In a Rush!

So I'm in a conference this week. I need speed work! What do I do? I sacrifice some of the conference! It starts in 39 min. I still need a shower and food, but I got the work-out in!! Plus the conference is there all day! Man I was exhausted last night from all the speakers and visiting,etc!
5.85 miles/55:51/ 9:32's- 8x.25miles with a quarter mile rest in between. I averaged well below 10k pace on the splits over this rolling course with some splits at 5k,3k and one at mile pace. It was a hearty work-out! Well, off to conference-preparing to sit a lot! But it's worth it, these deals are very helpful when you are a leader. Truth is leadership is difficult, challenging, and lonely at times. Yet I am one of those folks that is a natural born leader. Although I try to deny it I can't! I love to lead! Hope you do to, we all are leaders aren't we? Down to 31 minutes! Yikes!
Peace!

Irresistable!

I could not resist the urge to run today! Even on the heels of my last two runs, 12 and 16 miles, I knew I should rest but I wanted to sweat! I did just a little run, enough to loosen the bones and break a sweat. I'm in a Leadership Conference the next two days up in Springfield Mo. It'll be interesting to see how I manage to get my speed work in....
I shot an 82 yesterday! It was good to get out on the Links but I was tired. Hope running is irresistable in you neck of the woods! Peace!
Totals-2.7 miles/ 35:37/ 13:12's- degree of difficulty-EASY! I walked for warm-up and cool down.
