Comments 4 mile warm-up including strides before the start. This was NJ championships with some good prize money. All the local clubs in NJ and philadelphia showed up making for an extremely fast field. I decided just to find a comfortable group to latch on to, given my difficult week of all-nighters and work in the studio with little rest. Hit the mile in 5 flat, not feeling particularly good at all, some stomach issues and stride felt forced. Slowed down on mile 2 in 5:16, 250m uphill leading to 2 mile mark. Wind was brutal from 1.5-2.5. at this point I caught 3 guys falling off of the lead pack and decided to at least race the last mile despite my dying motivation with 2nd 5:16 mile. the finish was nice long straight away about 9 00m out. I saw the line and tried to roll in, moving a little too early passing 3 out of 4 guys, closing my last mile in 5:06. Happy to be under 16 despite not feeling well at all. recovered in minutes and ran 6+ miles cool down on the neighboring trails. Fitness feels good, time to get some speed.

Comments Tired from being on my feet for 15 hours straight yesterday. Heavy legs at the beginning but started to feel okay around mile 6.5. With 2 miles to go I threw in 4 x 200 strides around 30-32 secs each with 200 recovery to try and find some spring in my legs.

Comments Treadmill run. Its a sad day when the monotony of treadmill running is superior to the painful illusion of an inescapable headwind on Kelly drive. Nice and relaxed, worked from 7:30 down to 6:40 with good form.
