Marathon Run #16 (10 miles)

Total time- 1:46. Definitely better than the 11 mile pace I was shooting for (1:50). Another awesome day for a run sunny and 50s. The planes were landing over the trail again but timing didn't work out quite as well this time. I tried taking a break every 1.25 m and it worked really well. I was able to run strong at the end and didn't feel too bad at all. I've gotta work out better timing though to make sure I'm closer to home when I get done with the run. This time I got the 10 m done but had to walk for a bit to get back home. Once I got home, I stretched, iced, took a very brief nap, showered and went rock climbing. I enjoyed climbing tonight did the red 5.8 overhang (second attempt) and also did the V1 bouldering blue route.

I talked to CR yesterday and we are going to do the adventure race in September. I re-read the Post article and am intimidated (what else is new). Anyway, it's a go but we need a third team member. I'm going to ask EC if she's inerested. She's got crew experience which will help the canoeing piece. I also talked to JC on Saturday and we are going to plan a backpacking trip for July in August. That should be cool! I saw Rachel last night for dinner at MC's.
