Am: Won my second year of the OKC Memorial Marathon. I will post more and later on this blog entry later on tomorrow, but for now I just want to log the entry before I crash for the evening. Pleased with the effort and how good I felt, especially from mile 18-26.2. Almost felt like a tempo/cruise run the last 8 miles of the race. Had a bowel movement though at mile 14ish which was a big time bummer. Probably lost 45s-1min in the Port-o-john but when nature calls.......Weather was pretty ideal this morning for OKC this time of year especially for the little amount of wind we had. Overall very pleased to get the W in my hometown...Great experience, especially the last stretch on broadway! The support and the energy was amazing!

Felt like I needed/deserved a day off after the marathon yesterday. Recover should be smooth, just the quads feeling a bit beat up. Get a run in tomorrow or two.

AM: Patient cancellation this morning. Got to love that with the semester winding down. Only a week and counting till the break! Was able to sleep in a little longer and get in some miles with Katie, baby, and Jax this morning. Super humid out and feeling pretty sore still from sunday. Nice little way to start the day though. 

 

PM: 4 more. couldn't help it

Got in 9.3 around OC trails with jason and jax. finished the last .7 on tred to get the 10. Feeling good and pretty well recovered. Ready to get on the track for some turn over stuff later this week after the tests. A few more days of easy runs is on the menu for now.
