Went for a little jog before the race to loosen up.

1 - 6.09 Watched Dave pull away. Dustin was just ahead of me and I just wanted to stay within a reasonable distance of him.

2 - 6.09 I was wondering if I went out to quick at this point cause I was sucking air big time. Just trying not to fall too far behind.

3 - 6.13 Still battling the breathing. Passed Dustin right around here. I think he stopped to drink.

4 - 6.35 I can tell that Im slowing but cant get moving. Dustin passed me somewhere on this mile. The juice is really gone.

5 - 6.45 Just trying to stay as close to Dustin as possible but he starts to pull away.

6 - 6.21 Talked myself into picking it up. Once again sucking air through every opening i can find to get more.  

.39 2.33 Dave came back and tried to help me finish strong. It helped but I couldnt get much more out of the old body.

Over all I feel good about this race. Everyone was measuring it long ( I got 6.39) so the times where all off. Looks like I need to work on getting the lungs built up. My legs felt alright but I could not get enough air.

Nice run today.

Its a good workout, and it shows where your limit is. You have plenty of speed, just need more endurance at the 6 minute mile range.

Great job today!

Nice race this morning, you're really improving keep it up! Are you planning on doing the marathon again this fall?

really good job today James. Keep it up! You are doing really good. YOu should be very proud of yourself!

Great job today James - you are getting very consistently fast. In a few more weeks, we will work in a little more Tempo pacing in our runs that will help you maintain a higher pace longer w/o as many breathing struggles.
