Week   50            *Mike & I started together. I faded at 3 miles. But Mike held
YTD   625             a 6:35 pace through the finish. But it wasn't ten miles.
An early morning car accident and police investigation closed our path over the Kutz Bridge (between Washington & Jefferson memorials), thus cutting the race distance by ??? Otherwise perfect race conditions!

S - 11ish mi w/ 9.55mi race in the Cherry Blossom "10" Mile Run. Watch said 6:34 pace, official stats say 6:35. Either way, much better than the 7min pace I'd hoped for.
