January 3, 2010 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 50, kind of sunny!

Comments:
Pretty damn good long run. Slept in 'til 9, dicked around for a while, then finally got out for the run at 1130.

Tried to keep it really easy but it didn't work. Clocked a 6:30 in the 2nd mile, and my mid-late miles were in the :20s and teens. Really focused on effortless form. Seeing Will Leer on the other side of the Rexius loop helped: he's got really good hip flexion, even running easy -- typical of a fast miler. I need that!

Was pretty tired at the end, but the 6:12ish pace at the end likely was the cause of that.

Gonna REALLY focus on the long run in the next several weeks: the KEY to strength and fitness.

FYI: inked the contract for Eugene 2010 on 1/1. So it's go time!
