15 miles in 6:49 pace

Serene, peaceful long run in the beautiful sunshine!!!  That East Boulder Creek path is packed with fast runners on Saturday morning.  I just happened to be running next to an elite guy for a few miles....arg...for the life of me I cant remember his name!  He trains with Boulder Express and has run 1:03 in the half.  We passed my RRB buddies, Cathy and Pete.  Then I saw Andrew Leatherby and Benita Willis, two international world class runners who train here; they charged past me as I was coming back on my out and back run.  Fun fun!  And now I'm excited to hear about Aaron's 50K in Fort Collins today.

Wow! Just a casual jog at 6:49 pace--you are amazing!

Did you throw a tempo in there or just keep most of your miles sub-7? Amazing!

What's up with all these elite runners in Colorado? Does everyone just gravitate to you?

[[wow]] on the pace! that is some great running amidst other great runners.

unidentified elite runner's blog post: "i just happened to be running next to nan kennard. she trains with boulder running republic and has run 2:35 in a hilly, windy marathon."

burt - yes.

April-Well it wasn't exactly "casual" but comfortably hard, thanks!

Mel-I considered throwing in a couple of tempo miles and I think I'll do that in the future but this time I was just clipping away trying to keep it somewhat quick.

Burt-More like I gravitated to Boulder to be with the elite runners.

Allie-Haha funny. No I don't think many people here know me unless they are RRBers. I met Benita Willis at a local 5K in July yet still when I pass her on the trails she looks at me strange every time as if she's thinking "Do I know her? Hmmm, maybe I left her in the dust in a race once. Yeah. That must be it."
