With everyone ok we then made our way to Sheila's parents house for the evening. The next morning my mother picked me up at there and we drove to my fathers house to make the hour trek to Mt Greylock. It was a really humid morning and I made sure I had my camel pack and started eating Hammergels early to make sure I was hyrdated. The race which is my 5th or 6th straight has become a fathers day tradition and with that being one of my favorite places I couldnt miss it. At the Glen I saw the same ole familar friendly faces and god are they all great!!!
Ok, I gotta shorten this I have a sick wife and a crying baby in the other room. Race was humid, I was having a great race until I lost my shoe strap on my merrills and ended up running the final 1 1/2 miles or so I think to the finish in my sock. This picture shows me edging out Scott Livingston. I was on pace to break my previous time of 2:04 and def. break 2 hours until that mishap happened. Whatver, makes for a good story. Besides that, for the amount of training I have done I flet awesome!!! I started out slow on the ascent and that was a wise choice I think it helped me on the descent. Brad Herder has posted some awesome pictures. Ok, Gotta go baby is crying!!!
Planning on Pisgah, Monroe, Groton and maybe Stone Cat(depends on how Pisgah goes)
