Pacing for Nick...this was actually spread out over Saturday evening (starting at 7:20 at night) and continued into Sunday morning (finished at 6:20). Nick walked/jogged for most of the first 30 miles I did with him, so that was a fairly relaxed pace (I did subtract the time he spent at aid stations, because that did add up also), but he then sprinted for the last 7 miles. I am laughing that it was pretty darn close to having me sprint for those last 7 miles to keep up with his manic pace. I am a bit tight and sore after that effort, and am counting it as my Saturday and Sunday run...since I couldn't get in another effort after we finished (with driving home and all).

C • which race? I had some fri... 2

Easy run around a park in Syracuse. Don't know the distance, but I ran around the roads a bit, found a park, and ran around the park's perimeter trail which ducked into the woods a bit...it was nice!

Easy run w/ Stephanie around the bike path in Amherst and on some side trails. Felt a bit stiff from yesterday's track workout and/or hike.

Track workout w/ Kelsey at Eaglebrook School...we warmed up about 20 minutes (2 miles?) on the trails, then 5 x 1 mile repeats...I did 6:12, 6:12, 6:12, 6:20, 6:35. Recovery 400 meters (2 minutes?). Felt ok, just couldn't mentally switch into 'race mode' as opposed to 'tempo mode'...and clearly I was just tired and uninspired at the end since my pace backed off but I still felt mostly ok. Cooled down 15 minutes (1.5 miles?) on the trails.

Hiked around 7 Sisters a bit with Pete. Great day! :)

Easy run w/ Aaron around the Sugarloaf trails. Felt good, surprisingly.

Easy bike to work today...thanks to Brian for suggesting it and getting me out the door this morning, because it was great to ride in! :)

Biked back home.
