Yes,yes,yes it's World Cup time again!!!every four years,the world comes together for the greatest show on earth along w/ the Olympics and everything comes to a stand still,let's put it this way my weekend will be built around the three games at 7.am,10am and 2.30pm and thanks to Espn 3 on my pc at work I can follow the games during the week....God bless "The Beautiful Game"

Post work and the Uruguay France game it was off to Temple to use their track for my 4x1mile repeats.....you could say one form of worship to another....mile warm up and stretches taken care of it was business time

#1 mile 1.18,1.18,1.18,69-5.03.7.Picking up where I left off back on May 15th when I went:5.06.8-5.04.0-5.03.7-5.02.5. I ran a 1.18 clinic for the opening 3 laps b4 closing in 69.

#2 mile 1.16,1.18,1.16,71-5.01.6.For a brief moment when I clocked 3.50 at the bell there was a temptation to floor it for a sub 5,but looking at the big picture and knowing I had two more repeats to come I settled for a slight increase in pace to continue bringing my splits down.

#3 mile 1.17,1.18,1.15,69-4.59.4.Booyah sub 5!!I felt it was only a matter of time after closing in 5.02.5. 4 weeks ago,where the 1.15 split came from I don't know but the 45/50 mile weeks are doing wonders I'd say

#4 mile 1.16,1.16,1.15,67-4.54.7.Two sub 5s and frankly it could've been three,this was a workout to remember,when 1.18 is your slowest split and on #3 and #4 you can drop a 1.15 on lap three you have know you're doing something right.

On June 28th 2008 I clocked mile repeats of4.42,4.58.1,5.06.8,4.59.4.followed by 4.53.6,4.51.8,4.55.4,4.56.8. on July 5th,June 28th was 6 weeks b4 Nationals that year,due to my schedule it'll be two weeks b4 my next mile repeats on June 25th but I'm eager to see if I can go 4 sub 5 mile repeats.
