Cloudy and cool. Ran on a rural 4 lane and these huge dump trucks kept coming by at 60 or 70 mph. The wind wake from those things is awesome, nearly came to a standstill when they blew by. Gotta figure out a way to retaliate. Ran 9.2 min miles. I don't have a 5K pace or a 10K pace, I just run. I do try a few intervals near the finish. Gonna watch football the rest of the day, after I cut grass and do whatever my spouse has lined up...hang tough, rest easy<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/16595491-112697429854869206?l=runtenn.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15908198953688895495noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16595491.post-1126900945308191462005-09-16T12:58:00.000-07:002005-09-16T13:02:25.313-07:00Well didn't get to run yesterday or today.
