Another record!

5.2 miles in 60 minutes, that's an 11:29 pace : eleven twenty-nine? what happened?
Simple - it's hot and it's early. We stopped to gather ourselves at the water stop, we walked out of them and detoured through the sprinkler. No problem. Today was our longest run to date, we went farther along the trail than we've been this year, my Nerd Watch and I tagged along toward the end of the pack, and did I mention it's 5:30 in the morning?

Tim Kelly complimented us on our cohesiveness today as we hit the waterstop. That's important, we're stronger together and you'll notice it's easier to run if you have someone to talk to, someone to focus on. Watching other runners gives you some good pointers on form, how to hold your elbows, or just be fashion conscious. What brand of shoes do people prefer? What kind of earbuds are people using?

I'll be in Missouri next week, enjoy the Notch Run and I'll see you on Cocktail Sunday!
