Ran the YMCA Turkey Trot this morning. It was a beautiful cool day. There were about 29,000 people running the Turkey Trot - an 8 mile run or a 3 mile run. Michele ran well and now wants to try a half marathon. I think she's going to sign up for the White Rock Lake half.

Tempo
Weather: 60, clear, no wind

Started out running 5x5' at LT, but felt kind of crappy and bonky. So, after 2 intervals, decided to just run tempo for the entire run. The bonky feeling went away and the run turned out to be OK.

The IMFL goals and other stuff have been up on my blog long enough.  Today I decided to update those goals with next year's goals.  These are tentative races and may change.  I also started working on training plans for these races.

Endurance
Weather: 60s, sunny, light wind, beautiful

This was my last long run before WRL Marathon. The pace is slow because I ran the first 8 miles with Michele. This was her last long run before the Turkey Trot on Thursday. I really never felt good or got into a groove. My legs were tight and tired. Oh well. Time to taper for WRL.
