Should make for an interesting race... but I just checked, they launch the half at 6:30 am, hour before the main event.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the last couple of weeks of training. The hay is in the barn, the deposits have been made, enjoy the next couple of weeks and get ready to slay the Duluth dragon...<BR/><BR/>An entry from Ryan Hall's training log leading up to London.<BR/><BR/>"[My legs have been feeling good. I am ready to go. Now it is just a matter of getting to the line. I have never anticipated a race as much as the London marathon. I love the whole marathon experience.] I love that you pour yourself into something, beating your body until it can't take any more, and then you rest, and wait, and wait, until you are completely recharged and then there is just one final 26.2 mile trial ahead. I feel like I am about to slay the dragon that I have been preparing the last four months to fight. And then in the end you just get out there and take your swing."Matiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10929571728863292988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1823626532533196485.post-44192544891647965902007-05-20T14:36:00.000-04:002007-05-20T14:36:00.000-04:00Good stuff max!

I wonder about the french toast- got egg, but how much syrup- doesn't that mess with your sugar levels... whenever I have syrup it makes me very sleepy. <BR/><BR/>sorry I haven't been racing much- but 5/6 weeks have been in the 90s with high intensity- most days the runs are at 6-6:15. Today was 15 no mile slower than 6. Two more weeks in the 90s and then tappering begins. <BR/><BR/>Grandmas' seems like the last real shot for most americans- and this area is such a hot-bed that everyday I hear of another ace heading up. All the merrier!Havegoatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04336735869798968332noreply@blogger.com
