Personal:

I'm a former rower, looking at getting into some other form of competition after "retirement" from my pastime of the previous four years. I'm dedicated, but a little held back by my formerly 215lb 6'7" frame.

Really wet trek a little further down the Burke than I've been. Really enjoyed it, felt great and unpressed the entire time, though the legs got a little bit tired towards the end. 10.08 at 8:08 pace (though that included ~40 seconds of waiting for a stoplight to change and me forgetting to pause). Absolutely no foot or hip pain as of yet, looking to bump the mileage up to ~40 this week, and then a true build-up to the marathon.

Tendonitis has got me down now. What else can go wrong? Taking a week off, hopefully its better sooner rather than later. Going to limit myself to dreadmill, long runs excepted, after that.
