      So 6 minutes off a PR and 11 off a sub-2:00 on what was essentially a training run. When do we start dreaming of whacking one or both? Or will that take a backseat to your marathon exploits?

       

      I don't like racing HMs (or training for that) so it will happen by accident during marathon training.  And I run most with hubby so I have few and far chances.  Montreal might be one where I try, we will see.

          I can dig it, we all have our thing. Nice job and good luck in Paris!

            Nice race, Docket!  Would have been cool to see what you'd have done if this were a true race.  Love that medal.

             

            FYI, 48 degrees for a HM is singlet weather.

                I love that thing. If they made a male version I would be all about it.

                  Great job! I love the medal. Good luck in Paris! Big grin

                    Congratulations on a well run race!  I'm so glad you're having cooler weather and it's helping your asthma.  I was very impressed by your splits and the fact that the pace came easy for you.  Such a good sign. Smile

                     

                    (I like the sharmer.  It's a little fancier than a set of arm warmers but serves the same function.  I might have to get one...)

                      If you decide, let me know.  I'll get you the brand name.

                        Nice job, congrats! I'm sure there will be no KK or MtD to be found in Paris. You'll have to go with the French equivalent - a wheel of brie and bottle of Bordeaux. You might have to take a mid-race nap.

                          Damaris, I googled and googled to find you a KK Donuts location in Paris, but all I could find was a franchise in Paris, Illinois... Maybe I should look under "Beignets Cremeux et Croustillants". For some reason, translated, it sounds really kinky...

                                Maybe the weather will be similar in Paris and you'll be able to run as well.  Very nice pics, can't wait to hear if patisserie yums work as well as krispy kreme (or better!)
