Lunch- 7 ez.  Legs feel typically sluggish for this stage of a taper, but I was able to move at sub-7 pace without trouble, so that is good.  And no tptp.

You better go out and show Bryon what's up.

I prefer to be the underdog/dark horse. Then you can surprise people.

I think Bryon is right in his analysis. Who knows what Jon can do? If he is on his A game, he will be up there in the top 5 for sure. Pretty exciting stuff!

That's pretty cool and belated congratulations on your boy.

Good times.

Didn't you beat Dave James in a race once? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else. Anyway, go show those top 5 predictions what the deal is. You're trained well, rested, tapered, and ready to rip it up right now.
