6.5 on the treadmill.  I made my replacement part at work, but didn't install it just yet.  This indicates my level of optimism.  I'm skipping my regular job today so I can do my other job.  The weather today looks fantastic, and tomorrow will be rainy and windy.

Nice getting your miles in. Are you going to taper for this race?

i hope the replacement part works out, although i was looking forward to a TM on 2x4s entry.

nice in this job market to have an alternate job.

Tara, if I'm going to taper, I better hurry and start. Since my "training" for this race is pretty much non-existent, I'll just show up and see if I can be faster than last year's freeze-out.

allie, I still haven't worked up the nerve to try the part. I'm not satisfied the part failed, but suspect the lift-motor malfunctioned and caused the failure. Things like this are probably among the reasons you have forsaken treadmill running.

JD, your words suggest great wisdom.
