Notes

1st very bad race experience. Expected to finish under 19minutes. 5 sec. off pace for mile one. Really started to lose pace on mile 2 and 3. Had some kick at the finish but started too early and couldn't hold for final straight away. Basically legs just were not ready to cover distance @ 6:07 pace. Breathing got slower and slower, just had no strength. Probably should have seen results coming considering how inconsistant quantity and quality of summer workouts. Back to the drawing board. Recently picked up training book by Brad Hudson and will give his "adaptive" training a shot.

On a better note, Julia ran her 1st mile (fun run) in 10:48. Smiled the entire way.
