YHC showed up 5 minutes before launch to an empty parking lot. Well, surely SOMEONE else will show up…. Nope. I guess Joaquin’s scare tactics are working considering the governor declared a state of emergency and the entire Highlands pax stayed in their sandbagged fartsacks. Well…the morning was actually fantastic. Cool temp, a nice breeze, and no rain. YHC was proud to keep the Highland Speed Eternal Flame a burnin.
The Thang:
- Good tempo run. 5 mi @ 7:05 pace.
The Naked Moleskin:
- Not a lot of conversation going on today. Just a lot of cardiovascular stress.
Sorry, I scobeesacked (when you team’s kicker misses 2 field goals in the fourth quarter to cause overtime with opposing team’s kicker making a 53 yarder look easy and ends the game after midnight). Plus, no way I’m keeping up with a 7:05 pace.
Nice Nanny. I guess that’s why it’s called speed. Wish I posted to get pulled along at that pace (or, who knows, I could’ve likely dragged you down to a slower pace).
I literally ALMOST posted to Speed this morning. Haven’t been there in months…many months. But when I looked at the sign-up list last night and saw no Q, and then when I looked at the past couple weeks of backblasts and saw none posted for Speed, I thought perhaps Speed was no more. 7:05 pace for 5 miles? Speed is certainly alive and well. Still, this backblast convinced me that, this week at least, I made the wise choice. Nice run Nanny.
