My HR was very steady today did not change much at all
the whole run it was between 148 and 152. That's a good sign
especially since I only drank 30 oz. on this run. Plus with
the race yesterday I figured it would be all over.
60 Miles on the week.

According to my GPS it was only 6 miles. But the course
has lots of tree cover along the way and might have lost
some signal at times.
As far as the race it went well. The first 2 miles was very
hard you run up quite a bit especially the first 3/4 mile.
I was in the lead almost from the start. I ran side by side
with a younger runner for the first 3 miles then he dropped
of the pace. I was able to keep going strong and finished
in first place. This was my first time of actually being the
overall winner. I even got my first trophy! I know it was not
the best competition but a win is a win.

This turned out to be a interesting run. I ran 3 1/2 miles with
the GBRC and we turned around to head back after getting a drink
of water. I started to pull away from the group and decided I
would push the pace a little and meet up with them at the Y at
the 7 mile mark. I would then get a drink and head back out for
3 more for a total of 10. Well I made a wrong turn some where and
was of course I figured no big deal I will go ahead and do my 3
extra now. I kept running and did not see any familiar landmarks
so I stopped at a gas station got a drink of water and asked for
directions of course they didn't now where the Y was. Finally they
said go down that way and make a turn at Mason. So I went out and
started running again but when I got down to Mason I realized I was
way of course now. I was running in the wrong direction so I had to
go back and finally found Webster St and then I new my way back so
I ended up with 14 miles. It's all good though I made it back in
one piece.

I used to figure this loop at 4.9 miles but my new Garmin
shows it at 4.76 miles. The wood are so thick in there that
it might not pick up the signal at all times so it could be
4.9 but I will figure it at 4.75 from now on. Happy to run both
loops at a very consistent pace. I was only 10 seconds slower on
second loop.

I'm sure it was high though. I felt winded right from
the start. The first 2 miles was into the wind.

Another tough treadmill run! I worked hard on this one physically
and mentally. This was the most time I have spent on a treadmill
ever. HR was okay today but a few times I had to slow the speed
down to keep HR in check. Next Saturday I will not do a treadmill
run so I can do the Bellin 10K run. This is good though I still
need to do some speed work.

Wow this was a HARD run tonight! Running at a incline
is much harder than what I'm used to running at just 1%
incline. I lowered the speed .5 mph after each mile and HR
still kept climbing. I will run on a flat trail tomorrow that
will feel good. Saturday I am going to run 9 miles on the mill
at incline. I don't necessarily like doing these treadmill
workouts but it's the best way to stimulate what it will be
like on race day running 13.32 miles straight up a mountain.
At least on the mill I have lots of oxygen.

Had a blast though. It's fun running in the rain.
At first it's not fun but after a while you are so
wet it doesn't matter anymore and you just enjoy the
feeling of rain hitting you in the face. First time running
this trail in over 6 months. I plan on running it at least
once a week leading up to the Marathon in August.
