Good afternoon halfers, had an unscheduled day off from work yesterday. Ran 4 miles after church. It seemed quite warm where there was no shade. 74 F in the shade, needless to say I finished both water bottles before I finished. 5 scheduled for tonight. Off tomorrow.
Joe- HM this weekend! I am glad you are feeling better. Do you have a specific fueling strategy?
Peg- how was the party yesterday? Remember, as 1 door closes, 10 others open.
I watched the NYC marathon on NBC yesterday. It is sad that of the 37,000 participants the sports casters only saw 5 of them. We all know that the better stories where with the middle/back of the pack.
I also watched the PBS marathon challenge online. It was very inspirational. I must admit I watched it 3 times.
Spicegeek- I was wanting Paula to win, but I think the lady (can?t remember her name) that was 2nd may have injured something in the last mile.
Wbertha- the temps here have cooled off significantly also. Since the time change most of my runs will be during the night. I must practice dressing right since my half is in Jan.
Laurel- ICE! Ice immediately after the run/workout along with some advil will help with the swelling/soreness.
Kevin- welcome, I think GB ½ in May would be great. That is a good goal. You have a coach?
Monnik- hope your 4 was OK, and you relaxing afterward.
Good running
Stan
