Saugatuck Town Crier 10K

6.2 Miles - 44:41

First 10K of the year today, the Saugatuck Town Crier. It was another chilly race day, around 40 degrees, but it was also raining, which made it tough. It wasn't a big race as far as competitors, seemed like most of the people that were there do it every year.....except for the crew I came with.

Again, I started the race way too fast, under a 7 minute mile. I also felt tired immediately, which had me a little nervous. Mile 2 ended with a large hill, which I never mind, but I just didn't feel as powerful going up that hill as I usually do. Normally that's where I gain ground on the field. I think around Mile 3 my hands warmed up, and I didn't notice the rain so much any more. Mile 3 and 4 were my slowest miles of the race, I think that early mile did me in. Mile 5 I picked it up a bit, and I was surprised that I got a second wind for Mile 6 and picked up the pace a little more. I even had a decent kick on the home stretch, mostly motivated by not wanting to get passed in the last 3 minutes of another race by a senior citizen.

My mile times average 7:12, and according to my 5K speed, I should have ran this race just under 46 minutes, so the training is definitely working. I also shaved about 1:30 off of my best and only 10K time from last year. All in all it was a good time, we had a group of 6 of us there, proving to me once again that running with a herd is much more fun that going to races on your own.

I will have 4 runs this week, one of which will be an Interval workout, then rest of for the Striders 10 Miler next Saturday.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
