A nice ride on the Trinity Trails along with all of Ft. Worth! It seems like everyone and their dog was out on this sunny day! Good for them, but it made for quite a few slow-downs and close calls with people not used to trail etiquette. It was nice to not have to deal w/ car traffic, but sometimes the pedestrians can be worse. I'll continue to ride this trail, but just not all the time.

Pretty windy heading south and it really took it's toll on me mentally. Plus, I'm not recovered yet from the race yesterday.

I'm taking tomorrow off!!

Benbrook Half Marathon - 4/20 in AG, and 31/222 OA. I missed getting a cool trophy by one spot, but the 3rd place guy beat me by a solid 6 mins.

I ran a little faster than what I was planning on, but I felt pretty good throughout, but there is no way I could hold 7:30s for 26 miles!

I was able to practice taking water on the fly and consuming gels at a faster pace and that worked out OK.

My time was about 1 min slower than my PR, but it felt somewhat easier than my last half, so I think that I've improved some.

However, this race did remind me how tough race-efforts are. The marathon will be very difficult and require great mental focus and toughness. I definitely want to work on my mental training the last few weeks!

Easy spin on trainer with few one leg drills mixed in.

I HATE THE TRAINER!
