That was a TOUGH course but at least we had perfect weather. Talk to you soon.<BR/><BR/>BedfordBedrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010070560918695032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446080505629636230.post-11478687848600076212007-10-01T08:17:00.000-05:002007-10-01T08:17:00.000-05:00Greg!Congrats on your great run at GEER!

I am curious to know how it compared to Odyssey (and of course how I would have fared in the cooler weather!). I ran a hard 20 miles out in White Hall that same day and was thrilled with how I felt...chalking it up to the cooler temps. Email me your comparisons to Odyssey when you get a chance. Great job! Rest up!Sophie Speidelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04898497608573807716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446080505629636230.post-2991188896614944792007-10-01T06:28:00.000-05:002007-10-01T06:28:00.000-05:00I think it is very wise to do some road running. ...I think it is very wise to do some road running. The JFK course is 2 miles of road to start, then 15 miles of rocky trail, then 26 miles on the towpath (which is like a dirt roaed, then finishes with 8+ more hilly miles on the road. So road running will get your legs used to the pounding as well as, get them used to the smooth consistent turnover you will need the last 34 miles of the race.<BR/><BR/>I hope to do 5-6 15 milers on the road or treadmill and one 26.2 miler on the road between now and Nov 17th. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>GregI am a runner.

How big of a deal is it if i do the longer runs either not on a trail or a combo of trail and paved road? any feedback would help.<BR/>thanks! your posts are inspiring indeed!afuntanillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478739274778184614noreply@blogger.com
