Race Update

So far this year I've run five 1M races, one 2M, five 5Ks, two 5Ms, three 10Ks and a 12K. Did another mile and 5K on 5/28 at the Modesto Classic. Need to start building my mileage base toward the Giant Race at AT&T Park on 8/27. Doing the half. Haven't done a half since Nov. of last year. My longest runs this year have been 8.25 (2M and 10K) in Jamestown on 4/30, and 7.46 (12K) at the Bay to Breakers on 5/15. Really having fun running now that the hamstring is 100% again. No real issues. The weather has been perfect lately. Making a lot of friends out there at races. I really like that! New 10K PR on 8/13/11 at the VIPS Keep Moving Forward race in Riverbank, CA. 55:36.4. Took a minute and a half off my 10K PR. Pretty excited about that. Really pumped for the Giant Race on 8/27.
