A nice and easy recovery run.  A bit of difficulty keeping it slow enough on the uphills to keep my HR down, especially with the windy/gusty conditions, but all in all a nice and easy effort.

Followed up with some plyometric drills and some lunges.

Dale --

Welcome to the blog, I just noticed the 'WA' next to your name. My count says there are four of us here now. I'm in Bremerton, but judging by your race calendar I'd imagine we'll run into each other somewhere in the state in the next few months. I'll be at the Seattle Marathon encouraging others, if you know your # I'll look for you.

Thanks. There's at least a few of us on the board, and I think a lurker or 2 who haven't joined yet. I'm sure we'll wind up running (pun absolutely intended) across one another once the race season starts back up next year. I'm going to take a bit of a break after the SM, then get back into some good base training.

I don't have a bib # yet....I'm guessing probably at packet pickup, but if I can remind myself, I'll post it. I'm going to try to link up with Aaron on the 25th since we seem to have similar time goals.

Cool. I'm planning to jump in the race around mile 19 to run with Aaron a bit, so I'll see you there.

Excellent. You'll either see a well oiled machine or a red rider wagon with 3 wheels missing grinding out the final miles :) Since I've already imitated option #2, I'm really hoping for option #1 this time around!

According to the website, my bib # will be 1229.
