Total Distance

22.00

17.1 mile big workout this morning with Logan at the DC. 4 mile warm up, 9 mile Tinman tempo (5:57 avg), 4.1 mile cool down. I was up at 3:30 a.m and running by 4 so we could get this one done. This extreme early morning stuff sucks but it feels soo good to be done with the workout and to not have to sit and worry about it all day.

No high lights this morning. It was very dark and hard to see the trail in most places. I stayed with Logan until just after mile 4 of the tempo and then he picked it up and I just stayed with the goal pace. The hamstrings were really tight coming into the workout but didn't really bother me during- I hope they will stay loose the rest of the day.

(Black Stratus- 47.1)

5 easy miles this afternoon out in the sun- sounds like fun!

(Blue Cumulus- 466.05)

Nice work, buddy. 3:30 am- hardcore. Amazing you can get moving so fast at 4 am.

Working harder so the talent will surface. I like that.

Clyde, I'm sure with all your extra efforts with the Young Men the last few weeks, you will be rewarded in some way. I totally understand how you feel, when working with the young men and trying to fit in your training, not too mention the other things in your life. I still admire guys like you, Dave, and Logan who are able to get in the amount of miles you do. I struggle trying to hit 60-70.
