Running at the track gives an accurate measurement of distance--if you can keep the count. Pretty sure I went five miles today though. Was planning to go six. Halfway through mile five decided it wasn't going to happen, then surprised myself by running flat-out the last hundred yards. Finally able to keep a 13 min/mi pace for the entire run too

Yeah. I think I can keep up with you now :)

Since you had mentioned that book, "chirunning", I did a web search on the title. Found a couple of youtube videos explaining the basic style. Turns out to be the same that Bob Cookson taught me back in college.

The only problem is, if you run like that, you only see about four to six feet of the track dead ahead of you. It works though. When you lean forward your stride lengthens and you run faster without even trying.

Was anyone chasing you? :)

You would think wouldn't you?

I hope anyway. :)
