am--9 Hit the Barrel Roll and Sidewinder. Lots of bikers out. They're pretty good about sharing the trails except for the (take-themselves-too) serious(ly) db's that wouldn't yield to anyone, going up or down.

am--5.75 Early morning run into DD w/ a buddy. Not too cold this morning. 

pm--4.25 Fartlek on the tready. 1 min. @ 7:00 min. pace x 5 w/ 30 sec. rest. Then 2 minutes rest follwed by 1 min. @ 6:40 min. pace x 5 w/ 30 sec. rest.  I was testing out the leg speed and sustainability @ these paces. Neither felt grueling. That's good.

am--14 Twas a good time this morning. I warmed up from Hilton Dr. because the traffic was horrible. Today's race was my second race since STG 2009. I really wasn't sure what to expect. So I just went out and ran. 

The course seemed pretty honest, and I was able to hold my pace in the mid-7s. Judging by those who were in my general area, I dropped off slightly after mile 9. Nevertheless, this is a ~5 min. PR @ the distance. Too bad my time is in absentia on the Stride Racing site. At least, there is a fitness baseline to operate with going forward. Congratulations to all who ran.
