This morning was the last group run, a little 8 miler, as we taper. It was the first time back with the group since my last marathon, and it occurred to me, some people that promised me hugs, didn't pay up (Brenda, Vicki, am I forgetting somebody?).
Anyway, next Sunday, I'll run marathon #2 out of 5 for the Texas Marathon Challenge in San Antonio!!!
Set your VCRs. Tomorrow (Sunday), NBC, 12:30-1:30 PM, NYCM highlight show. Lance Armstrong is trying to break 3 hours supposedly, although, if he's like me, maybe he has an easy public goal and a challenging private goal. Incidentally, my goal for San Antonio is to finish in ten and a half hours. My old buddy Dean Karnazes, finishing up his 50 marathons in 50 days. I would like to see how fast he can run it after all this. Can he beat Lance? (I think he can)
I wish I was there. I was there last year, injured. Perhaps someday, I'll make a triumphant return to NY, and I'll win it.
Listening to: Nirvana - Stay Away (?)
btw, Pay up!

Hope to see you in SA. I'm running the Half.
you were fast at the nycm last year, and being this was a half marathon, I guess that makes you halfast!hehe great job!!!!!!!! Dad
Looks like Lance beat Dean by about 1 minute. Pretty dang close! Was that Dean's fastest of the 50? Seemed like it was...
I think that was his fastest of the 50.
I was cheering for Dean to kick Lance's butt. Oh well, it was close!
Dang, am I a geek if I profusely laugh at the Pac-Man chart?
