I can only handle pushing my kids in the stroller for about 6-7 miles. That's about all they can handle too. I did 6.25 miles on the parkway then came home and did 3 more long miles on the treadmill. AP 8:40

I decide earlier in the week to run this 5K, just to see how I would do. My goal was to break 20 minutes, which I'm happy about. It was a cold morning. I got a 2 mile warm up in with Kathryn, then went to the start. There's not much to report about this race, it was a flat course and I got beat by a 13 year old girl. She was pretty impressive. She was ahead of me at the start then I was going to pass her at about 1 mile and she took off, I couldn't catch her after that. I thought she was a tough runner. I'm not ashamed to lose to her :). I'm happy with the pace I ran. I ended up with 3.2 on my watch at the finish, so did my friend Kathryn. Splits were: 6:04, 6:11, 6:11 last .2 1:19. AP 6:09 I was finishing in 6:02 pace. It's hard to sprint nowadays. My "sprinting" isn't much faster then my 400m repeats pace. I'm turning 30 tomorrow, I wonder if that has something to do with it.
