Saturday August 14 (and rest of the week)
« on: August 16, 2021, 05:04:33 PM »
I think I mentioned this last week but had planned to run a 3000 m at the regional masters USATF track champs on Saturday, but missed the entry deadline which was a week ahead and by mail only. Even though I called and tried to plead on Sunday they wouldn't take it. So I found a local 5K road race put on by a high school XC team as a fund raiser. Had a nice time at the event, placed 9th out 190 and ran 18:48 5K (86.7% age grade) and cracked their top 7.

The rest of the week did 61 miles, making four of the past five weeks with 60+. Next race up is a 10K in three weeks (Labor Day). Taking a rest day today (just tired) then going to have a couple solid weeks and a proper taper for that one. National 12K champs are also next month, but not sure if that's a go. NJ marathon just canceled, and like dominoes they might start tumbling down.
