I planned to run a few miles today, but I got in a wreck when somebody ran a red light and nailed me. Car is totaled. I feel extremely lucky and grateful that nobody was injured. Besides my loyal steed. It is no more.

AM - 4 easy in the rain. Gotta love the rain.

PM - 10 miles, again in the rain. Seriously, I love running in the rain. As long as the nipples don't chafe. There's nothing good about that.

5 x 1600m at Cornwall park w/ 2:30 rests. I didn't feel fantastic today, which surprised me. Bill thinks it's from the 10k Saturday, but I'm not sure. It just kinda felt like I was going through the motions. But that's okay, it's just all part of the grind. Had to duck into the woods for pit stops between #s 4 and 5, maybe that had something to do with it.

4:58, 4:56, 4:50, 4:48, 4:48 (avg 4:52)

8 mile tempo run at a soccer complex of Northwest. It took a couple of miles to warm into this one, but I went from 5:38 and 5:35 and worked my way down to a 5:14 final mile for 43:53 overall. The last 6 miles felt awesome - I feel like I can run 5:30 pace forever.
