Sunday 10 Miler in Athens

I'm back on track for the regular Athens 10 miler now. Every Sunday at 5:45 AM at the Athens Rec. Center. You're welcome to join.

Today, it was Matt, Carl, and me. We've all lost some conditioning recently, so we agreed to go a little easier on this run. Also, I added lower body workouts to my weight routine this week. It was the first time I had lifted weights with my legs in several months. I didn't do much, just some leg presses, squats, and hamstring curls. Since it was the first time in months, my legs were SORE. Combine that with yesterday's races, and I didn't have much in the tank.

Anyway... We all agreed that sub 75 minutes was not something we should do today. It was a great run with great company and a strong finish. I look forward to this 10 miler every week. 1:20:10 total with splits below.
