Notes

This was the exact opposite of Monday. Slept from 830pm-630am, brought the kids to school and left from St Thomas. I felt great today and I didn't think about my knee until after the workout when I realized I had zero pain/stiffness. Out of the gate I felt great and looking down about .5 in to the run I was at an 8:33 pace which never happens on my 6am runs. At times, I really had to pull back to still hover around 8:15. After yesterday's slogfest this felt great and the antsy feeling was there today. Some local work travel tomorrow and Thursday, and then the track Friday.

12 days to go.

A little fast, but good. Have a great trip.

No practice today? A little rain never hurt anyone. Plus god is watching so they'll be fine.

Yeah maybe that's questionable, I dunno. I know you're giving me a hard time, but then I also know there's parents that'll be the other way. The chance of T-storms is what sealed it for me because then we'd really have some batshit crazy parents. Anyway, just go send Connor out in the rain for 15 minutes and call it good.

Those catholics are nuts (present company included). Connor's currently out for a tempo run, 2 up, 3 @ 9:15, 2 down. He wants to run with his buddy (Andrew A) on race day but he keeps talking about beating his time from last year. Those 2 things won't happen together. It will be interesting to see what Connor chooses. My guess: start with the friend, ditch him when he can't keep up during the race, and then the buddy will be pissed. It's a lock.
