Tune-Up Run. Planned to do this later in the morning, but looks like more rain on the way and woke up with a lot of energy...so out the door. Twenty minutes of jogging at 7:45ish pace. Two extended striders, one up the small incline in front of the house, the other down it. Turnover on #1 sub 5:30 and did not feel near that fast. Second one right at 5:00.

Curious to see what happens tomorrow. Never raced the distance, so get a freebie PR (will be 5th different distance PR since 51st birthday). Anxious to race again on current fitness (coming off back-to-back sub-18:30 5Ks; only second time ever and those were nearly two years ago). Simple run. Staggered start will put a bunch of slower tri-boys and tri-girls on the course to chase after. Get to Houck Stadium, surge until hitting the point of no return red-line, park just under it, relaxed push up second Independence Street hill, then bring it home.
