5:00 am. Almost considered not running this morning, worked pretty late last night and knew I had to wake up early to take my co-worker to the airport, but my body woke up at 4:30 even though my mind didn't, I figure if my body is ready to go even if my mind isn't I should probably go. Didn't have time to do the Stanford loop twice so I just did it about 1 1/4 times for 5 mile and then 1 mile out and back from the hotel. My hamstrings where pretty tight this morning so I never really pushed it, but I did try to concentrate on a steady pace. 7 miles in about 50 minutes. 7:08 avg. Thursday is a day between conferences so I think I will try and get some speed work on the Stanford track Thursday morning. I've never ran on a real track before. I know pretty sad.
