Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to accomplish my short term goals first... Once I do that, I will have an idea of what to expect long term... 44 yrs old now and since I've been injured free for 1 month I am jumping back on marathon training. Any recommendations for a good marathon in December 2021? What is your recommendation?

Personal:

Don't knock it until you try it.

Left to Austin at 12:00 pm got there at 4 pm saturday...

Picked up my packet at 4:30 and then headed to the hotel with Gono, Augustine and Noe...

At 5:30 we ate at Olive Garden and at 7pm we headed to my friends place Jack and Adams Bicycle the #1 bike shop in Austin.

With my lifetime bud Jack and the fastest Hispanic Miler in the WORLD! Good times! Thanks Jack and Leo!

Left at 8:00pm and just relaxed at the hotel and slept at 12pm

Wokeup at 6:30 am and this is how it rolled

13th out of 25,000 runners with a 33:13 and 1st in my division of 35-39 (Feels good to represent my age group) here are my splits (5:09,5:23,5:28,5:10,5:12,5:24) I dropped the ball on mile 2 & 3! Grinding is part of racing and today was one of those days I had to grind it out! Thanks for the support and on to the next one...

Top 25 individuals last year I ran a 31:50 but today was freaking hot!

11 miles with 6 miles at 5:55-6:15 felt lethargic ...these are the days I hate...“I think I can, I think I can.”- The Little Engine That Could
