Lunch run outside, almost beating the rain.  9.4 miles out and back on CR over behind Walamrt and all the way to US 31 - about 8-8:30 pace.  Feeling hungry and maintaining the leg fatigue, still.

AM - TM run at gym - 15 miles in 2 hours.  Ate 1 gel and took it pretty easy/relaxed.  Drank a bunch of water.  10 mile race tomorrow morning in Louisville.  No big expectations given recent race results.

8 am - Papa Johns 10 mile race in Louisville.  35-40 degrees and sunny with very little wind.  Run this one 4 or 5 times, now, but missed it last year.  Carpooled with 4 other Quaff guys, and briefly caught up with some old acquaitences from college prior to start.  The course is a lollipop with a hilly park loop in the middle of the race, with mile 10 up and down over a bridge and in to Papa Johns football stadium (for UofL football team) and is well attended - competative and lots of people.  Solid race for me today, exceeding expectations.  Kept it right around 6 minute pace with some varying miles in the hilly park:

5:58, 5:54, 6:06, 6:08, 5:58, 6:01, 5:41, 6:01, 5:56, 6:04, and then 0:22 for the GPSed partial 0.1

1:00:22 is a course PR (by about 1minute), and was good for top 50 finish.
