This morning I ran the Striders 10 mile classic. My goal was to run the race at a pace of 7 minute miles and finishing around 70 minutes. My watch said I ran in the course in 67:50 minutes. I am pretty happy with these results. Last year I ran the race in 73:20 minutes. The run is a mental challenge because the course is extremely hilly. I have this goal of reaching 10 miles in 1 hour set by a running legend…. but we shall see… I have quite a bit of work to do for this accomplishment to be reached. The course would have to be much flatter for me to run 6 minute miles.

For the record, it was 59 minutes.
Awesome job with the Striders today. It took me TWO HOURS to run 14 miles. Hardly a legend!

If only I had the dedication and discipline to run when I don’t feel like it like you and gbrand! Congrats and the 10 miler, and good luck in the Riverbank.
