Computer at work is up and running again.  OH YEAH!!  So I can log my runs again at home.:)  Went for a run again on the same route at Monday with Alex again.  Had a really good run this time.  I think the first 2 miles were faster then what we did before.  Right close to the end of the 2nd mile he asked for a break.  Of course I didn't let him take one just slowed it down.  I know I am mean.  But he thought that was just enough and then we headed up hill for the last .45 to his house.  Ended up a bit faster I think for that part.  Then I was off to finish the rest alone.  After hitting the uphill mile I was feeling great.  And had the wind at my back.  Started picking up the pace a bit more and it felt good.  Hit the last corner and reset the the lap for the last lap.  Oh and it was a good one.  With around .2 to go I was at 6:05 pace and started to push it harder to get it under 6 mins.  But just barely missed it.  And luckily the light turned at the right time.  I finally stopped on the other side of cross walk.:)  Dang it just missed it but it is the fastest I have ran that mile before so feeling really good.  1 more week till the 5k.:)

Was inspired to run this last mile harder then before after reading Rhett's speedy mile interval.  Hopefully here soon I will get that under 6.:)

Smooth- I hate to count it too. I hope to go under that 6 mm next week.

Nguy- Thanks man. I need to get doing some 400 repeats like you. You ran some killer ones.

Andy- Thanks bro. Working on finishing strong on my runs.
