"I've been following Eddy's improvement over the last two years on this site, and it's been pretty dang solid. Sure the weekly mileage has been up and down, but over the long haul he's getting out the door and has turned himself into quite a runner. He's only now just figuring out his potential. Consistency in running is measured in years, not weeks. And over the last couple of years, Eddy's made great strides" Jeff 14 Jan 2009

Thanks for all the replies, I think you are right. I shouldnt have gone that hard, but if I should just save it for races then, this could have been considered a race no?

I run with my brother in law who is about 50 pounds lighter than I am and can really move when he wants to but has a tendancy to burn himself out. It might sound a little simplistic but I always run behind him and try to keep up with him and he tries to slow down just enough that I keep up. We end up faster than I would normally go on my own and he is a little slower. I get speed and he gets distance.
