Where you all at?
Sleep. That's all I got.
Isn't it like 5:30 am in your world? What are you doing up? Go back to bed!
16 miles after my second cup of coffee. Then I will prepare my hanging flower baskets for the summer. Then beer and burgers. All the while anxiously waiting to hear about our friends' races today. Go, guys, go!

I have been up since around 5:30 ish just kind of chillin' out. Getting ready to hit the asphalt for 4 miles here in a bit.
It's hard to sleep with a hangover, he probably needed a couple of aspirin to help with that bangin' headache. lol

That's my plan as well - when I finally wake up.
About to leave for church and Sunday school, then I'll get something like 6-8 miles in on the trail before coming home to clean house. It is a disaster. I will reward myself by baking salted caramel pretzel brownies this evening to share with friends tomorrow. And possibly by having an adult beverage, though I've already been through a bottle of wine by myself the last two days.
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.
Morning! SRD, although we might go out on a bike ride later.
Good luck to Phil! Go, Baboon, Go! (He has passed the 10K mark, according to Le Facebook).

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

Phil is about 30 seconds behind my friend, who is a sub-3:15 runner. There may be a BQ today for Phil!

Do you mean you are now qualified for NYCM?

I caught a little bit of the Ottawa marathon (thanks B for the link), and the guy was on pace for a Canadian record. I didn't catch it if he got it though.
Good luck racers! I'll just be doing yard work today.

Yemane Tseguay won in 2:06:53 or 54, a new course record and fastest time run on Canadian soil. Eric Gillis is the new Canadian marathon champion, with Vancouver runner Rob Watson in 2nd. 3 guys under 2:10.
Now sleep.
Excellent, B-Plus! It's not the easiest of courses and it is warm in that area this morning. Well done, Ottawa!
Phil has an overall pace of 7:42 at the 10 mile mark, so a tad faster than his goal. That is excellent. Youssef has a 7:08 pace. The guy is getting older, but continuously faster.
