Crystal Blue Persuasion

This was a gorgeous morning, temp of 48 degrees, crisp and clear. The sunrise and morning sky was spectacular as we finished our little recovery run. I met Frank down at RunTex for the Tuesday 7 miler, and we had a pleasant little run around Town Lake. I felt great, and in general it was a fun time. Lots of conversation and people watching, and we even got to hang out with some of the Tuesday/Thursday Gazelles when they returned to RunTex from their mile repeat workout. We knocked out 5 x 100m striders once we finished our run, and I didn't even hate them this time.

Got a chance to talk with Pete and Alex as we stretched, which was a treat. I don't see Pete that often anymore since I've switched to M/W, so we always have lots to talk about when we do meet. Alex was cold, and cut his stretching short to get warmed up. It was pretty cool once you stopped running.

For the day, 7 miles, more or less, average pace right at 9:00/mile. Tomorrow, 15 x 400m repeats. Yee haw!
