Wow goal marathon pace is still a distant goal. Good thing I have 22 weeks to get there. It was more like a short tempo run effort this morning.

10 minutes on this new machine at the gym that is like an elliptical but allows more freedom of how you move your feet so you can move them in a running motion or a stair motion or an elliptical motion. I tried to do it was a running motion and it was a bit awkward at first but I got the hang of it. I could see that being a great exercise if one is nursing an injury.

GREAT run at short tempo effort. I am sure you'll be running your mp in no time. :) :) :)

What is this new machine at your gym call?

Does it have a brand or model name?

It's made by Precor and I knew someone would want to know what is was so I looked, but it didn't have a number or name besides Precor on it.

Cool machine!!! :) :) :)

You will have your MP down no sweat!!! Okay, well maybe you will have to sweat a bit ... but that is all part of the game!!! :) :) :)

As for UVM. No, I had not planned on running that one. Isn't it in June? I am already planning on the Moab XTERRA on June 9th and the Spartan Beast on June 30th. I think throwing in a marathon would kill me! :)
