile warm up then I did 2x3 mile marathon tempo paced runs. The first tempo was actually slower than marathon. About a 6:35 pace. My IT band was hurting this morning when I was running slower. When I sped up it was better for me. Made it 10.25 miles

Went to 700 W. and 90th south park trail entrance and ran north with Charity, Misty and Danielle. I made it 5 miles out and ran with Danielle most of the way until her knee hurt her by then she had caught up to Misty and Charity. I went off on my own with a 7 minute mile and the last mile was 6:35.  It was 54 degrees with some wind.

It was another interesting day in Eden today! I took James up to the start of the 30k race and it started to rain pretty hard right at the start.  I told James that I wanted to run a 5:45-5:50 pace and he thought that he could do it. We started our first mile in 6:10. Then the second mile we hit a 5:39 to bring it closer to a 5:50 pace. James started to feel horrible from a IT band or something and couldnt go on . So I found myself all alone. I tried to keep that 5:50 pace and this is how it went. 1: 6:10, 2: 5:39, 3: 5:45, 4: 5:52, 5: 5:50, 6: 5:55, 7: 6:04, 8: 6:06, 9: 5:56, 10: 5:58, 11:5:47, 12: 5:54, 13: 5:56, 14: 5:57, 15: 6:11, 16:6:12, 17: 6:09, 18: 6:18, .6: 3:58.  There was a head wind blowing the entire way in both directions. I couldnt believe it but thats the way it went.  I held on to win it and complete the 5 race series with an overall win. They told me its a course record but I believe Paul ran a faster 30k a few years ago. They may have changed the course so Ill take it! Sorry Paul win some lose some. lol
