7-miler

Today's run was awesome. The Houston Striders KICKED MY BUTT! We ran a seven-miler from the Memorial Park fitness center to Uptown Park.
The other runners backed off their usual swiftness and challenged me to push myself for a faster pace. Matt, Steeve, and Barry did a great job talking to me, which took my mind off the uncomfortable pace. Truth be known, I think they were trying to speed me up.
My left leg was a little bothersome from mile 2 until the half way point. Nothing too serious, so I won't waste your valuable reading time complaining about it. After looking at the numbers, I see that tonight's pace was only 5 seconds off my 10K PR. I feel it in my legs, but this is a GOOD feeling! Special Thanks to Steeve, Matt, Barry, Cyndie, and David! Hopefully I didn't miss anyone's name from tonight's run.
