What an excellent last run before Philly Jon. You are going to have a really race there - particularly if the weather is cooperative. You seem to be peaking at just the right time. Nice accomplishment on becoming official with the BRC as well.

good Fallish 3 mile run 3.22 mi 00:25 07:46 pace
Cloudy, cool, breezy, and the smell of falling leaves - today was the most fallish run that I've had this year. Just a nice and easy 3 mile run around today to keep the legs loose before tomorrow's... read more

great 40 min tempo 5.47 mi 00:44 08:05 pace

good 6x800m repeats 5.3 mi 00:39 07:26 pace
A little warmer than I expected it this morning, but nothing that I'm not used to thanks to the hot summer we've had. Ran fairly consistent splits with the fastest being my last repeat at 2:53 and ... read more

Sharp speed work Jon ... fall is truly around the corner and after what you have been training in you will really be comfortable - and probably even faster!

You did this well on this course in that traffic and in this weather Jon ... you are going to bust a fine one in Philly in a couple of weeks. Good run & great confidence booster. You and Alicia have a good weekend.

Jon, you are my hero. I wish I could run as fast as you, if only to just be done with my runs sooner than it actually takes me!

Ugh 70 degree dewpoints! I feel your pain. More power for actually doing the tempo workouts (as I hated them so I just stopped doing them!). Sounds like Philly will be fantastic!

Not sure how I managed to miss so many of your workouts Jon but in doing so I missed five workouts including a terrific speed session and a very good tempo run. Nice wrap up to this 34 mile week with a strong long run at a sub 8:00 pace. Hope the flip flop in your work schedule goes smoothly.

This is amazing Jon! I just ran my first 12 and it almost broke me. I was in a lot of pain, to the point of almost throwing in the towel. Thus, I am beyond impressed at this amazing pace! You are really incredible!

good Easy 4 3.77 mi 00:32 08:27 pace
Stiff and a little sore from yesterday's tempo, so I decided to do some trail running since it helps me slow my pace down and the ground is soft. Not much to report other than that.
