We were able to get the band back together for our trail run today. Rich and Joe were back from Jemez and Fred joined us for a portion of the run today. It was good to run with everybody again. My plan was for a slow and steady 80 minutes today. We ran down Simmons to the guard shack and then headed towards Rockledge until we hit about 40 minutes for the turnaround. I like that end of the trail. I did a pretty good job of staying at a very comfortable pace. It was hard to not push the pace. At the very end, Rich wanted to go hard for about a half mile or so. We sprinted for about 4 minutes. I figured that would be ok. We had some breakfast at Rich's house and jumped in the pool. The water is still kind of cool but it felt good after a warm run. I'm pretty sure I am going to get a pretty tough week from Jeff this week and a taper the next week before the Pflugerville sprint. I'm looking forward to the race. I will have my new wheels. I'm about 4 weeks out from Ironman Buffalo Springs. It is coming pretty fast but I have been so busy there hasn't been a lot of time to worry about it. That's probably a good thing.
