Saturday, September 18, 2004
On this day:
Anastasia FL State Park XC 10k (8.5 Miles Total)
07:10 - 14 minute warmup, containing strides. Felt a few aches but they largely loosened off. Adidas Response [2 Miles].
07:30 -XC 10k, Nike Mayflys- time meaningless as it was an easy victory, despite the stewards enquiry. Jogged the first 2 miles to avoid heat stress, 1 minute winning margin! - 36:52 [???, 13:05, 6:00, 6:15, 5:57, 5:34 1.25 Miles].
08:10 - 10 minute cooldown with Dad, Adidas Response, no aches [1 Mile].
Boil popped, extremely septic and gross. Probably accounts for my tiredness of late, and I feel much better now.
Weeks Mileage : 60 Miles
