A nice 6 miler

Today was suppose to be any easy 6 mile run at marathon pace. Well for me MP = 11:17.

Brad and myself left out on a nice and cool morning and started running with another group. We were in the process of warming up and looked at each other and said "Are you ready?" Then for some strange reason we took off. I dont know what happened to us today. Today was suppose to be a nice day. I dont know if it was the cooler weather or if it was something else but we finished our run at a 10:04 overall average. BOOM!!!!

I did not see that coming today but I am very excited to see the progress. We are going out on Monday to run our local Labor Day road race and I would like to come in on the 10K in under 62 minutes. I have not done that kind of speed in a while. I have gotten hooked on just training for distance instead of speed.

I have not been posting reports in a while but things are going to change. I like to write about my running. Heck, maybe one day I might just try and write a book about it. Remember here, you read it first.

we have about 8 weeks of training left for our Savannah marathon with a time goal of under 5 hours. Then it will be training for the Goofy race in Jan 2012 in Disney. That will give me marathon numbers 18 and 19. I have been trying to think of where I would like number 20 to be at. I want it to be a special place for me.

I think I have decided to run Snickers in Albany Ga for number 20. This was the place where I got my taste for marathons. This is also the place where I hold my current PR of 4:51. Maybe I just might have enough in me to go for a new record.

Well, this is all of the new stuff that is going on right now. I dont want to bore yall with alot of the small stuff so for now I will sign off and say "Keep on keeping on".

Have a wonderful holiday weekend,
