Notes
Started the run today with Dan and we were further back in the pack so had to pass a lot of runners. Once we got around, Phil comes up behind me on the right. I stay behind him and Tony since I know if I speed up, he will too. At the mulch pile, I decide to go around the opposite direction so I can set my own pace. Tony made it around just before I did and the rest were behind me. I'm not sure what got into me today, but I just kept pushing the pace. I heard someone behind me several times. Before a mile to the end Matt Dreier catches up to me and somehow I get sucked into running with him until the end. I almost couldn't talk by the time I stopped. I ran the last 0.25 mi with Dan to round off to 8 miles. I think I will rest tomorrow so maybe I can be ready for the 5K on Sat.
