6 miles in the blowing snow in Columbus. I was not feeling well before this run. I think it may have been a bad idea.

This race is in Birmingham al. I bit warm today 66 at the start. 70 by finish. I signed up for the marathon but I had the flu this week. It became apparent about 8 miles in that I was not ready for the marathon. I kept a 7:20 for 8 miles before the wheels fell off.
