week 9.
The temps dropped a little tonight due to some short rain storms. We arrived a little later than normal, and had eaten at 6, so, I was a little concerned about the recent meal and lack of time to stretch.
I got off to a good start and paced with Duane until about .75 miles, when I passed him. Mile 1 in 8:33 and feeling good. We were running into a slight headwind, but, I knew we would get the benefit of the tailwind on the way back. I made the turn and realized that Duane was still close. Not long after the turn, I saw Griffin. He was having a GREAT race! Mile 2 was slightly slower at 8:41. I posted a 8:39 mile 3 and kicked down the stretch. Total time: 26:50. A full minute faster than last week and my fastest time of the 2016 series.
As I headed back for Griffin, I didn't have to walk far, as he was just a few minutes behind me. He posted a 30:21. A new PR by more than a minute! He'll break the 30 minute mark this year.
Good week!
