      Running is stupid.

      I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

        Nice race, Strings.  Particularly given your injurious time-outs this year.

         

        Not that Trent is incorrect.

        “I used to be a runner. Uh-huh. Not a marathoner. A runner. Marathons are bullshit. They’re all hype. Some official picks a random day, and rain or cold, you’re out there pounding the pavement alongside 50,000 other dumbfucks. No. There’s some things it’s better to do all by yourself.” Augustus Hill, Oz

          Question: why (besides Boston) were you targeting 3:18?

            3:18 wouldn't have made Boston.  My standard is still 3:10:59.

             

            3:18 was 26.22 x 7:34/mile, a pace that I completely felt was reproducible for the marathon.  I held on to that number as long as I could, but my legs were pretty tired to start with.

              You will re-group and give Memphis hell. Good race.
                nice race and congrats on the PR.
