* If you’re looking for a fast 5k on Saturday, check out the race at Metro State. This is a new race, but I am guessing that they are using the same course that was used for the Metro State 5k, which was probably the flatest 5k course that I have done in Colorado. No idea on the comeptition though.
* Plan on running the Longmont Turkey Trot next Saturday. I’d love to PR, my current 10k PR was set in Longmont earlier this year with a 37:29. Hopefully my legs will have recovered by then, right now I’m still a bit sore.
* Lance still has a better PR than me in the marathon. About two minutes faster when he ran NYC a few years ago.
* I’m now wondering if I didn’t go out hard enough in the first half of the race? Wondering what my time would have been had I hit the half in 1:25 (minute faster). Funny how you can have a great race and still question your race.
* Great stuff in The Onion on Meb.
* It’s crazy how many people cheat in marathons. I’d like to know what percentage of cheaters, cheat to get into Boston?
