Away from the computer

I had such inspiration last weekend to post some offbeat news but it is fleeting.

I ran 15 on Sunday and 4x1600 yesterday. Both were older man slow.

Tomorrow I will crank out eight before work. I am treating this as a practice race week as far as sleep, food and mental approach. Why? Because I have my first of two 20 mile long runs on Saturday.

After the long run I hope to catch up with Richie who's coming to town to run Disney on Sunday. I have half a plan from an inside source on how to "follow" the race more closely than the support crew-unfriendly Disney race allows. We haven't seen each other since MCM in October 2006.

I hate it when I forget the clever blogging ideas I have while running. glad I'm not alone.

Good luck outfoxing the Disney folks!!!

Thanks for the well-wishes!

And Good Luck to you on your 20 miler.

I have three friends running on Sunday. Weather permitting, I was thinking about going out on Sunday morning to show some love, but I was wondering the best way to see them...

Older man slow won't be such a bad speed for the 20 miler, call it practice.

You make sure and tell Richie that he's neglected me lately.

I tried to do a track W.O. after my 14 this week and it was a no go. Got five in the day after though. I do remember WDWM in 2006 as being very chase-unfriendly although there were supporters out there. It seemed like spectators could go to one spot and that was it. I have nothing bad to say about the race Disney puts on though.
