I met Tee super early for a track workout. Trying to move fast before 6:00 am is tough. We warmed up three miles. My workout was 5x 1000 at 3:30 with 400 recovery. Tee wanted six, so I paced her on her last one. I ran 3:30, 3:28, 3:27: 3:29 (got a little too comfortable on this one) 3:22, and 3:33 with Tee. 1.5 mile cooldown.

Either my legs are freshening up, or I run faster later in the morning. Probably both. 6.3 later morning miles. 6:51 average. I'm bored with tapering.

Lagoon, hamburgers for dinner, and a major bout of insomnia did not make for the best race ever. But, that's ok. I signed up for this race to run it as a good pre-marathon work out. It served it's purpose. It was a fairly tough course with long gradual uphills. 5:42, 6:00, 5:53, and I don't know what the last little bit was.

Warmed up 4.5 miles. Cooled down back on the course to find my son, who ran 24:58. It was his first time breaking 25. 1.5 mile cooldown.
