AM: 10 miles on the Tigard HS loop. Easy.
Cumulus (355)
PM: 6 miles in Pendleton. I ran from the hotel to the college only to find out they didn't have a track. Next I ran to the HS and jumped on their track for a couple miles and then back to the hotel. It's so much hotter here compared to Portland.
Boston (424)
About a week ago I signed up to run the 5000m at the Portland Track Festival this weekend. In years past they've had two heats with the elites (low 13's to mid 14's) on Friday night and then the rest on Saturday night. Today they released the heat list and with only 19 people signed up for the 5K, there is only 1 heat.
That sucks. A lot. I have no problem finishing with one of the worst times. In fact I was planning on it. I'd love to hit somewhere around 15:30 but that's still a full 2+ minutes behind the lead pack of runners. I'm guessing I'll get lapped just after the 2 mile mark. Yuck. Anyway, out of the 19 runners, I have the 3rd slowest time. Hopefully the 2 behind me still show up. :)
