IMM.  One of my favorites, even though I don't perform well here.  George Corder, Dr. Pat Jenkins, Shawn Daugherty, Dave Smith, John York and Heather York and Joe Bell all joined me for the run.  Doc qualified for Boston.  John and Heather finished their first marathons.  Dave and George PRed.  Weather was great with a low of 42 degrees.  I'm not going into grave detail of my run.  I was not physically prepared for a marathon and knew that going into it.  That was evedent 18 miles in when things quit working as they should.  I had no choice but to push through it as runners do.  The next stop is Knoxville, TN on April 2nd.  I'm wanting to BQ again to go with Joe Bell, Dr. Jenkins and Dr. Golden in 2018

8pm run with Joe Bell.  He was attempting his first 100 miler in Vienna, IL.  He unfortunately boiled over before I got there.  We walked about 2 miles together before he threw in the towel.  I end up running up to the north end at Tunnel Hill.  28 degrees by the time I finished.  2 hours of sleep in the car before driving back home.

Race: Pilgrimage at the Park 5k (2.94 Miles) 00:23:18, Place overall: 19, Place in age division: 1

7:45 am start and 56 degrees.  This is a trail run at PC Park.  Hilly.  Dave Smith put together a Corporate Team again for us composed of Tony, Dave, Myself, John,  and Steve.  I find it interesting.  We all are 40+ years old and run multiple times a week together.  We all finished with a time of 23:xx to 24:30.  It was kind of the same story for the marathon in Indianapolis.  I guess if everyone trains the same, you get the same result.

 

Mile 1:  6 tenths are on pavement before hitting the trail.  You loose 149 feet and gain 96 feet of elevation through this mile.  Most of it is at a grade that is not comfortable running down or up.  Trail was in good shape even though there was a little rain this morning.  6:57.7 through 1 mile.

 

Mile 2:  All trail.  Lots of up and down.  I stayed with Jeff Golden through this mile.  80 ft up 63 ft down.  8:31.0

 

Mile 3:  A huge hill up.  Steep enough that I broke stride and walked.  131 ft up, 141 ft down. The last 4 tenths were on pavement so I was able to pick up the pace and pass a couple of people.  7:50.1 for 0.94 miles.

 

Last year I ran the same race under 22 minutes.  This is a good indicator that i have some work to do.  I would like to be around 3hours  for my marathon in February.
