| Lunch- 6 with the guys. Experimented with my sun arm sleeves that supposedly cool you when wet. Tried them on and off- not sure it makes much of a difference. It would if you could fill them with ice, that's for sure.
Sometimes before races I'm excited. Sometimes I'm determined to win or place high. Sometimes I have a pit in my stomach (not sure why... but those races usually don't end up well). Sometimes I'm ambivalent, indifferent. I'd say the last one is how I'm feeling this time. I think it's how I felt before Pinhoti, too, and is somewhat a reflection of increased racing experience.

| Lunch late run with Webster and Barry. Went behind GE and, sure enough, ran into the turkey. He even chased us for 20 seconds or so. They agreed that he is a very large, intimidating bird. I hope someone shoots him soon. 5 miles or so. Feeling ready for Massanutten this weekend, though I haven't started packing. | |

| Lunch- ran with Aaron and Paul, mainly hearing about Aaron's recent vacation to Norway and Sweden. Sounds like a great place. 4.5 miles with 4 short strides at the end.
They are predicting 2-5 inches of rain between now and Fri at the race location, complete with flash flood warnings. But the race weather should be nice- low of upper 40's, high in the upper 60's. So good air temps but wet feet.

| Report later. Crazy, absurdly rocky race. Ran 95 miles with Jason Lantz, really enjoyed having someone to talk to for 20 hrs. Wet the whole time from record rainfalls and extreme flash flooding, washing out bridges and rerouting the race. Did I mention it was ridiculously rocky? Massanutten ROCKS! |
