AM   Set out this morning to do 6 x 600 x 200, well lets put it this way-- the body was not having any part of the speed work.  Ended up doing 4 x 600 and went into a MP for the next 7 miles and felt better with that then the speed work.  Just one of those days!  This was a TM run and man it was hot in the gym this morning as it was very windy outside and my good friend Jeff had the same idea also, (to windy)

AM   I had a great run this morning with the group and my wife, was not expecting to go the added 1.80 miles but it was ok.  Set out at 5 am this morning and ran 7.00 miles this morning before meeting up with the group. Ran SRL loop and back to the start point as Curt and Andrea had to leave and Jeff, Lynette, McKay and I made another loop of SRL and I cut off at the Pancheri bridge and headed back to the Greenbelt to finish up my run and meet up with my wife on the Greenbelt and ended running with her for 3 loops around the belt to make 21.80 miles. 

I had a ton of fun this morning with all my good friends and my wife and some great conversation - thanks honey and Jeff ,Lynette, Curt, McKay for the run.
