10k Peachtreee Road Race

mid 42 min --  

I'm just out of shape - not much more to say about things.  I had a fun time at least.  Ran with JG from the board.  He ran with his boy, so that was a good time.  I need to get my kids to start doing this one with me.  It is a really big tradition in Atlanta.  60k people running and walking on the 4th.

5 around the neighborhood -- felt good most of the way -- 7:30 ave pace.. that pace is a little too hard at this point, but I'll keep at it.  Adding the bike every other day i think might help mentally and cardio-wise.

humid as crap out there -- but i had a decent run, i guess.  there are no real good runs anymore, but i need to keep pushing out of this 

my legs were dead after two days of long-ish rides (at least they were long for me)

really nice mid-day summer run going and then all of a sudden a giant insect lands on my upper lip and stings the **** out of me.  After a minute of swearing and hand flailing i decided to walk it home, but after the pain died down a bit I decided to get it over with and get home.  Turns out the pace home was the same as before I was attacked...

Lip looks like one of those ladys who had too much lip injections.  My son thought it was funny  :)
