did a solo 3x3 mile repeat out at draper wind was pretty bad. did the set into the wind by effort and didn't hit the sets at pace with wind to my back...was alright with it and kept it just under marathon pace. 

I am finding it hard to motivate myself to get out and run. Think its the winter blues..

Nate came over to the house and rode up to Piedmont where we met up with J-hat for a nice hilly dirt road run... my game plan was to run 1 mile somewhere around marathon pace and recover at about a min off marathon pace.. with the hills thrown in I think this could possibly be one of the hardest workouts i have tried.

Great run with some great running buds.

One for the memory bank for sure!!

6 out and back for some a.m. miles at work

 

met up with nate and jazz at ewp and did a 6x1 mile workout with 1/2 mile recovery..easy miles on the ends 

Hit all my miles at 5:13 or better and felt good and comfortable.  I wanted to hit them all at 5:20 or better.  I ran out the first mile a lot quicker than I wanted and slowed down the pace so i could finish the workout....Nate and Jazz were about 5-15 sec ahead of me on the rest of them.

Had a big ol crew meet up at Louie's and my plan was to do the loop'n lakes 26.2 mile run... I was pretty sure I was going the whole distance solo till I saw Nate...I was glad he showed up.. we took the crew of 9 out to 8 miles and Nate and I were the only 2 to go the whole distance. We picked it up kept a pretty good clip around mid to low 6 min pace the rest of the run..It was a PR for Nate and his first sub 3.. Ready to watch some marathon trials now.

Got out to Lake Hefner bright and early to pick up my packet..met Danny at the pick up and we did a warm-up..

We got back and lined up and started on time. My plan was to try and go out a bit harder with the wind to my back and try and make up for the time I would loose going into the wind. Aaron and some younger kid went with me till mile #2 and I had it down around 5:30's with a nice tail wind. I kept it there till we got over on the other side of the lake and slowed a bit I had about a 30sec lead at the turn aroun. I was wanting to try and hit 1/2 way at around 43-44 min. and I was real close to being where I wanted...I took 2 waters after the 1/2 and was nursing a gu. I got up on the dam and planned on hitting the water stop there but a crowd of runners doing the 15k made that impossible. Just after that I turned the dreaded corner on the dam and went right into about a 16-18 mph wind and was dodging runners. With a little more than 3miles to go Aaron had reeled me in and blew by me at a nice pace. I did about as much as I could do to catch him but he was a lot fresher than I was.

I was going for the all time master record in OK which is currently 1:28:38 and fell a bit short of it. I did however pick up the single age record by a couple of seconds and hit about a 4 min PR for the distance. 

Had a great time hanging out and chatting with a bunch of folks.
