<p>37m 12s - 4.15 miles - 08m 58s/Mi<br><br>
7:15 AM <br><br>
Equipment: Nike Pegasus 01/11<br><br>
Cold/mid 20s - sunny and calm. Crawford/Puckett/Security/Kiva/Fontaine/Grinnell/Crawford/Upton/home. Short easy pace run. Stretching afterward.</p>

<p>Thor - nice placing in your 5K. The front end of the 5K here was really fast too. You would have been 5th Master, just behind a 64 year old guy who ran 17:39! First place overall was a 42 year old who ran 15:07, but he's a 3 time Olympian and this was a slow time for him.</p>

<p>6.5miles recovery run.  Felt easy and smooth.  I had a little pull in my groin toward the end of the 20 yesterday and was a bit worried but it is gone.  Ankle is not causing any concerns either.  I did sign up for the half this Sunday.  Will start easy and bring the effort to the max for the last 5k.  It will be a good test to my patiance.  Looking forward to it. </p>

<p>3 mile monday....</p>
<p> </p>
<p>32:52 -- wow! Less than an 11:00 pace.  Not much less, but less. <br>
10:49<br>
11:36<br>
10:26 (faster than the first!!!)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My 5k PR is 32:02....so, I'm pretty sure that means that this was a good run this morning.</p>
<p>Neither one of use felt great....legs a little less bouncy than we'd like, but still...managed a nice run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Having that last mile faster than the first has been something I haven't seen in awhile. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yesterday.... we rode, and Ms. Rabbit got to experience "fitness hill" :)  Her reaction:  "I sweart to God if I can walk when we get home, I'm going to kick your a$$!"  lol</p>
<p>I told her she'd have to catch me first.  I'll likely pay for that tomorrow on the track, but it was nice to give it back.   </p>
<p>At  breakfast on Saturday, the dude who paced me to that PR challenged me to get sub-30 this year.  Intimidating....yup.  But, looking at this now..... dunno.  At least I can see the tunnel of that 30-min mark whereas up to now....I wasn't even sure the tunnel even existed, if you know what I mean.</p>

<p>P90x at the crack of dawn this morning, 30 minutes with Coach Troy on the trainer this afternoon. That is enough for today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>DH is doing P90x with me and is really enjoying it. It's much easier getting out of bed at 4:30am when we both do it. <span><img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"></span></p>

<p>Ended up sweating in the studio, awesome and intense class.  Allergies have been KILLING me lately, last night was the first time in a few days that I didn't have a spastic asthmatic coughing attack.  Boooo for pollen season!  Fortunately it's raining today which will calm things down.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Great Monday workouts all!</p>

<p>I am loving DST because last night after work it was light out when I ran.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>3.8mi run around the Charles after work -- my longest run since last November.  I am going to try and put a back-to-back tonight with another run. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Running, my old friend, I have missed you.</p>
