Oh yeah!!!!

Good and bad today. Well not really bad. I feel great! I just finished my first 10k in a while. Not a great finish and I had problems. And yes, this is the time to work out problems.

Well, for me it was:
a. (1) mile race.
b. a (1) mile jog and stretch when all of my muscles tightened like a vise.
c. a (1) mile kind of loosining up run.
d. a (5k) sloppy finish on some really messed up legs.


mile 1: 7:46
mile 2: 9:51
mile 3: 8:15
mile 4: 7:23
mile 5: 7:40
mile 6: 7:43
finish: 50:15 = 8:06 min/mile with a 7:35 per mile 2nd half.

Yep, I gots lots to work on. I think I can solve the cramping. I can solve the speed. I only ran (4) times this week for a total of 28 miles.

This is the first time I was able to drive this area of the city. The race was real near Audobon Park. I live here and I still cannot fathom the extent of devistation that the hurricane has left here. My eyes open every time I go to a different part of the city. It's bad over here.

The attendance for the race was much lower than the previous 2 races. I hope that this was just unusual. I will count the attendance and repost, so we can look at trends.

School - yep got to go study. I will finish Thursday ar Friday. Yes - I will start to live again.
