I finished. Analysis to come soon, but I think I'm happy with the way it went. I didn't quite run as much as I wanted, but it was still good and I wasn't last in my age group or overall. :)
Hey Mark, I'm one of your Monday Morning cohorts, and just finished reading all of your blogs.
Two things jumped right off the page at me. To paraphrase: Don't let a "number" get you down, and keep going toward the "big picture".
Recently I have had a "number" controlling me and have acutally gained weight. So, time to focus on the "big picture" and just keep on truckin'. I know I will get there, just as you know YOU will.
It is indeed something to remember to keep the times and such in perspective. At this point, I'm happy with the distances knowing that as the weight comes off and the training continues it will get better.
