7:15 am  Ash came with.  I wore shoes, cuz I'm sick of running out of the crocs.  It doesn't seem to be a problem with the brown ones, but the blue ones fit a little on the loose side.

If I run tomorrow, it'll be a shorty; I must taper for the 1/2 on Saturday.  I'm 5-7% concerned about being able to pace the 1:35.  It should be fine, it's just been a long time since I've toed a serious line.  Probably nobody will show up wanting to run that pace anyway.

That's exactly the pace I'd be gunning for if I were doing a half on Saturday. I'm with you in spirit even as I'm slugging through the likely muddy bog that is the Bighorn Mountains.

Which race you pacing?

Pacing 1:35 will be a piece of cake for you. That 5-7% is the healthy fear that shows you you're sane. Good luck!

Thanks russ and neasts. I'm pacing drop 13 in big cottonwood canyon, Christie. It should be fun...

have fun pacing. arm yourself with a few jokes in case people get tired/hostile on you.

here's one to start out: what do you get when you run in front of a car? tired. what do you get when you run behind a car? exhausted.

and that will motivate them...

Have fun pacing Kam!

So jeoulous your pacing Kam. That will be way fun. I think that after this marathon in the fall all my running from here on out should be focused on pacing:) Way funner.
