fivefingers on the run: August 2010
http://fivefingersontherun.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Fivefingers on the run. My ramblings for everyone to see. Monday, August 23, 2010. We got to the run around 7:20 and they were just about to start the "elite" division - guys who could easily run under 18:00 5k and women who were probably under 19:30 or so. There was prize money for this race, and they let the women leave 2 minutes earlier than the guys. Interesting. I was 7th overall and 1st in my age group. Riverside 5000 Open * 5 km * August 14, 2010. River Parks, Tulsa, Okla. This was my first 10k of...

fivefingers on the run: June 2010
http://fivefingersontherun.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Fivefingers on the run. My ramblings for everyone to see. Saturday, June 12, 2010. This was the fifth annual Blair Elite Downtown Mile race in Blair, Nebraska. I got an email from the Omaha Running Club that they were going to be nice enough to allow community entrants into the race - normally it is invite-only. I had never done a mile race before and it was only $10 so I thought - why not? I didn't practice 200 meter repeats, or go to a track for workouts or anything. just thought I would wing it. Impre...

It was a nice, cool morning and I showed up early and went into the seeded runners area.

Fivefingers on the run. My ramblings for everyone to see. Wednesday, August 11, 2010. Lake Wehrspann 10k - 8.1.10. This was my first 10k of the year, and I was not training for it specifically at all. I did no interval training, speedwork, mile repeats, etc. I have just been running, and mostly on trails. That being said, I was just out to break 40 minutes again. That would suffice. The course was very scenic and you could see the lake virtually the whole time. I was around 5. Place, behind 3 males and 1...

We had close to thirty runners, with 7-8 signing up the day of the race. I never did catch up with ...
