How did you know I needed that?? I ran my longest distance ever, 9.6 miles, yesterday. I was planning on 5 miles today, but I'm hurting too much! Sore everywhere plus headache. So thanks for the encouragement!

No problem at all! Congrats on your 9.6 mile run, that's impressive! BTW, how's your son doing?
Thanks! DS had his first outdoor track meet yesterday. He's been training hard and was looking forward to it, but he was a little disappointed. I guess it's relative! His 1600 time was 4:46.5 (his mile PR from a couple of months ago is 4:43) and his 3200 time was 10:30. What really bugged him was that another sophomore on his team, who's been slacking off, ran the 1600 in 4:29! In the 1600, DS started out really fast on purpose (4:30 pace), so he just has to keep working on knowing how hard to push.
