With running less miles this week it was a treat to have fresh legs for Saturdays run.  I ran easy for the first 10 miles with 8 of the 10 miles at 8+ minute miles and then pushed it in for the last 3.35.  (6:46, 6:31, 6:15)

Everything feels ready for Saturday.  Today for some reason I had a light gut ache the first couple miles and I was thinking I sure hope I don't have this Saturday, luckily it went away and then I had that good feeling like you can jog forever.

If you like rain and cold this was a great marathon. The short version of the race is my left quad cramped up at mile 17.75. I nursed it with some walking breaks for a couple of miles then it let me jog easy the rest of the way.

I had a plan to run 6:40's for the first 8 miles then shift to 7:10s around the lake except for the hill and then go back to 6:40's the rest of the way to get me to a 2:59. I kind of stuck to the plan except for at mile 8 a faster group passed by me and I stuck with them for a mile or so before I decided to back off and go back to the original plan. I also took a couple of the first 8 miles just a little to fast but not fast enough to cause a dang cramp at mile 17.

  I didn't warm up much, it just didn't seem appealing with the rain. I did stretch and walk and felt ready to go. It rained almost the entire race. There were a few times that it stopped and my shirt was attempting to get dry then the rain would come back.

  I guess I can always hope for another sub 3 but my old body just wont seem to let me.  I did get 6th out of the 150 in my AD.

Disneyland.  A perfect post marathon place.  I jogged a half mile in the morning and another half in the evening to and from the hotel to Disneyland.

Morning run in Anaheim, CA with a high school speedster named Dallas.  He had no caring about my post marathon legs. The first mile was the only one I enjoyed in 7:16.

Morning run with Dallas.  Once again he didn't want to run slow.  I was able to hold him back somewhat the first two miles then he was like a thirsty horse that could smell water.  The third mile was in 6:38, and the final mile was in 6:00 for me and probably about 5:30 for Dallas, I couldn't stay with him.

Then I did two cool down miles with Taunia which felt much better.

Ran with Dallas half on the beach and half on roads.  As usual he sped up near the end but not as much as usual.  Last mile in 6:40.

Didn't feel to great today. Maybe way to much junk food last week.  I think I gained a couple of pounds also.  Need to refocus for the next marathon.

Same as yesterday, two temple hill repeats.  However, this morning my left calf cramped up with about a mile left.  I hope my body lets me run the UVM next week.
