The Java Jog was fun; however I never jogged. I didn't do as well as I thought I would, even after not running since Wednesday (thought I'd be well rested) thought wrong. On 2 Aug 09 I ran this distance in close to the same time after running 7 miles and 11 miles the day before. So much for resting. If I would've kept the pace from my first mile it would've been a strong run. Did I mention that two little kids passed me. This gave me the impression I was running slow until I looked at my GPS. When they passed me I was running a 6:48mm. For a couple kids that looked about 12yr's old or younger they are strong runners or had wheels in their shoes? I highly doubt they had wheels they were running like someone from the IRS was behind them! Click on the image bellow for the 2009 Java Jog Results: Activity

"In running, it doesn't matter whether you come in first, in the middle of the pack, or last. You can say, 'I have finished.' There is a lot of satisfaction in that."
-Fred Lebow, New York City Marathon co-founder
You've got to have goals Fred; my goal was to finish in less than 21 minutes. it's not enough for me to just finish a run around the block!
