| Humid early morning run in San Antonio with five other folks from the RRCA class. Pace was 10ish, except Steven wanted to walk some. Temp was not horrible, about 70, but humidity very high. I didn't remember SA being this humid. I guess it is. Not a dry thread by the time we got done. Fortunately, we were right there at the club to shower, change and go upstairs for the class. Off tomorrow to fly home, dress rehearsal Tuesday morning. Oh, and take the test some time. Also have to remember to email Randy a copy of my Red Cross certificate. |

| Scheduled RD Monday, then thunderstorms wiped out yesterday. So I finally got out in the fog this morning for the dress rehearsal. Legs felt really heavy and I was working too hard, but then the last two miles things kicked in and I felt better and ran faster. The Newtons did OK, except one came untied. I guess they were just tied too tight last week. Probably one more little jog, and then it's balls on the table at Bayshore. Do or don't do; there is no try. |

| Arrived in Traverse City, went for a shakedown run along Munson Ave. Little did I know that everyone's yard along there is a sand dune. I spent 33 minutes jumping over stuff. More work than I wanted to put in. Then I hammered the last half mile to start the Aussie carbload. Oh well, just show up tomorrow, run as fast as I can for as long as I can and see what happens. |

| I'll come back with a full race report at some point. For right now, let's just say I crashed and I'm not happy. I cut too many corners in training. Skipped too many tempo runs and MP work. I can't do that. I'm not fast enough to cut corners. I have to do all the work. And it caught up to me very early. I pretty much blew up at the half. I was within a minute of my goal at the half, and then ran the inward half in 2:03. That is not going to get it done until I'm about 65. But I hurt more at the finish today than I did after any of my three faster marathons. |
