Recover well and good luck at Steamboat.matpedwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11697666109625969130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955599134695240379.post-60224778526918710422010-08-24T21:39:27.286-06:002010-08-24T21:39:27.286-06:00Jim - I always marvel at people that run without a...Jim - I always marvel at people that run without a watch. I need to do it more. It's funny because once I got over the initial shock of forgetting it, I didn't seem to mind. Usually I have a bunch of things I fiddle with during a run/race (watch, camera, etc). I didn't bring either of those, so I was much more focused during the run.<br /><br />Hopefully you're recovering quickly. My quads are the only thing that's still hurting right now. I'm feeling some pressure with Steamboat so close to get in two weeks of decent mileage before another taper. Although my 4 easy road miles this morning brought a dose of reality for what will probably now be a recovery week. <br /><br />I'm still kicking around the idea of Leadville next year, but if that falls off the radar, I'll surely be back to Pikes again. I imagine you'll be ready for a sub-5 PPM next year!Woodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11677463549607656479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955599134695240379.post-29403900115119504962010-08-24T16:47:33.435-06:002010-08-24T16:47:33.435-06:00Congrats, again, Woody! Nice job...without a watch...Congrats, again, Woody! Nice job...without a watch, no less. I'm thinking that there might be some benefit to running a race like Pikes sans watch. If we teach ourselves to run by feel, we might just get more attuned to how we...feel! That strategy probably will work best when one knows the course (a la Pikes). I'm ready to sign up again for the Marathon. Really enjoyed the round-trip this year.Jim P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06566980370651311505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6955599134695240379.post-15665376705242941312010-08-23T23:43:07.858-06:002010-08-23T23:43:07.858-06:00Great write up brutha!
