Eight out Tracyton Beach Road to the usual turnaround and back; can't use Lions Park because it's under construction so I stuck to Lebo. On the way out 7:30 pace, picked it up some on the return because my hands were freezing. Sun was out breaking over the horizon, but it was a gloves morning and I didn't wear gloves. They've thawed enough to type, however. 

Felt good, no lingering soreness or fatigue from Sunday. Guess I didn't run hard enough that day. 58:47

I'm thinking about heading up to run each half of the WR50 course over a couple of Saturdays between now and July, since it's so nicely split into part 1 and 2. Any interest in joining me for a death march or two?

I'd love to. My Saturday schedule for the immediate future is prepping for North Olympic and a race on the 15th. I'll be in Cle Elum the weekend after the marathon, so that's out. Tentatively, how does June 19 sound?

I get back in town that Friday after a 2 week business trip to the flatlands so I might be a bit off, but otherwise it works for me.
