US 5k

Today prior to my run as my wife was sleeping, I was able to watch the last day of the world champs. I held off on looking up the results in order to really enjoy the surprise of the events. Wow was I on my feet with the goose bumps on the last 200 of the mens 5k. Great stuff. Just wish Teg could have had another few meters. He could have had a bronze to go with Lagats gold.

Felt better today. I had 10 strides on the schedule so I did those and also carried a water bottle. It once again was a bit warm so I thought I could use the extra fluids. I did the strides at a moderately quick pace as my legs are still a bit "tight" from the workout Friday. Does that mean I am doing something? Hope to see results tuesday as it is really my first big workout with 3 x 2 miles with 3 min rest. I will have had three easy days leading up to it so I am hoping to be fresh and feeling to bust one. My focus now turns to city of lakes a week from today. I have a easier week at home and school starts so the stress level should be better for this week.
