Met Paul and Bill over at SCHS Track only to discover there was another soccer practice going on.  So, we ran on over to the Middle School and and ran on their paved  1/4 mile track.

1.5 Mile Warm-up.

1st mile - 6:00

2st mile - 6:00

3rd mile - 6:19 ( got pricker in shoes and had to stop and pull it out)

4th mile - 6:22

The workout wasn't extremely fast, however I wasn't sore this morning and wasn't fatigued after as well. We started off wanting to run 6's for the first three and 6:40 for the 4th.  I think I'm finally starting to get a sense of pace and being able to choose a pace and keep it there.

After the repeats we ran about 600M barefoot.

Got up a little earlier and ran my 11.5 desert reserve loop. Took it easy.  About 8 miles in I started feeling a little dehydrated and fatigued. I soon remembered I hadn't had any food or water since before our repeats last night - not too smart. However, when I got home I did put myself on the scale and I was down to 164 (a new low since 2001).

Easy 5 this morning out in the reserve. I'm really liking getting out early and running when the temp is perfect. Soleus was a little tight, but loosened up after a couple miles.

Looking forward to the club run tonight.

Ran with the guys out into the desert reserve. Pretty good run, took it easy.  Started feeling a little fatigued towards the end of the run.

Ran with the club out into the Reserve over by the Golf Course. Good run with some good climbing.  Extended the run with Luke over the T-bone trail and down the turkey rd to tabernacle and back to the store via the diagonal.

Ran the Run 4 Kids - Pretty happy with the results, mostly happy I'm not sore this morning. I'm not sure what my splits are because I haven't had a chance to take them off my Garmin.  They are pretty close to Dustin Ence's splits except for the last three mile.

I wanted to start the race off a little slower than I have the last couple races and control my pace a little.  I've been getting to the end and finding myself dead and not able to maintain a reasonable pace the last couple miles. I think the strategy payed off, however I think I had a little too much left at the end because I noticed I was sub 5 for the last portion of the race (down hill).

I'm glad we're running another 10k this coming weekend just to get used to racing again, and running at faster speeds.  I also think it will help with my overall strength as well. I would like to get back down to running 10K in the low 5min pace.

Ran with Dave and Bill, nice easy run - It was great hearing about Dave's race at Boston - I think everyone in the club is off to a great 07 running season.

Run this morning out in the desert reserve. Tried focusing on form and relaxing as much as possible. Came home and did some good stretching and this new hip exercise I found while reading Chi Running.

Decent Run for the day. Got in some good miles and some good miles at threshold pace. When I have more time I'll go in into more detail.

Ran with Clyde and Bill from the store over into Santa Clara.  Pretty good loop, nice head wind with a few rain sprinkles. The pace was 6:30 most of the run, slowed down a little on the hills and towards the end of the run.  Clyde helped push and keep us going at the end.

Great run!

Got to bed late last night so I didn't end up getting up early like I had hoped. Only had time to get in 3.5 over in the reserve.
