4 nice and easy after work with Darin.

AP: 9:00+

42F, no wind

Slight right hammy tightness. Toes are still a little sore (had to pop a few blisters between the toes after the marathon (forgot to put powder or body glide on them before the race)

Other than that, feeling pretty good. Starting to think about my next race!

LOL so what is your next race man?? Great job again on the marathon and good to see you out hitting it again already.

Next race is Cow town right? You are going to be the best pacer out there again I know it!

From MarcE on Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 01:15:22 from 206.225.68.25

Yes, my next MARATHON is Cowtown. I'm seriously considering going to Austin at the end of January (4 weeks before Cowtown) and running the 3M Half Marathon)

I'll probably do a few short races sprinkled in there, too -- I wanna see if I can break 20:00 in the 5K..:)

Thanks, guys!

Looks like someone has caught the racing bug again. Very fun.

NICE recovery run. Glad you caught the race bug again! :)
