Rock and Roll Eve

More on marathon cheat Rob Stone, more on the 100 year old marathon runner, how quickly is water absorbed after you drink it?, Patrick Rizzo, Haile prepares for a half marathon this weekend, NYC's elite marathon field, Paula will continue on past London 2012, and Ritz prepares for the trials with a 5K tuneup.

Thursday, October 20th - ~4.5 miles. Got talked into running with Tim in Francis Park. Nice and slow. Pretty windy outside, but kept the pace pretty honest. Legs still a little tired. 41:27 overall.

Friday, October 21st - ~3.5 miles. Treadmill for 30 minutes. For some reason, just didn't want to run, and it was about the longest run ever in my mind. Pace felt ok, but just mentally not there. 8:34 pace, ugh.

Easy 20 minutes tomorrow, then the 1/2 on Sunday. Looking forward to getting this race over with, and hopefully a small break. I can feel a slight mental burnout right now...
