Standards of excellence

I just figured out that my goal is pretty much right on track to be named an All-American for my age group. For runners ages 45-49, I would have to run a 5-minute mile to achieve the Standard of Excellence. The 800 mark is 2:11. At ages 50-54, those slow down to 5:10 and 2:16.

I feel good today. My legs are a little sore (on Saturday I did a lot of running all over the course), but they're OK. Normal rest day. So far, so good.

Stay on the grass as much as you can. Makes a huge difference.
