2:05, I estimate about 15 miles. Felt pretty good but I went out too fast, thinking "I feel great, I could keep this pace forever." My legs and the head wind from my 11 on did not agree :) But I just slowed down to finish up, no big deal. I am kind of glad it happened- that is definitely a lesson to remember marathon morning!!

My friend Steve from home (MD) is running the Columbus marathon tomorrow morning and has a chance to win!! He is aiming for a 2:30 so I will be tracking him online during the race!

Thanks Kelsie! Do you have a marathon coming up?

Nice run Kelsey!!

You are still over a month out from MCM ... you are going to nail your "major goal."

Britta: November 29th I am running a really small marathon in Mississippi. So I've only got 2 really long runs left, an 18 and a 20!

Thanks Teena, I sure hope so!!!

Not only are you fast, but you have such posh tastes in shoe color. If only I could pull off magenta...

From kelsey on Sun, Oct 19, 2008 at 16:42:49

Haha, thanks. I am sure you could pool off the magenta. My dad always said you know if a man is secure with his manhood if he wears pink :)

Ooops, I was about to respond to your swimming advice and I must have had "pool" on the brain when I typed that!!!
