JRP. 83 degrees. Felt pretty good today.

My splits are an indication of how easily I succumb to peer pressure.

1- 9.04  started with group of 4 co-workers.

2- 8.19 durring this mile I was pulled away by the fast guy.

3- 8.02 talking with the fast guy.

4- 8.07 still talking with the fast guy.

5- 7.53 (included stopping for a traffic light) still talking with the fast guy, who was having trouble running so slow, while I was having trouble forming complete sentences.  :)

6- 8.35 fast guy had to get back to work. so I was left running solo.

8.20 ave pace.  No HR monitor. 

4.5 weeks till St. George.  I hope you are all able to make the best of this weeks training.

The body found in the Jordan a few weeks ago was deemed an accidental death.
