Multi-hour workouts at noon on a weekday rocks! I'm hoping that the trail running really has helped with strength & speed. Not working has definite advantages.

Because then I would've turned on the computer. And checked my email.....and not sent you a dozen texts & VMs! No worries about the ditching - as long as you were having fun. *smirk* I think that the part about reaching the finish line & eating strawberries will happen pretty definitely. :)

Our half is going to be great. My goal - get to the end and eat strawberreis :) Easy peasy! You really did have a stellar week – even with the again crappy suburbia run that I ditched you on.

I think this week, I just really need to concentrate on stretching & icing a LOT. My hips and ankles have been pretty sore lately, and I'd really like to feel GOOD after the half, and not like I want to die. :) Starting right after the half, I go into full marathon training, and I am unaccountably scared! EEK! Have you done a full marathon schedule? Are you following a plan? I'd be interested in seeing it, since we're running on the same day. I kind of looked through your archives, but didn't see anything pop out at me.

Nice work. You hit it hard this week. Seriously, twelve hours is like a part time job. Lacksadasical training? Since when is 12 hours lazy? You worked your butt off! I'm excited to see how this race goes for you. I've had friends who shocked the hell out themselves because they didn't train as much as they usually do. 11 miles on the mtb is no joke. Nice work.
