Happy Father's Day to you all. Mine passed in September after a battle with Alzheimer's plus just wearing out.

Not sure what the family has planned but as long as I have my little girl and wife around, I am a happy father.

Same story this week, all treadmill. Today will change and there will be some track time. Day 170 of this streak.

Looking forward to racing Saturday, 1 mile on the track.

Have a great week!

Looks like soccer has become my favorite sport (until big boy football in the Fall). The emotion & yes theatrics, make for an entertaining 90 mins. Ole ole ole

Ran a flat 10k this week vs the ball buster Mtn one a couple weeks ago. Actually felt good the whole way.

Tues - 2x 1:00 grass, 1 mile, 800, 2 mile on pavement @ 10k pace

Sat - 10k .... 33:37 (2nd)

Cheers and health

TY

Well done 10k Tony.

Thx KP .... & no pain today!! A bonus.

nice 10k tony, faster than my pr from Central Park.

It is hot and steamy down here in Florida.

79 miles for the week.

M 4xstadium steps, 12x300 (100j)-53-55. averaged about a second better than last week and not nearly as sore afterward.

Th calf got sore from bouncing in the pool with my toddler, so I could do only a mile of tempo on the treadmill.

Sa 11@6:23/M with first 9 around 6:15 pace and four or five around 6 flat. This was tough with the weather hitting 90.

We joined the Y this week and so I got some swimming and weights and even an erg in for the first time in years.

Played a little too hard on my days off to really race well yesterday as I decided to do some mt. climbing thursday and friday. Bad idea for racing Saturday, but I learned how sore you can get for having fun in the mountains. The PTF Masters Mile was a little deluted this year, but that being the case, I had nothing in the tank, so just went until i couldn't. Fellow Washingtonian master Sam Alexander(41) thought he was around 4:22 shape, so I told him I had just run 4:32 in San Diego and if the pace wasn't to his liking, he'd have to probably solo that. There were three 30 year olds in the race, and one took us out fairly brisk at 65 for lap one, but he got tripped up, and dropped out at 600. Sam took the lead and we hit 880 in 2:11, and even though he simply maintained, my legs started to burn, and I couldn't respond. I just ran relaxed and hit lap three in 3:20, and he was at 3:18. I didn't get any better, and simply just coasted in once the the other two 38 year old guys went by, and then not wanting to dig even more, let my brother go by as well. Just didn't have it and didn't seem to want it that badly either. It happens. It was fun for 880. Then not fun. I knew it wasn't going to be my day though, so I wasn't too upset. I just like other activities enough that they sometimes get in the way of running, but that isn't a bad thing. Aside from all of that, the week was just easy running and one workout, as I had planned to run fast, but didn't forsee a climbing excursion so close to race day. I'll adjust my racing accordingly so I'm not sapped for big races. Going on vacation for three weeks now, so I figure there will be very little running, and then it's just like college and high school...base training for the Fall XC season.

Have fun out there in the summer months everyone.
