Early evening tempo run

This evening, I ran approx. 3.3 miles (guesstimated). Time: 34:41. When I was a little past a mile into the run, I did a full-power tempo for about maybe 30 to 40 seconds. Hard to tell the time w/out glasses on. So, I guessed that was how long it was. The rest of the run was about just doing the distance as consistent as possible with as few walk brakes as possible. I noticed that the total distance ran this week was 11.4 miles. Now, as I can see, that's the most I've done in a week in quite a while! Coool!!!! Countdown to the 10k --- T minus 8 days and counting! Race day is Sunday July 15th @ 8:30am. In addition to training, I am also working on the nutrition aspect of the game. I am trying to loose the gut size as best as possible until the race day is here. I've lost about 11.8 pounds. While I'm sure this has helped a lot, I want to loose more to better my chances. I'm currently @ 182.8 and hope to loose 2.8 pounds this week. Well, there is hoping! he he
