Midnight Train to Georgia

May 7

5.25mi, 35:52 (6:50/mi): Franklin-Lake. Back to the cities, rolling on the river, only much different from related river rolling the night before. Good easy run to cap the week. Legs felt a little stiff from Friday's slip and the grooving. Self felt vaguely as if there had been a garter on its head the previous night.

Week: 60mi

SLABBAJ SHOUT OUT: To Andrew Schroeder, Lake Monona 20K Champion in 1:11:26. Started out at 5:50s, (18:06 at 5K), dropped some local pretenders and negative split the whole shebang!

May 6

8mi, 50:41 (6:20/mi): Stone Mountain Park outer loop with Bucy and Senner. Hotter day and a very hilly loop, but the two Slab City members were able to handle it easily. Unsurprisingly, Team XO made repeated requests that the pace be slackened despite the fact that they had wanted to complete a tempo run on this particular morning. Team XO claims to have added on for 13mi after Slab City grew weary of their complaining, but that seems unlikely given the difficulty they had in completing the inital 8. Either way, Team XO left an awful lot to be desired on the dance floor that night. Slab City, on the other hand, were collectively desired somethings. At least one bridesmaid may need stitches...

(Congratulations to Bryan and Katie!)

May 5

12mi, 1:23:44 (6:59/mi): Stone Mountain Park trail loop + inner loop. Beautiful run with Bryan and Graham on the trails for most of it. Slipped badly during a stream crossing and wrenched most of my upper right leg...but fortunately Paul offered plenty of medicaton that night.
