    So I'm now exactly 13.1 miles from the finish line. How convenient!

      Good job!

      Speed my steps along your path, according to your will.

        Yes, good job!  That is pretty funny...  13.1....   :-)

          Good Job ... I was hoping to catch you as slowly been gaining ground.   But not sure I have a 70 mile run in me this weekend.

           

          There is always the race to 1500!

            Bullseye! Huntsville Half Marathon, 1:52:58 (unofficial watch time) puts me at exactly 1367. Heck, I might even make 1500 if I don't have a major problem! I do have a persistent pain in my right shin, but so far it's not a show-stopper, and hopefully I can keep it under control.

              Sweeeeeet!  Great pace on that half!

               

              When is the last time you gave that shin a break?

                 I hear ya. It was last Fall/Winter and took a long time to get rid of the problem. I'm taking it day-to-day, still hoping to run Rocket City in a month. Maybe I'll hit the trails, to see if that helps. And it's more fun.

                    Good Job ... Now only 92 more Miles to catch that 1500 Bunny! 

                     

                    Calculating after my Marathon saturday I should only need togimp through 45 - 50 miles last 2.5 weeks of year.
