Personal:

I was born in Moscow, Russia in '68, where I started running sprint events in '83. I moved to the US (NYC area) in '91 and didn't run again till '96 when I discovered road racing scene. I was hooked after my first 5K race. I had another break in running from '01-'04 and decided to seriously get back into it in August of '05. I'm married and have 16 year old daughter. I have moved to London in August '06, will probably stay here for a few years.

very easy run for recovery. Felt good, but didn't want to run any faster on purpose.

did 8x50-55sec (~150m) hill bounding on Summit St. hill. Very hard, my ankles and quads were killing me.

I think I started too fast and then had to back off. It wasn't easy.

I had to switch around my long run and recovery run this week due to time and scheduling conflicts. Hope it doesn't affect me next week.
