July 10: 13 miles from Bull City Running

Hey SMiG and Beasts,

Yeah. It's late in the week. But it's still early enough that I can remind you that we're meeting at Inside Out in Cary on Saturday at 6:30 for 14... maybe 15... maybe 20 miles of running. Here's a map. I'll tell you in advance: this can be a rough one. It's all on concrete sidewalk, out in the open. Wear sunscreen. Watch for traffic.

It was nothing short of a pleasure to run with Patrick and Gary on Saturday at Bull City. We kind of pushed the pace a bit. Whoops. If you found 8:05/mi a little fast, given the conditions, well, it's okay. We'll pull it back to 8:15. Better to train all day a little slower than to get wasted in the first half. Here are the stats:



Congratulations to Jeff, who did his first tri -- Triangle Triathlon -- at Harris Lake on Sunday. We'll send out our respective versions of what happened a little later. But here's a preview. Here are two pictures, toward the end of the race, taken less than thirty seconds apart. Jeff is the guy in the blue. He passed the other guy as well.



Have a great... couple days.
Dan
