Looks pretty BEEFY to me. Good job man. Your right where you want to be- Ogden should be great.

Thanks Clyde, all the work is done. Now couple more easy track workouts to stay fresh. Like you said earlier, Its the worse part.

I love that workout! I've got to give it a try. Although, I may take things a bit easier. The last time I tried to match your splits, I overdid it and could n't race the weekend :-) This blog can be dangerous.

You are running strong. It'll be fun to watch you crush the Odgen Marathon. I'll be chasing Riley in the half--he's on a tear right now.

@scott- this workout to me is a great simulator for the marathon. It allows the body to react when there is surges in the race. Hopefully it will help. Also Riley is tearing things up, I think Ogden he will be a low 1:08 if not close to a high 1:07, if he is not blown from all of his racing lately :)
