AM: easy run with six striders. 3 days to go. Weather for Cocoa, Florida on Sunday looks... Relatively bad for marathon running. Mostly sunny, 70-78 degrees, 10-20mph winds (seriously? what the hell?), 70-75% humidity, and dew point around 65. Guess I'll be chaffing... Current goals without taking weather conditions into account at all. A+) 2:40:00 A) sub 2:42:00 B) sub 2:45:00 C) sub 2:50:00 F) above 2:56:44 Minor goals: to hurdle some half-marathon walkers on the way back as opposed to weaving around (ideally while they are tying their shoes), to not bleed from the nipples (or at least bleed out), to not cramp (hilarious dream), to high five at least 10 people along the way, to attempt to high 5 Joe Burgasser and get snubbed, to attempt to high 5 him a second time and get snubbed again but this time casually pass my hand through my hair as if it was planned, and lastly to fashion a pancake sandwich after the race and eat it while drinking a beer. A boy can dream. |
