Day 30

Today my friend Tony the scientist ran with me. Tony is a scientist and he has forgotten more about running and exercise physiology than I will ever know. Tony is also an excellent athlete. I ran hard to impress him.He maintained a comfortable conversation while I gasped for air. We ended up covering 5miles in 40:22- my personal record for 5 miles.

Running with Tony was amazing- he coached me through the run and set goals for splits and miles. We ran our 4th mile in 7:45 and our 5th in 7:10! Those are ridiculously fast times for me. It reminds me of the value of having someone to push me.

Jeff was also there this morning. Jeff ran strong and approached a PR of his own. Jeff is awesome.

I'm at 86.20 miles for 2013 so far.
