Good Friday + 10 Miler Prep


Alright, ok...an improvement in the logo arena (remember the last one?)


The Papa John's Ten Miler, the third leg of the Louisville Triple Crown of Running, kicks off early tomorrow. This particular triple crown is for us humans.


This is my second ten miler and my last race before the Mini-Marathon in two weeks!


My goals for this race are:
- Power through the hills in the park with confidence!
- Don't let the final stretch wear me down!


The hills on this course have quite a reputation in the area, but they aren't any worse than the ones I encounter on my long runs out in the sticks. I'll use my "West Virginia" mantra to get me through!


Tonight comes my favorite part of race prep: pre-race meals.


I'm feeling a pizza and lots of Easter candy.


Have a GREAT Good Friday err'body!

  4. YES! Definitely love pizza and candy- however- go easy on toppings that are too spicy like sausage, pepperoni or garlic and onions and too much sauce. All the spicy saucy ness can totally reak havok.

    I have always wanted to say reak havok but never had the opportunity. I don't even think I spelled it correct. who cares.


    KICK ASS!
