			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wednesday night we took the kids to the pool, and Susan and I planned to do a swim. When we got there we decided Susan would go first and she said, &#8220;Are we doing a easy 750?&#8221; She knew that was the plan since we were doing a 5K running race the next day. Obviously she had different ideas because when she finished and I asked her how it was she said &#8220;13:38, let&#8217;s see you beat that.&#8221; My previous fastest time for a 750 was probably around 13:50 but I have never been one to turn down a challenge so I took off to beat her time. I finished in 12:20 so I won but it wasn&#8217;t exactly what I had in mind for a easy day before a race.</p>
<p>Yesterday morning we did the Greensboro Gobbler, a 5K running race at Country Park in Greensboro. The race was at 9am and when we left the house it was 30 degrees out so I wasn&#8217;t exactly excited (I like cold weather I just don&#8217;t like working out in it for some reason). There were 1063 people in the race so it was PACKED in the park but it was still a fun run. The park has a lot of hills so it isn&#8217;t exactly the best race for us Clydesdales and Athenas but Susan and I both had a good race. The race was two laps around the park and by the second time around the hills were slowing me down more than I would have liked. In the end I was slower than I wanted to be but it was still my fastest time ever in a race (although I have been faster in some training runs), I was even fast enough to lap a lot of people so I was happy with it. Susan also had her best time ever in a 5K so she was happy. I wasn&#8217;t surprised with her time because she has been running really good lately. I keep telling her she is faster now but she doesn&#8217;t want to admit it.</p>
