<p>Morning everyone.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had a pretty nice 10 miler yesterday, besides being attacked by a dog anyways.  Why in the world would you take a dog to the park that is willing to bite somebody?! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>SRD today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hawk- Nice goin on the half yesterday!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>RA- Good luck at your half today.  The last time you acted like you were ill prepared you walked away w/ a PR...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mom- Have fun on the Century</p>

<p>So, as crappy as I felt yesterday, I managed to pull out a good race this morning and lower my HM PR a bit more.  Well, a lot more.  I felt flat at the start and thought that I would not be able to hold a 6:30 mpm pace.  I was wrong. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I hit 5 miles in 32:48 and then 1:05:23 at the 10 mile split, which was 1 minute ahead of my time at the Rock'n'Roll HM.  I held on and finished in an unoffical time of 1:25:11. I lost the sub 1:25 in the last mile... I had nothing left.  I think I ran pretty even splits but some of the mile markers were off by a bit.  Ran with a guy carrying the US flag until ~4 mile, which was very inspirational. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Funny thing.  I was stuck at 1:28:03 in the HM for 3 years yet ran very good 10ks.  Now my 10k has slowed to ~39mins but I've knocked 3 minutes off my HM PR.  Hopefully, that'll translates a good marathon...</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Dan</strong> - nice going</p>
<p><strong>kfuller</strong> - enjoy your day of rest</p>
<p><strong>BBS</strong> - Rest up.   I was not ill prepared for the race just feeling for most of the week.  The antibiotics for the spider bite must have kicked in.</p>
<p><strong>4boysmom</strong> - although you are not checking in - best of luck with your ride</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Way to go, <strong>RA</strong>, incredible race... sub-20 for that last 5k there you are set up some marathon this fall.   Especially impressive given the weather wasn't perferct if it was like it was out here.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I started at 6:30am and ran 20.4 miles at 8:35 pace, it was low 60s at the start but up to 70 at the end and pretty humid.   I did a giant trail loop including some territory I had never done before including an utterly monotonous stretch on the Great Western Trail.    Legs were pretty tired and lagged a bit the second half but had a little left at the end.   I gotta find me one of those spiders.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nice runs/rest and take care all.</p>
