Ran 2 easy miles this morning at our last basketball practice for the season. Plan on getting in a few more miles this afternoon, probably during my planning period, or after driver's education tonight. Decided to do a few more miles tonight on the treadmill. The Duke vs. North Carolina game was on, so that made running on the treadmill more bearable. I did the following workout, not too hard but still felt good. Started the treadmill at a 2% grade then did a mile warm-up at 8:34, the did 4x800 each 800 being at 6:00 pace (that's the top speed on my treadmill) between the 800's I did an 800 recovery at 8:34 pace. Tomorrow is my final basketball game to coach. Hope to run a few miles in the morning, should have more time on Friday, then the race on Saturday. I'm excited to see where I'm at compared to last year at the Dam to Dam. Last year I ran 33:06 and took 4th. I think I can run faster this year, but I also think the competition will be a lot better this year, just having the regular guys from the club there will make things more competitive.
