Garmin Connect - Activity Details for manhattan half-glycernin 8 sucks

Just got back from Manhattan half marathon. Woke up too late. Didn't run 6 before hand like planned.  Was not feeling it today. And then at about mile 3 I had to take a shit. Had to hold it till mile 5.5 where the port-o lets were. It was a big one. After that I felt fine till the end, then ran home. Bad race, oh well. Got a lot miles in this week though. 47 mile week so overall it was not so bad.

Where they hell is everyone. Did not see a sole on the river, except a couple bike comuters and the lady with the cripled dog in the baby stroller.

Yesterdays run brought two surprising things. Great to go up north and see sights i usually don't see on my runs. It is confusing getting back to the river from Ft. Tyron and especially near the George Washington Bridge. I guess I could of gone farther north into inwood park. I guess I can do that next time.

Blood: I never get bloody nipples or bloody toe nails. That is until yesterday. I guess you even need body glide in the winter. I usually don't have chaffing issues when it is not humid so I didn't think about it. Oh, well what can one do about it.
Remember body glide on all my runs.

I am going to take this morning off, then I will go run with Susannah tonight.

Great long run today. Run up north on the hudson, went up to Ft. Tyron Park and the Cloisters. Great day. Weather a bit cold, but nice. Got lost a little trying to get back to the river in order to get back. Felt good the whole time. Longest run since the 60K, so I am feeling that I am back on track with my training for the 50K in LI in March.

So last month I put up my preliminary training plan. So here is what I have signed up for so far this year.

March 7th Camusset 50K Long Island
May 1st Flying Pig Marathon
July 3rd Finger Lakes 50 Miler.

It looks like I was the first person to sign up for the Finger Lakes 50 because on the blog I am the only one listed. That is crazy, or I was way to annal in getting the entry in early.

First week of the new year and things are good. Five days straight of running. Working hard to get everypace, my running coaching company off the ground. Lead my first group run at the Running Company. Happy it went well. Tried out the new Glycerin 8 on my run today. Great shoe, softer than last years. Felt a little different in the arch. Think it will be a good shoe. It has a nice ride to it.

Been working on my website a lot this week and going to a iweb trainin at the apple store later today.
