back in the saddle again

Rock and Roll Marathon is coming back up again and I am running it. Usually runners try to improve on their times, always working on a PR or personal record. Not me. I am running in the same shoes I used last year and my feet hurt, shoes are worn out, and I have trained far less.
I have done one long run, 17.5 miles about a week ago, and there are 14 days until the race from today....I have run a total of 35 miles in preparation. Not ideal. But oddly I feel good about it. How bad could it be?
My split times for my long run (which is still 9 miles shy of the goal distance) are not good either....11.5 minute miles. Maybe I should just walk at that rate. Some good/old friends are joining me on race day and their is the unspoken understanding that it would be ok to just follow the split off for the half when that happens.....more time at the beer tent Alaina has said....

its gonna be a long road--need some direction...

in an attempt to follow up on my plans, I am going on a beginner version of the prep for a marathon, and today cant walk. There is numbness to the webspace to both my feet, no bowel or bladder disfunction, but I'm still monitoring my symptoms......

Shaka went with me for the first loop, and I went back out with the shuffle the second time. 1 hr 15 min for loop one, and it took me nearly 2 hours to walk back from where my body stranded me the second time. I fell asleep in the tub afterward.

future fantasies fullfilled....

Found this while looking for the next pipe-dream, would be more than ideal, to understand click.

Rock and Roll Marathon training

Against my better judgment, I have signed up for my first marathon, May 31st in San Diego. Sign up and join me and a few others. Use promo code SOCAL, and give away 26.2 miles of your life, gets you there and gets you going.
