The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

1. Is it unreasonable to think I can do a 10 K by July 6th? I am not willing to let the century ride goal go. I will finish the ride June 7th and then my time will be freed greatly. 2. If it isn't unreasonable, what is the best training plan to use? 3. Should I focus on treadmill runs or outdoor runs? Treadmill running seems like cheating - the asphalt doesn't move under my feet when I run outside!

I think you'll be fine finishing (rather than racing) a 10K, but otherwise concentrate on being slow and consistent.

Flybye - nice to see another cyclist on here. In fact, I'm thinking we will have to watch our mileage, because it would be fun to be able to say we did 6 consecutive days of metric centuries. Most important: what kind of bike do you have?
