Just ran an easy 5 mile recovery run before leaving on a trip to Washington, DC.  Felt good and ran real easy.  Nothing special.  I have a lot of meetings etc this week but with the cut back for the taper should be able to stay on schedule.  I am anxious about getting the long range forecast for the marathon.  Hopefully it will be favorable.

Jeff, no problem. I just hope I can capture some of your optimism.
