It is raining like mid-February but at least it is warm. I just finished a 20 mile run in a PR of 2:47. This week I had one of my best track workouts with PRs at 1 mile (6:23); 2 mile (13:25) and 800 meters (2:54) and had a tempo day that was ok at best (shouldn't have had drinks with dinner the night before - bad planning).
Denise is currently out running her longest run ever - 16 miles - and it will be interesting how it goes with this nasty rain. She has been having a little bit of foot pain this week and it appears it is from a new pair of shoes. She wore her old shoes all day yesterday and was pain free this morning so I hope it goes well.
Last weekend I ran 18 and Denise ran 12. Today's run also marked a milestone as I went over 1,000 miles for the year with a total of 1002. Denise's run today will mark a milestone for her as well as she will go over 500 miles for the year!
The training for both of us is going very well and we couldn't be more please with the F.I.R.S.T. program. We did find out yesterday that both Paul Bate and Curt Frazier are not going to make the trip to DC after all. They were the ones that encouraged us to go so we are pleased for that but will miss them.
Finally, the boys started kindergarten this week and it was a milestone of a different variety. How did they ever get to be so grown up so quickly. Boy do we love them and who they are growing into. Have a great Labor Day weekend!
