The goal was to go easy today after the race. I met up with a guy I run with sometimes, Ryan. After the first mile I told him that today was going to be a fast day since we started out the first mile at 7:06. We met up with my good friend Josue at the start of mile 2 and he definitely was up for the challenge. He told me had biked 40 miles earlier in the day but he took off and led the charge on miles 2, 3, 4. Ryan was right behind him and I brought up the rear. The running actually felt pretty good. Eventually Josue dropped off and Sean jumped in at mile 6. He was just warming up so we slowed the pace down a bit. He sort of chastised me a bit for running so fast, but hey...sometimes I just have to be a rebel.
