Manchester Road Race 2015

First, hats off to volunteers for keeping unseeded runners out of the corrals and breaking into the course. I was able to run as fast as I could for the most part and I was able to come in at 37:15 1641 place overall 28/334 M6064. I felt strong and finished with a kick at 7:51/mi.
Since it was not quite 3 weeks since the RI Ultra I am thrilled with my time.
Rehoboth Marathon next weekend.

Tough Times

I was having a lot of difficulty getting loose after RI. Massage and all my rollers/tools
helped but receiving acupuncture again in conjunction with massage I think did it. Cc,
https://www.facebook.com/ceciliamajorlmt/?fref=ts my bodywork specialist has helped me focus on what is tight and suggested ways to attack it to loosen up different muscle sets. I now go to Northampton Community Acupuncture, http://www.nohocommunityacupuncture.com/ which has
helped me focus on overall health, sleep and tightness.

RI 6 Hour Ultra

I ran 12 laps in 5:41 for 32.4 miles. I had a shoe that was too tight by lap 8 and switched to the Conquest 2 for the last lap. I wish I had switched earlier.
2.7+ per lap was at times a bit boring but I did find lap 1-3 and 7-12 fun. Beautiful day great support and some amazing people running. I would definitely think of running again.

Awesome Weather!

Ran 7.1 miles today in 1:06. I could have run for hours, the weather was so beautiful.
Ordered Xtreme Bright, Pro Series X55 Headlamp from Amazon tonight 350 lumens.
Received a great massage from CC and I am focused on the glutes and my hips. I will
try using my feet/ankles more in RI.
