Another day of rest ... Yea!

Will be rested for my trail Half this weekend ... and the cooler temps!  :-)

Going to Roger Daltry concert tonight.

I have been offered the opportunity to be a pace leader for the 3:45 group (8:30 pace) for the Soldiers Marathon in Columbus, GA in November.   I think this would be a fun experience and a great way to get a long training run in ... although I am not too sure how I feel about running 26.2 three weeks after racing a downhill marathon at all out speed. 

 I have a day to think on it.

Went out for an easy run for lunch ... 2.5 miles to a 6" Subway Italian value meal ... took a little detour on the way back to get a couple more miles.  Low battery popped up at Mile 6, so I threw down a faster last mile just in hopes of recording the whole run ... which it did.

7 mile run is a rest day...dang I have a long way to go :-(

I hope you can do the pace group thing. I've been in two races that said they were going to have pace groups and for some reason both didn't. Both occasions I was really looking forward to the help. I ended up running with Mr. Garmin both races and it was kinda lonesome!

Gaga, well, the 7 miles was an afterthought to my original post, but they were easy ones, until my watch went on the blink the last one! If you pick the right marathon at the right time, I would love to help pace you to a BQ, not that my effort level would be any less than yours, but it would be fun!
