This race was not my best, but it was what I should have expected after having spend most of the summer bike riding in preparation for the LOTOJA. I ran the first 17 miles at 7:33 (128 minutes) and the remaining 9 miles in 92 minutes. Calf and chest cramps and exhaustion. Heat and dehydration were factors. Awesome marathon though. Next time.

Fell hard on some lava rock during a family fall trip to the Grand Canyon. Landed on the pointed end of a boulder with my full weight on my right butt cheek. Deep bruise. Shaking from running is very painful. Left foot bothering me some since St. George

Soaked foot in ice last night and was able to run about 3/4 of a mile before it started to bother me. Finished two easy miles.

Spin class for 1 hr and then a few easy miles on the treadmill. Been soaking my foot morning and night in ice water. Seems to be helping.
