 19.1 miles with Matt today. 25 degrees and somewhat windy at 2:30pm. Total run time was 2:25:47 (7:37s).

1st 10.7 miles in 1:22:43 (7:43s) then we took a break for gatoraide before we hit the uphill stretch of the actual St Louis Marathon course. This section was about a 3 mile stretch uphill then about 1.2 miles of flat before rolling up and down for another mile and then stretching back downhill again. So the next 4.3 miles were done in 32:19 (7:30s -- this was the uphill section). The next 3.5 miles were done in 25:00 (7:08s -- this was the rolling up and down before stetching down for about 2 miles) and then the remainder of the run (5:43) was a cool down.

Great run today and great miles for the week. I think you're headed for a great marathon here in a few weeks.

Thanks for the explanation of the LakeAnnDandy name, both Kim and I enjoyed hearing about your old coach and his great words of wisdom. I think you can be proud to be a "Dandy".
