Valley Green to Forbidden Drive (NW) out and back - 10 miles, averaged 7:29. Did some strides.
Enjoyed watching the Chicago Marathon. Tracked a few guys who dropped at odd points (35k and 40k). Mr. Krong went after it, which was good to see. Given the hard start and tough finish he really wasn't far off PR range. One of my training buddies ran 2:49, and he was planning to run 6:00 pace even though "it probably wouldn't end well." It always gets me excited to race in the fall.
