AM: 9.6 miles.  Felt awful.  Not sure about the PM run.  I'm in a weird spot eleven days out of my next set of races (Gasparilla).  I feel like a full mileage week is ideal, but I know the literature kind of says it is meaningless.  The double at Gasparilla is the real deal, and I need to be ready to race.  No times, just race.  I wonder if the triple-race- weekend a week ago will help my fitness at all.  I hope it does.  Three weeks is pretty close to being far enough out to show progression.  I entered this morning expecting to run a workout, but I felt sore in a lot of places.  Maybe I'll try again this afternoon, but my guess is I'll bail after the warmup with John.

I really want Gasparilla to be something special.

PM: 6.1 miles

Just one question -

Aaaargh you ready to run!?

just looked up the gasparilla results. i’m sure it wasn’t the race you were hoping for, but nice job nonetheless. running 2 nearly identical half-mary times in the same month surely means more than what the minutes and seconds say!
