I Phone entry

This is my first entry from my iPhone. I can tell you that 14 words into this and I am not digging it. Too small...that's what she said.

Anyway, just 5 days out from Dallas. I hate the taper. I am ready to get this thing over with. I am also ready to be done doing this blog entry from my phone.

Be right back...

...okay, I'm back and on the computer.  


I felt like an old man squinting at the tiny screen.  Back to the taper - I went to the gym tonight and ran for 28 minutes followed by Chinese at HyVee, followed by Pumpkin Creme cookies from Trader Joes, followed by updating my blog.  nerd


Two more days of work and time for a road trip.  Reno called today and said that he may sell out.  This wouldn't be the 4th time he bailed on a trip.  If no Reno, then Jake, Tag, and I will be cruising to Dallas as the 3 amigos...with fly boy Matt meeting us down there.


I am going to do a bit of work tonight and play some Angry Birds - if I can get the phone away from Mrs Brooks :) 


Later Dudes!

101 Posts - Dallas is coming

Welcome back - I am really just welcoming myself back to the world of blogging.  I was holding out for an epic 100th blog entry...turns out I already did my 100th entry.  This is my 101st entry.  Buzz kill.


Well runners, Dallas is less than a week away and there is nothing I can do to improve my fitness level now.  I'm pretty sure there are things I can do to mess it up though.  Any ideas?

I would really like to get my PR at Dallas.  I would really like everyone to get their PR in Dallas - they can.  Right now the weather looks good for a forecast 7 days out.  46 degrees in the morning, no rain, no wind. I hope the forecast holds up!


Marathon Route Elevation Chart

Preview


This is a new route. It looks pretty similar to past years.  The uphill start is good...should help to keep the pace under control.  Not really excited about miles 19.5 through 22.  If we can gut our way through that the last 4 miles looks like a nice downhill finish.


Dexter is on and I can't blog and track a serial killer at the same time.


Later dudes!
