This morning I did fartleks - speed play - for you non-Swedish folks. I am already feeling sore, so I know by Saturday I'll be really feeling the burn. First mile was a warm-up, then I sprinted for 2 miles, then I coasted downhill for a little bit, and then I sprinted the last mile, then I cooled down for a mile. The last mile really stunk. I thought I was going to put-up a good time, needless to say it wasn't. But I am excited about this weekend - I think the weather is going to be good and I am running with semi-pro friend Matt. He is a very accomplished trail runner, in my humble opinion, and I can't wait to get any secrets I can from him.

How was Saturday? Running with a semi pro sounds hard core to me!
