Great Day

I got out for a 4.5 mile run this morning. I was nearly to the end when I saw someone running up ahead. I couldn't tell which way they were running--they were that far away--but I decided to race them. When I got closer, I'd decide what the finish line was. The whole distance I ran after this person was a little bit over a half mile. They were moving away from me, and when I noticed that, I made the race to the major intersection at the end of my run. I fell just a little bit short--I was only about 50 feet behind this person when they finished at the last intersection. Not bad, considering that the other person had more than a quarter-mile head start on me.

I'm going to start speed work soon--I'll have to do the speed work on weekends, since no track will be available to me on weekdays.

Starting the new job in the morining. I'm going to get up at 5:00-5:30 to get a run in before work.
