AM-slept in and it felt great!

PM-decided to go run w/ the famous club guys on the mayors loop!  Let me tell you they don't mess around!  These guys are the real deal when it comes to road racing.  we started out at 7:10 and they were chattin' and goofin'.  2nd mile moved up to 6:40, 3rd 6:32.  They were still acting like it was warm-up time and I am on the red line.  This is where I started to realize I am not in this league!  I drop back to 6:42 for the 4th and they were long gone.  I backed off to 7:10 and then ran a cool down to bridgestone and back. 

I am not too proud, so I am still going to run with them until they flat out tell me that I am embarrassing them by running with them!  I can only get faster by doing it.  I did learn one thing though.  No sense of doing speed work the day before if I get my speed work in thursday.

Hey, it is awesome that you came out. Keep coming. You're right, there is NO OTHER SPEED WORK like TEMPO PACING - right now it will be the thing that gets you your PR (with consistent training of course).

I'll have to come to the club run next time to give you some company. You can always count on me and Bill to bring up the rear.

Hey, I just sent you some track ?'s/stuff to your yahoo account. I don't know if you check it or have a school one you use or whatever.

Dustin I need you to come. It is not that I can stay with you but I may be able to keep you within sight. Those guys are just gazelles!
