Hey Hey. . .
Lets go!
What a difference two weeks make. Sunny and chilly this morning; I would not mind if tomorrow morning were just like it. Mike's theory is that while sunshine is not technically ideal, it nonetheless is conducive to fast times, probably due to the positive psychological boost embedded in its rays. I'll buy that.
Easy three or so going west on Pine, south on 60th and back east on Cedar. Did strides for the middle portion. One block on, one block recovery. Felt forced and stiff at first, by about three of them I was tearing it up. Felt like I was racing. The streets became Haddonfield (although a few rungs lower on the socioeconomic ladder) and I was flying. This felt great.
I'm ready. 3 or so miles in 26:43.
I got me a fearless heart.
Strong enough to get you through the scary parts.

I saw a study recently, in either Running Times or NYT, that looked at elite finishing times in major marathons. The conclusion was that "ideal racing conditions" are 50s and sunny, not 50s and overcast - like Mike says, probably due to the psychological boost.
Go get em!
You don't feel the pain
Adrenaline keeps me in the game
Adrenaline you don't even feel the pain
Wilder than your wildest dreams
When you're going to extremes
It takes adrenaline
Run through the speed of sound
Every thing slows you down
And all color that surrounds you
Are bleeding to the walls
All the things you really need
Just wait to find the speed
Then you will achieve
Escape velocity
Adrenaline
Screaming out your name
Adrenaline
you don't even feel the pain
You don't even feel the pain
You don't even feel the pain
