| In OC for business. Ran at Crystal Cove. Waves were angry and tide was high so I was fighting the ocean for beach to run on. Got wet a few times. Watched sun rise over Morro canyon. The energy was amazing! Loved it. | | Add Comment |

| 12 on TM all at 1.0 percent incline. Solid workout. Ran with tighter laces on L shoe. Seemed to help with L foot pain. I think it's an old soccer injury flaring up on me. The tighter laces helped during run but I can feel the pain after running. Hopefully will pass. | | Add Comment |

Cold morning (about 38 degrees) but fortunately not raining or snowing. Started a little fast with first mile at 6:19. Keith and I paced each other at 1:28 pace until mile 10. I faded hard but wanted to hit my goal of 1:30 and guaranteed entry to NY marathon so I kept pushing. Got to mile 13 at 1:29:34 and gave it all I had. Clock read 1:30:03 when I crossed, so I was a little bummed. Didn't think my gun / chip differential was 4 seconds but got good news an hour later - my chip time was 1:29:59.9. Love the 0.9 part of it! I may have garnered another clue to my stomach / dehydration problems. I drank a full cup of gatorade at the first aid station and felt sick for a few miles. I pushed through all of that but had a number of moments where I felt like I could have pulled over and vomited. I skipped the second aid station because my stomach felt so bad, and I drank only tiny sips of water at the third and fourth stations. 30 seconds after finished I had to find a bush and empty my stomach. It was still loaded with gatorade somehow. Maybe the sweetness of the gatorade is shutting my stomach down? I know some people dislike the taste. I don't mind the taste, but perhaps the sugar content is doing something to me? Anyway, perhaps I need to avoid the gatorade in future races and use pills or something for electrolytes? I kept pretty good split times. Here they are: Mile 1 - 6:19; m2 - 6:42; m3 - 6:35; m4 - 6:45; m5 - 6:58; m6 - 7:01; m7 - 6:42; m8 - 7:02; m9 - 7:05; m10 - 6:36; m11 - 7:21; m12 - 7:23; m13 - approx. 7:01; 0.1 - approx 0:24.

| Another beautiful run in Newport. Ran down past CC promenade with idea of doing the beach run but the tide was so high there was zero beach, so ran back to Newport Coast and then went all the way to top and looped through Pelican Hill and back to Marriott. Felt great. Legs mostly recovered from Saturday's race. Submitted my application for the NY marathon last night! | | Add Comment |
