AM   10.25 miles on a cool but amazing morning for a run, I had alot of fun on this run this morning as i ran two loops of the Greenbelt and Freeman Park.  1 mile w/u - 6.75 miles at low Z2 - 1.50 miles at goal MP - 1 mile c/d.

I was coming out of Freeman Park on the second loop and saw four guys running 1/3 of a mile ahead of me and knowing they were in the late 20's early 30's it gave me some fun to try and catch them. So I went into goal MP and passed the just as we got to John's Hole Bridge. I know they didn't like seeing the OLD GUY passing them, they didn't even say hi back to me  (yes Jeff rude runners HaHa) Well I maybe didn't have to do that but it was fun.

The niice thing about it was that the HR only went to the mid Z2 and I felt great.   Just finished up my run and my wife Mauri was just getting there for her run.

I LOVE RUNNING!!!!!!! 

PM   Greenbelt run 5 easy miles at Z1   Hot this afternoon!

If you get passed, you don't have a right to be cocky, at least they should have acknowledged you. 2 groups of rude runners in IF in less than a week...what is this world coming to?!?!

I'm going to say they are just in absolute shock at how fast the two of you are. Maybe you guys are going past so fast they don't have time to think up anything intelligent to say. Like.....good morning or hello!
