No more loafing. Back to work today. Met my team at Tom Watson Park. Actually, I came 30 minutes early and ran 4 miles beforehand. Then I did the workout with the team. Coach told me to take it a little easy though as I am still recovering. 20 min warm up, stretching, strides. 10 minutes at 6:05 pace 2 min jog 4X2:30 with 90 sec jog between each (pace was 5:35, 5:40, 5:28, 5:30) 2 min jog 6XHill repeats. Odds were just 48 second push up the hill and jog back down, evens were 45 second push up the hill and steady push back down, so about 90 seconds. (pace was 5:36, 5:31, 5:40, 5:20, 5:38, 5:20) 2 min rest 5 minutes steady in 5:56 pace 20 minute cool down After the workout Coach reminded us that it was 9/11 and we all had a moment of silence. I was glad he did that because I hadn't thought about it yet today. I still remember where I was on 9/11 though and the thoughts that flowed into my mind as I heard the news. I am really grateful for our country and all those who work hard or even give their lives in our defense.
