Kenyan runners

3 months, 27 days to go to FLM

Today's quote: "You have to go through cycles of extreme poverty and suffering for a while; they are used to that...They get up early, run hard, rest drink tea, get out and run hard again. Wehn Simon Dirorie gets up at 4 a.m. - I'm dedicated, but I'm not that dedicated. - Keith Brantly, on why the Kenyan runners are so good, 1993"

Today I ran 4 miles in the morning Knee hurt. This evening I ran 8 miles with 8 1/2 mile reps at 2min 47s pace - knee didn't hurt. I thought it would have hurt in the evening with the harder run.
