11.5mi, 1:17:27 (6:44/mi): OOOOUUU-LUUUUU! Or at least that's what this run should be called. Senner, Buce and BD can weigh-in. Ran on Pre's Trails before adding on over to Hayward for a mile on the track. Evidently we ran past or close to some osprey nests without any mention being made. But it's hard to know what to expect from a man who allows the word "seagull" to be sung at his wedding...

PM: 4mi, 26:36 (6:39/mi): Where's Macarthur Court (Or Hayward Field...)? Yeah. Shakeout run in Eugene after the drive from Seattle. Lost, but giddy, and in typical fashion failed to find the enormous, legendary track located directly across the street from our hotel a quarter-mile away. Problem seems to be that I turned left.
AM: 10mi, 1:07:28 (6:45/mi): Greenlake. Ran the first mile with Paul before he decided it was a waste of his time to train with someone as slow as me and wisely climbed back into bed with Katie.
Week: 74mi. More or less as planned, with two solid workouts but without a real long run. Instead, not only did I watch Senner get married, I watched Lande christen a new Eugene monument with his car not 200m from Pre's Rock.

8mi, 55:25 (6:56/mi): The Tops. Good easy run with PDA around Greenlake, over some trails and through the UW campus fueled by late night burgers and shakes. Name is pending final approval from PDA himself.
