Golden Eagle 10K 2009
As I was sitting updating the football scoreboard- Dave came into my office and around 10 p.m. we decided to run a 10K race in Jacksonville Saturday morning.
Dave had been hitting the right miles to do a 10K. I on the other hand had not. I’ve been focused on trying to get in shape for Cyclocross.
Despite my reservations we ran on a supringsly warm Novemebr morning. The course was mainly an out-and-back on the Chief Ladiga Trail, with a short spur creating the start and finish.
I went out hard and kept pushing the pace. Around mile five I started losing speed, but managed to only lose a few places. Consequently I was able to pull together a 10K PR.
Last year I ran the 6.2 miles in 49:59.78.
This year- my unofficial time was 47:18.
Plus I received yet another unmarked medal for third place in my 10 year age group.
I really hope I didn’t blow up my legs for cyclocross.

I’ve been loving this early morning light- now that the clocks have fallen back.
career day
I was asked to split career day at Westbrook Christian School with Laura Catoe.
I took the first half, she the second. I loaded up with my cameras, the laptop and broadband card, and several stacks of various dead tree editions.
Lesson learned- kids aren’t really interested in journalism- they are interested in candy.
I found a couple of interested kids, but my observations were much like Laura’s some kids had it all together- others scarily couldn’t a sentence together.
