easy does it

i volunteered on sunday the 24th at the InStep Icebreaker Indoor Marathon and didn’t fit in a run for the day. i got to work the race registration table, handing out the timing chips. during the race i was asked to stand near the finish line and share the lap counts with anyone who needed it. i simply held a clipboard with a note scribbled on it that said “Ask me for your Lap #” but there weren’t many takers. honestly, the projection screen did a pretty good job of sharing where each person was as they went by since their name, laps completed and lap time was displayed. regardless, it was very cool to have a ringside seat to watch the runners roll through nearly 96 laps on the track.

the rest of the week shaped up to be…

1/25 – off (right achilles sore from too many left turns)
1/26 – 5 miles (easy)
1/27 – 5 miles (easy)
1/28 – off (low single digits and windy in the wee morning hours)
1/29 – 7 miles (back at the pettit center in the evening, -2 degrees outside in the wee morning hours)
1/30 – 7 miles (afternoon run, east on the glacial drumlin)

MTD/YTD – 152 miles
Odometer – 29,660 miles
