AM - 10.5 miles. First half of the run along the lake shore path with Andrea, then added on around the harbor and finished by running the last 2.1 miles of the race course. Pretty much all of the turns in the entire race are in this stretch, and I wanted to get it locked into my head for next year. Stood in Lake Superior for a while afterwards... Whew that is a cold lake! It's a beautiful day in Duluth... Sunny and warm! After breakfast we rented cruiser bikes and rode around for a while, then walked several more miles, did another round of soaking in the cold lake, and now we're just killing a little before we fly back to SLC. The awards dinner last night was a lot of fun (and had great food). A highlight for me was when Adam Goucher came up and introduced himself to me, and told me that he likes our blog (wasatch and beyond). That was pretty cool because I've been a huge fan of his for over a decade. I felt really good on the run this morning... Although a couple easy weeks will be good for the body and mind. In other news, did you know Dairy Queen will just fill up a 16oz soda cup withsoft serve for you? It's not on the menu... But apparently we've been to the one across the street enough is weekend that the manager decided to let us in on that secret! :-) |
