Pretty good run this morning.  It wasn't a big confidence booster but at the same time, I survived and my legs feel okay.  Going into my 3rd marathon, I'm trying a 2-week taper rather than 3-week like I've done in the past.  We'll see how I handle that....

First 7 miles were ran on North Phoenix Highway past Home Depot and back to get in some rolling hills/downhill.  Took some Gu and water and felt fine.  Next 8 were ran in the hills above East Medford, then back to the house for more Gu and water.  Last 6 were ran around the golf course/Foothill dr.  I ran in my Type A's and they felt good through 18, but after that not so much.  That puts me at a loss for what I should wear @ CIM....

Total Time was 2:28:45 for a 7:05/mile average.  Just glad to have finished and to be done for the week.

Type A (61)

Nice running. Which marathon are you running?

Thanks Tyler. I'm running the California International Marathon in Sacramento the first weekend in December.
