Watching wendie run mothers day race

Good time last night at Everypace run. Lots of people showed up. Brooks was kid enough to provide bannas, pizza, and beer. I am still a bit sore from the Flying Pig going to take another day off. Will try to go for 8 or so tomorrow. Looking forward to cheer on Wendie at the mothers day race on Sunday. Good luck to everyone running the north face challenge or li greenbelt 50k.

Calf

Calf still is bothering me from Sunday. Taking another day off. Wish I could run in this beautiful weather. Looking forward to the everypace group run tomorrow and the first of the Brooks Summer Running Series.
Have been wearing the compression sox for the past couple days to help with the calf, kind of wish I wore them for the race on Sunday. Oh well, what can you do.

Flying pig marathon report

The flying pig marathon was wet, it was a great race and a good time had by all. At the beginning of the it was pouring rain with thunderstorms. Waited In Paul brown stadium for a bit before the start. The race was very crowded at the beginning with all of the half marathon, relay runners and marathoners. The rain wasn't so horrible, but the course with 3 bridges in the first 4 miles, and then the killer hills of Eden park is brutal. Lots of pounding with so much downhill running. Started feeling real good at mile 23 and pushed my pace, but then started cramping up around mile 25. Overall I have to be happy with my performance considering the rain and humidity and the hills.

The pig in the rain

Going to bed soon. The race looks like it will be wet. Thunderstorms are predicted for the morning which is not good. Hopefully they will hold off. But who knows, the weather is out of my control or any of our control. I am feeling good, I got my plan together and we will see what will happen. This is my first marathon since I started running the ultras. So hopefully I will finish strong and feel good. Need to watch up for the hills. The rest of the coaching seminar went good and looking forward to taking the test. I will tweet updates from the start line in the morning.

Good night.
