Fourteen mile progression run that went about as well as it could have.  Dropped from 8:45 to 8:15 pace in first 4-mile section, then down to MP (7:55) for next 4, then down to 7:30 over next three, and finished up 7:28, 7:22, 7:16 for an overall average of 8 flat.  The marathon pace miles actually felt really comfortable, even though it was heat index 84 degrees - something which pleases me greatly just 2 weeks out from my race.

Easy six in the neighborhood at sub-70 degrees!  Heat index still over 80, but its a start to Fall weather maybe.

Rolling nine on neighborhood roads this morning at overall average 7:56 - all miles under 8 flat except one killer uphill mile (#7 @ 8:08).  Mostly had to hold back to keep pace at 7:50-7:55 - good run.

Easy couple and moderate couple running around the UNF golf course and trails before Travis' meet in Jacksonville this morning.  

Trav did ok for his first college race.  It was a low key 5K with only 4 complete teams and several unattached - total of 44 runners.  Coach could only run ten guys in uniform and Trav was one of the 5 that ran unattached.  He finished 11th overall and 9th on the squad in 16:27.  He was 5th freshman of 8 on the squad - not a bad start considering he really didnt put in the work he should have this summer.  Onward and upward.
