Russian champion tries Crocs, commits to racing a marathon in them
Nikolay Chavkin in the video below did 3x1000,
first two in Adidas carbon-fiber models, the last one in Crocs. Surprised by the result (2:52, 2:52, 2:50) with
the fastest interval done in Crocs, he committed to racing a marathon in Crocs if the video gets 42K likes and
195 comments (for 42 km 195 m, the marathon distance). Nikolay's current marathon PR is 2:14:00. The video
was created by a Russian sporting goods store chain. Their moto is
"more sports - brighter life", which we think is wonderful, and also deserves a Like. If you want to see a fast marathon in Crocs, go to the video and click the Like button. And make sure to share it with your friends.

| Easy 10 miles. We were out of town this past weekend for a funeral so took the afternoon off to get caught up on house items and then went for a run before supper. | |

| Got a big serving of humble pie today. I started out well but quickly faded around mile 18. I know what needs to be done, but my motivation is waning. Regardless, another marathon finish is in the books. Yaa me!!

| 3 miles - All miles at around MP, whatever that is at this point considering my most recent marathon performance. Let's just call it "faster than usual" pace.
5 miles - TM after work all easy.
