11/1 - spaniel - Monumental Marathon, Indianapolis, IN - 2:32
Training has fallen off the tracks for the past month, but I will stick with the original goal regardless.

11/23 - WhoDatRunner - Monkey, Nashville, TN - Survive
My first marathon, so no time goal, no pressure. Just finish without blowing up.
Rule number one of a gunfight, bring a gun. Rule number two of a gunfight, bring friends with guns.
Its been so long since I ran a race (my recent Half does not count, it was a hike up a mountain), it's good to start posting in a racing thread.

In case anyone is curious what the weather might be like in Indy in about a week or so.
Let the screwing with spaniel's brain begin....pretty much the exact weather when I cracked 2:30 the first time in Chicago...but I am too fat for that now.
but I am too fat for that now.
And old. Don't forget old.
Where would I be without such helpful friends... FFS, hard to believe that was 12 years ago.

In an effort to really screw up my marathon training I've decided to run a half this weekend.
11/1 - WhoDatRunner - Monumental Half Marathon, Indianapolis, IN - <1:54:38(PR)
And this.
Ntown Kevin, 11/1, 5k, Fairway 5k, Ridgefield, CT, <18
Foot seems to be getting better, and I really want to run what looks like a neat "xc" route on a golf course. Will see how much I've lost these past few weeks...
Come all you no-hopers, you jokers and roguesWe're on the road to nowhere, let's find out where it goes
And
Ntown Kevin, 11/27, 5k, Newtown Turkey Trot, Newtown, CT, <17:30
Killer course, but brings out some fast kids.
For frick's sake. I'm really torn how to dress for that. At least the second half is mostly with the wind. I really hate racing with hat and gloves but see no option. This are going to get ugly fast for anyone who cramps up or crashes and has to walk.
