Oops!

Last night as I was going through e-mail, I read through one sent by the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon stating there was an error on the course and our finish times were going to be adjusted. Apparently, the one guy in charge of marking the course followed some old markings and we ended up running 800 feet too long! After all is said and done, I eneded up with an adjusted time of 2:14:38. While not a personal record (PR), I am still pleased with the time given the windy conditions.

All of That for This?

Cellcom Green Bay Half Marathon

Four months of training; 283.5 miles logged; one Sunday morning; 25 m.p.h. winds; 2:16:10 for 13.1 miles

Is it worth it? HECK YEAH!!!!

Congrats to all my running buddies who ran in and completed their races today! Take a few days to recover and then we'll see you on the training trail!

Not exactly what I had in mind for "spring" training! Nine miles on the treadmill isn't that bad is it?

I just couldn't bear to have such a lull in my summer race schedule so the inaugural Summerfest Rock 'N Soul Half Marathon it is!

Nine is Less Than Four?

After braving the elements last weekend to run a 15K, I decided to at least take advantage of the sunshine this morning for my training run. I embraced the fact in my mind that today's run was a mere four miles; once I was outside I decided that last week's nine in a competitive setting was much easier. In the end, I got it done, but I'm definitely ready for spring to be here!
