I ran this one with Kenyan Way. We were supposed to negative split the run but I think we took it to the extreme. Towards the end Sam, Geoff, and I were really moving. Our route ended at Mile 14 but I decided to tack on a 1.11 mile cool down at miles 15 and 16. I told Sean about our run and the speed we were running at the end and his first words were “Why?". To be honest with you I don’t really have a good explanation. I just did a workout yesterday and so this probably wasn’t the best thing to do, but it happened. I have a light day tomorrow, 6 miles easy, and I definitely will run it SLOWWW.

Sean and Luis are going to San Antonio to compete in tomorrow’s Rock ‘n Roll half. Good luck to them and all the other HTowners heading over there tomorrow!

Yeah, not sure we should do this to each other again, but it was awesome nonetheless. :) Great to have you out there though.

Yes, we have to save these possibilities for the race.
