So, Irene came and went and left my wonderful home state a wreck. Couple with that a real jones to get home and I have decided to travel north at the end of September. That makes a big change to the schedule and asks a pretty serious question.
- No marathon PR attempt in November.
- What do I do with all of this base?
Turns out a
very good, very old friend of mine is running (his second) ultra marathon on October 2nd. I'm going to be jumping in with him, the Blues Cruise 50K. Here's a
link to the website, which is quite a bit out of date.
I don't have many expectations as far as the race itself is concerned, but I'll lay out a couple of goals.
- Go under 5 hours.
- Smile.
- (Stretch) 4.5 hours.
I think all 3 are attainable, but am confident in only #2. We'll see. Should be fun. I'll also be running this race in my five fingers. I had wanted to run the marathon in November in them, but this'll have to do.
Thanks for reading and be sure you always have a stretch.
Jay
