I'm in Dana Point 45 minutes before the 10K. Not sure what will happen. I would like to run a sub-40 10K but today won't be the day for that ... February. I've done no speedwork since September and am still in the early build phase of my marathon cycle I'm 7 pounds heavier than racing weight. Today's course has 4 U turns and 4 right angle turns. I also had a terrible night's sleep last night. No of this gives reason for a fast time. However it is flat, at sea level and this morning's weather is fantastic.
This should serve as a good gauge of where I'm at. My secret hope is to run 40:30. This would allow me to drop down to a faster level in my training program.

I'll report back later.
