All aboard....the bullet night train.

I ran with my friend tonight, (though the picture is from the right area, it shows daylight instead) and while it was an easy run, I added some bursts of speed in there. At one point, I was able to run down the straightaway path of Central Park Drive East (between 86th and 94th) at a pace of 4:03. Forgive me, but.....what the hell?!!!!

I must write this 5 times on the blackboard...

I AM A LONG DISTANCE RUNNER, NOT A SPRINTER.
I AM A LONG DISTANCE RUNNER, NOT A SPRINTER.
I AM A LONG DISTANCE RUNNER, NOT A SPRINTER.
I AM A LONG DISTANCE RUNNER, NOT A SPRINTER.
I AM A LONG DISTANCE RUNNER, NOT A SPRINTER.

There. Much better.

I wound up with 8.2 miles for the evening. Not bad for a summer's night workout.
