So maybe I won't come back to Chicago....... Damn, I'm building a house, so I'm going to have to come back!!!
Two wonderful runs in the last 24 hours out here in Arnold's Town. Last night was a brisk 12 miles at 730p here. Only impediment (other than my slow legs) were the stoplights along the way. Averaged 735s for the distance and had to slow myself down several times. I will keep a more "metered" approach tonight.
This morning I stepped out into a CHILLY 44 degree darkness for an 8 mile LT. Mid to high 6s with stoplights mixed in (would have been mid 6s without). I felt good throughout much except for a couple spots on the return where gusts of wind from the North hit me in the face.
So I've made up a bit of distance, and plan on a nice 8 mile RECOVERY run this evening.
One other item... for Ed.... the fancy schmancy hotels likely don't have good treadmills. In fact, the current hotel in Sacramento is anywhere but nice. Last evening, in the final mile (which would be closest to the hotel), I was quasi-propositioned by a hooker that looked somewhat like Elvira.... or maybe that was Pearman... it's tough to tell, especially with my "running vision" which is much like Ed's normal vision.
Here's what I must suffer through for the next two days.....

good weather will only SOFTEN you up....
I would love to be a marshmallow then.
If you love Sacramento why don't you guys all come (to Sacramento) Memorial Day weekend and do the WS training weekend with me! It's 3 days -- 70 miles of the course (so trail running). I don't want to be all by my lonesome.
More details Danni. This is a possibility, depending when you are doing it...
It's memorial day weekend. There are runs on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. You don't have to do all the runs necessarily. The price includes camping and meals. The info is here:
