Got an hour in on the trails just as the snow started.  Easy pace again, things feeling better, ART guy really put the fix on my heel, 3 sessions and I'd say I'm feeling 90%.  Still a few few tweaks in my left foot from kicking a root on a run last week but all in all feeling ready to go for Saturday.  Starting to feeling the excitment of running with the heard again.  Not sure what to expect, all running for the last six weeks has been easy, pace base with no speedwork or higher intensity running at all.  We'll see how that plays out, not really a focus race, so really going into it with low pressure/expectations.  A better time than last year is what I'm after, that said, I'll still give it a 100% effort and see what it gets me.

1 hour, probably 6 miles or so, 800 vert. easy pace.

What was your time last year?

And what are you targeting for the Buffalo Run this year? I'm hoping to go around 8:30, if not a little faster if I feel good.

Last year I ran 6:05. Pretty soft time I think, my knee was a huge issue the last 10 miles or so, but no idea what to expect this year, just hope it's better than 6:05, we'll see, just looking forward to a fun long run!

I ran 8:29 last year at Buffalo and feel like it was a good time for me and I felt like I had a great day, again, no real projections this year, somewhere just under last year would be good, haven't put too much thought into that yet. I think under 8:30 is totally doable for you. Good time to shoot for, then you'll be happy when you finish faster.
