Yo.
I'm taking an unscheduled rest day so no running for me today.
On the work front I have an educational seminar slated to start at noon, which I might just blow off as I have no desire to sit and stare aimlessly at some boring powerpoint program for 3 hours. We'll see.
What about you?
It's 3 for 1 week with MarathonFoto. I'm hesitating to pull the trigger. $29.99 CDN (Maybe $24 USD) for 3 digital photos still seems like a lot.

First track day in a LOOONG time where I really didn't want to do a workout. Got it done though. Paired 800s - 200m recovery between reps, 400m between sets. 3:44/3:35; 3:34/3:33; 3:34/3:32
Ahoy there, maties! Our whirlwind trip through three states is done. 1050 miles, a quick stop for 13.1, and a funeral. Boy, did my own bed feel good last night!
Back at it today, there's a real 13.1 in a few weeks that I should try to be ready for. Hahaha, I crack me up!
Ya'll have a good day now, ya hear?
You're being smart, Rick. Healing the groin has priority.
Cy, come on... $10 a piece. Do t for your future grandchildren! Or just do it for us. We like to see pictures.
Lauren, great workout!
I'm doing a PleasantRidge tonight: 15 miles. I hope the kids won't suck all the energy out of me before I start on the first mile.
Have a nice day!

Good morning!
15 under a few stars. It wasn't as blah as yesterday, I actually feel pretty good.
Lily, I'm honored to be associated with your 15 miler.
LRB, rest it well. I hope it fixes you right up.
Cy, I'm cheap, but I'd pay that for decent pictures.
Lauren, that's a nice workout.
LB, my own bed is the only acceptable option.
Have a great day folks!

I prefer to buy the whole package (digital download) rather than individual pictures. And that's only if I really like the pictures. It's cheaper that way.

I did pay last year. Waited for 3 for 1 week and bought 3. I am possibly going to do that this year,a gain. Thing is I bought them last year, and never looked at them. I see my finisher's medals at the bottom of my drawer more often than I see those pics.
I'll ask the woman and the kids tonight what they think.
Rick, you could spend those 3 hours massaging, or have someone else massage you groin area. Maybe the powerpoint wouldn't be as boring.

MarathonFoto always offers this deal if you wait them out a little. This is the best deal you'll get out of them, so pull the trigger if you want pics. I did this for the New Jersey Marathon. I only wanted a couple of pics and held out until they sent this deal. $8 a photo isn't bad. I purchased the full package for Philly last year because there were something like 60 pics.

Morning! I have Pilates and 6 miles. Busy week at work, FFS.

10 miles done this morning, 54 degrees, 94% humidity and muggy but I'll take this over 80 degrees, 94% humidity any day.
I've got a massage scheduled this evening, feeling a little tight... especially my calves.

5k - 24:15 (7:49 min/mile pace)
10k - 51:47 (8:16 min/mile pace)
15k -1:18:09 (8:24 min/mile pace)
13.1 - 1:53:12 (8:39 min/mile pace)
26:2 - 4:14:55 (9:44 min/mile)
5+ with the group this morning. I'm calling it a tempo run for me, since even with walk breaks every mile it averaged under a 10 min/mile pace.
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.

Yep. My third year at the Montreal Marathon event, with MarathonFoto, so I know I won't get a better deal.
60 pics? There are less than 10 of me, year after year.
Hi dailies:
Rick - but, but, ... boring slideshow! how could you go wrong?
Cy - if they're good race pics... those are rare.
Lauren - good track workout
LB - busy trip
Lily - enjoy your 15
Ridge - stars, not clouds, always nice
D - have fun at pilates
Baboon - really. Who wants pics of New Jersey, anyway?
Free - humid in November works.
10ish is the plan today.
Well fudge-nuggets, I unknowingly reached 5,000 miles about 51.3 mile ago, or sometime early last week I was really looking forward to giving out a hoop and a holler over it damn it.... but I was caught up in reaching 200 miles for one whole month.
