I’m not going to do a ‘real’ poll, since I think you have to have an LJ to respond. Plus, this way people can leave details.

Just updated my list of races I’ve run.. I really didnt have that great a race year overall. I thought it was interesting that I had the same pace for the Cap City 10 Miler in July as I did for the Home Stretch 20 Miler in September: 8:32. And yet I can run a [...]

For anyone else who ran or wants [...]

It’s official, I am a cold weather runner.
The forecast was for cold, rain, wind, even snow. I wore a long-sleeved shirt, shorts, a new coolmax hat AND SMARTWOOL SOCKS. I covered up with another long sleeved shirt and wrapped a garbage bag around my legs.

I have a new PR!
Race report to come, but…
first half: 1:44:21
second half: 1:45:21
3:29:41, off my old PR of 3:30:05.
Feeling pretty good, tylenol at mile 6 is a GOOD idea!
