1400 hrs. Red Bud Classic. Cold (45 degrees Fahrenheit, 7 degrees Celsius) with a strong wind out of the South. Layered up with shorts, long-sleeves, and a light-weight running jacket. Hit the trail with McKinnis leading the way and setting the pace; Al Pacino sat this one out, as his training wasn't where he wanted it to be. Solid work from beginning to end. The cool weather made for absolutely perfect running conditions. Completed the 6.21 miles in 58:30 for a 9:25 min/mile pace, which was a bit faster than my usual pace. Felt depleted afterwards; sore for a couple of days. Mahalo.

0600 hrs. Dawn Patrol. Campus Loop. Inaugurated the month of April with a 5k maintenance run through familiar environs. Warm, humid, and windy. Shorts and long-sleeves. Completed the 3.19 miles in 32:25 for a 10:09 min/mile pace. Bowel Related Issues (BRIs) made this run a potential disaster. Solid boundaries preclude this author from saying anything more. Finished March with 40 miles on 10 runs. Mahalo.
