did the tri relay with my wife on the swim and my  buddy on the bike. I passed a ton of people on the run and it was fun to have targets to chase down. Definitely a blast. Going into the 10k i felt like I would just use it as a tempo and thats effectively what happened. Got a great workout in and had a nice fitness check as far as being able to hold 6's go. Splits:

1- 5:51.1 

2- 6:02.3

3- 6:01.1 (17:54, 5:58 pace)

4- 6:10.9

5- 6:16.9

6- 6:19.5 (18:45, 6:15 pace, +:51 second split)

last .25-- 1:22 (5:28 pace, not bad up a big hill)

TOTAL-- 38:04, 6:05 avg pace.
Overall, a good workout. you can see where fatigue began to play a role and that is a sign of what kind of shape im in, steady through about 4.
