    alright 13.1 on my hills 13.12 mi 01:50 08:22 pace

    Took it easy, wanted some quiet time. Although it was fun racing some guy on my 12th mile. (I won.)

    good Lunchtime Hamsterwhizzle 4 mi 00:32 07:54 pace

    Feeling stronger and faster every day. This run felt pretty relaxing. So nice to feel like my old self and be able to look forward I Boston with excitement, not dread.

    Don't ever eat Fritos two minutes before your run, no matter how hungry you are. You're welcome.

    good Back Bay, 13.2 13.2 mi 01:43 07:47 pace

    Pushed it a little bit during some of the middle miles, which cost me later, but overall I felt pretty good.

    #dailymission After a race, I love a hamburger. They had a Carls (Hardees?) truck after OKC in 2010, which was awesome.

      I've done OKC twice, and I HATED the smell of the hamburgers when we passed them in the finish corral. I don't like to eat much after races though. And yeah, they were Carl's Jr.

      You know what's the worst, Libby? Carlsbad, at about mile 24, you run by a Mexican restaurant and it smells SO GOOD. Oh it's causing me pain just to think about the "I want to stop NOW" feeling. Smells SO GOOD!

      Jgal, unlike Libby, you are correct about the burgers.

    tired 6.5 on my hills 6.55 mi 00:53 08:04 pace

    Legs were a little stiff from yesterday. No big deal. Content with what I got out of myself based on my effort and my fatigue level.

      Well I'm going to pace Surf City next weekend so it'll be that, but I'm thinking about my 100th marathon. As of now, Boston is going to be my 99th so I want to add one onto the schedule and let that be #100. Otherwise, it might be Utah Valley, and who wants that? :P

    good 5 w 4 @ MP 5 mi 00:35 06:57 pace

    Included 4 at MP (6:44/mile). Felt good to push a little and not be such a baby. I'll get it done in Boston. I will, I will, I will.

      Hey Sam, 6.5 is terrific--and at a sub-9 pace, too. Great job! Fitness levels ebb and flow for everyone, even pros. Be gentle on yourself...and keep moving.
