Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
0.00	9.00	9.00

I'll say they were all fast today because of the winds and the uphill parts. I did the 1st mile at 7:29, then 7:31, 7:37, 7:49, 7:46, 7:29, 7:30, 7:26, and 7:18. I had to really push on some of these miles. I was a little sore and winded from my run on Sat. on the course.

I'll be on the bike tomorrow. My legs need the rest. I'll go 20 on the bike. Wed. I'm planning on running 10 miles at marathon pace.

Brooks Adrenaline GTS 6 Miles: 9.00

Great job on a great fast workout. Did I understand it right that you are joining Jeff's group at SG?? Will be great to have you if you are.

Mark...yep this is Chad. He has another guy that will join us as well. So we have Chadl, you, Mike Warren, Me, MarkE, and Chad's friend. Is DaceG the name of your friend Chad? As the time gets closer we really need to nail down a place to meet and a time so we can put this group together at the start. From the sounds of it, if we all put 3:15 or better on our registration we should all get access to the elite starting coral which would be nice. But if not we should probably fight our way as close to the front as possible. Less than three weeks to go, it's gettin exciting!

Yes, DaceG is the one I was referring to. We could meet near the water station at the start point. That area usually isn't too congested. The fires are hard to find someone at.

That's cool we just need to set a time and we are good to go. I'm thinking 10 minutes or so before the start will be good. I will be on an earlier bus so I will be all snuggled up next to a fire.

From chadl on Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 15:34:12 from 146.82.36.102

That should work. That's about the time I'm stripping off my parka and other clothing to throw it in the truck which is right there near the water station.

From Huans32 on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 13:59:30 from 138.64.2.76

I will probably on the very early bus too. So I can meet anywhere really. Prefer not having to worry to much about people that close to the start again. Since I will be hitting a PoP around then.

From chadl on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 14:05:17 from 146.82.36.102

Can you use the elite ones? The lines are really short if any lines at all.

From Huans32 on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 14:09:26 from 138.64.2.76

Yeah I think we will all be using those right?? If they have the 3:15 or so elite status again for those that put that. I didn't really know that till Jeff pointed it out to me last year. I am just saying 10 mins before we are probably hanging around the PoP or warming up. That area is so congested around the bag drop off and such for everyone tring to get that done and get to there spot to go at the gun.

From chadl on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 14:33:21 from 146.82.36.102

Assuming we can all get in there, we could just meet near the elite POP's.

From jeffc on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 15:11:16 from 167.207.128.101

I would say meeting by the elite pops is a great idea if we all get in there. That way we can do our own warm ups and clothing drop-offs and then meet up. I have a cell number for both chad and Huans and I will try to get one for Mike Warren and MarcE so we can all be in touch on Friday and see if we all end up in the elite corral.

From Huans32 on Fri, Sep 18, 2009 at 11:47:06 from 138.64.2.76

Very good idea Jeff. Right on.
