| Ran on the Arkanas River with Ean. They really did a lot of work on the running trails there..I was really impressed. I did 6 strides after our 3 mile out and back.

Little Rock 1/2 Marathon (13.1 Miles) 01:14:03, Place overall: 5, Place in age division: 1 | Slow miles | Fast miles | Total Distance | 2.00 | 13.10 | 15.10 |
| Had a great trip to Little Rock...Although the weather wasn't perfect I somehow managed to sqeeze another PR out of this course... we were treated very well. Jake, Connor, Ian and myself all ran the 1/2 this year.
We came out of Juanita's and it started sprinkling and getting colder. I managed to get a few strides in and some stretches and we lined up to go. I took off at my normal bat out of hell pace and led for the first 1/2 mile or so. Jake pulled up next to me and snickered something like "typical" cause he knew i wasn't going to hold that pace.LOL I told him that I still had time to slow down for the first mile split (which i did) 5:17.
Jake took off with a group of about 6 runners moving at a much faster pace. 3 of them were 1/2 marathoners and the rest were running the full. 2 of the marathoners fell back a bit and i caught up with them at about mile 3 and ran through 11 miles with them. Both of them finished in the money at the 3rd and 4th place spots in the marathon. I ran solo from there. I hopped just in front of the Lead marathoners when the courses met back up and the 12-13 mile was bitterly cold with a stiff wind..
I wasn't watching my time too much but when i saw the 1:13:xx on the clock i knew i had a good shot of PRing. I really wanted under the 1:14 mark but was a few ticks shy. I was the 4th person to cross the line but found out later that they had a delayed start after the elite field and some dude out chipped me. Regardless i was pretty happy with a 5th place finish and winning out the master field with a PR..
We head out early,shower at the hotel and made a stop at Mike's Place in Conway AR for some lunch.(good stuff) Then had a very long trip back to the city in the freezing rain/ sleet/ snow / wind.

| was at the donut shop when i got a call from connor and decided to go run with him at hefner...we did a quick mile warm up and then set sail with the wind to our backs and hit the first 3 miles at a nice clip and i told Connor if he was wanting to pick it up to go ahead..i was not aiming to hit any records today..i finished my last mile up in about 5:42 slowest split... i averaged out the run at 5:32 pace. Connor looked strong and picked up the last mile with a 10- 15 sec gap on me.
we jogged down to the police station and he hit the port while i got a quick drink at the water faucet. then we looped back and did the keyhole to get in 10. It started sleeting and raining on the jog back it was pretty cold...
We stopped by starbucks for a cup of coffee and warmed up.

| Wanted to run a lot faster. didn't happen. guess the positive i can take from this race is its my 1st 8k victory. Had a long windy stretch that held me back from hitting my goal.

| Met Andrew, Blake and Connor at Louies for a midday Sunday run around Hefner. Started out being cool, and turned out to be nice running weather - the wind. Connor and I ended up running the last 5 faster.. we ran into a nice head wind the last 2.5 miles or so.

| wasn't really planning on racing but felt obligated to race seeing how i work with the kids that go to the school that the proceeds go to and my wife works there.. I took off and built a nice gap and just cruised on to the finish.. I knew with the wind and heat that i would not be anywhere close to a pr so i did what i had to and got the w.
Wind was 30-40 mph gust from the s and it was low 80's
