Was supposed to do a 45-min run. Ran my 5.75M route from the Y. It wound up being 5.73M today. 41:03 (6:59/M pace). Started at 7:39, then 7:19, then 7:11, then 7:05, then 6:55, then under...finished at 6:45 pace. Faster pace today: I love my new Garmin watch. For the past few weeks, I have been happy with the accurate, reliable, consistent measurements....

5K Masters Championships
Mon, 9/24/18-took day off. A bit tired from the drive to and from Buffalo.
Sun, 9/23/18-5K Masters Championships in Buffalo.
The race course was a double loop on a golf course. It turned out to be long at 3.21M. Several runners were talking about if, after looking at their watches following the race.
My thought was to try to run 3:40 per kilometer. I also thought I might run 6:00 at the mile and then increase my speed over miles 2 and 3. As it turns out, I hit mile 1 in 5:47, mile 2 in 6:01, and mile three in 6:11. I ran the final .21 in about 63 seconds. The 19:02 was disappointing, but it's something to work with. After all, it was 5:56 per mile over 3.21M.
Great time hanging out with my teammates. The drive up and back was made more bearable by Neill Clark, my co-pilot and roommate.

I felt pretty strong.
Sun, 9/16-
The workout was supposed to be 45 run/walk, so I ran some and walked some.
4.22M run at Duke Island Park in 32:08 (7:37/mile pace), followed by a 13 min walk.
Sat, 9/15-
20 x 1 minute on a shallow hill....
Made my way to Millstone, parked and jogged to Colonial Park for my warm up (1.47M in 11:45). The temp was in the mid-70s, with some humidity but not that much.
Starting at the portion of the sidewalk (that leads to the pavilion) closet to the park marker (near where the sidewalk intersects with the parking lot), I made my way up the stretch of glass to the tree line. My 60-sec runs ranged between .30km (300m) and .30km (315m). or about .19M, respectively. Per the instructions, I walked back down to the origin, for a generous rest of 3 minutes, 30 seconds.
This felt good. I felt pretty strong.
