AM:  Peach Days Fun Run.  Used this mostly as a workout, since it was pretty low key.  Wanted to be a good hard workout, and significantly under MP.  Got that taken care of.  Actually, the awards are done by how close you come to your predicted time.  No watches allowed.  I predicted 40 minutes for 7.2 miles.  The course ended up being long though (I thought my final time sounded much slower than it should have been, so I used both the Course Tool and another source to clock it and both gave me 7.6 miles).  At 7.2 miles at my pace I would have been at 39:54--so I was actually pretty dang close.  But I didn't really care.  Just got a great tempo workout in so that's fine with me.  More running tonight.

42:07 (5:32/mi.)

PM:  7 more easy miles before going to the rodeo.  No watch.

Yeah, lots of peaches and apricots too. My neighbor is a peach farmer, along with several others, and everyone has trees in their backyard. There is a 10,000 tree church farm too. The climate is perfect, as long as you have a way to get water.

Nice job. I imagine being only 6 seconds off you actual time might have won you an award?

Nicely done!
