In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner. I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled. The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon. 6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

Ran from home over to Wilson Morgan. Met up with Jon and ran a new 5K course I put together over there. It was so hot. At 1/4 mile in, it downpoured. By 3/4 miles, it stopped and was a sauna for the rest of the run. Pushed it pretty hard - 6:24,6:55,6:57 miles. The course is a keeper - now we need a race to use it. Ran home as a cool down.

Ran over to pt. mallard and did the summer fun runs. Felt good. 1 mile was going well but got a phone call at 0.7 miles. I ran behind Matthew Dunn in the 3 mile and came in 2nd at 18:45. He was definitely holding back. In the two mile, I chatted with Wayne for the 1st quarter mile and let Larry Dickerson get about 50 yards. I picked it up and tried to catch him. It took awhile but I caught him eventually. 13:30

These fun runs are great. Now they are my speed work of choice. I'll go into withdrawl after July.

First time racing on the UAH course used by the Twilight and Turkey Trot. Also, first road race over in huntsville since the Marathon (Dec-09)

Course is rolling with the biggest incline coming at ~2.75 miles. Ran with Dink through the turnaround until he pulled away. I caught Greg Reynolds on the final climb and got within sight of Marty. Felt pretty good. happy with my time and effort.

Did a cool down around campus afterwards.
