Saturday Morning with The Beat Program
Well, I was out there with the Beat Program that Bill Dwyer and Kim Hager put on for Luke's Locker. I can't say that I stuck to the group that I started out with.
I got there just a couple of minutes late or I would have gone out with a little bit faster group; however, I really needed to keep today's run at about 80%. I think I did that.
It was a great morning to run. George Roffe said that mileage was 5.953 miles and I covered it in 1:02:58 for a 10:34/mile. If I can do that tomorrow, I'll be in 2:17-range for the half marathon in Germantown, Tennessee. But I believe that it is a hilly course. So we'll see.
Regardless, I just want to go and run well.
One of my TIR teammates and an original HRB, Dave Smart, was out working with the bunch. Rich Cooper and Liz Berry from Woodlands Fit lead groups for Bill. Debbie Tripp and Althea Caldwell from The Woodlands Running Club were there, as were two of Bill's TIR teammates -- Scott Mayer and Juliee Sparks.
On the roads, I saw Dan Jordan of Woodlands Fit and Dana-Sue Crews on her bike getting ready for Ironman Arizona.
I had a gentleman that walked up and introduced himself as Jeff Paul and said that he has been reading my blog for a "long time" - as he put it. He went on to say that seeing that if I could do it (i.e. go out and run) ... so could he. I was very humbled and I shared with Waverly on the ride home that you never know who is watching in this world to everything that you do.
