hmmm

I read an interesting blog today and I have to agree...

the "half Marathon" should be referred to as a "Pikermi"...

From the article: "around the 13-mile mark (21 kms), right smack dab in the middle of the original Marathon route is the town of Pikermi."

It just sounds a little more positive than "half"!!! :o)

I missed my run yesterday and will miss today's run as well ... still recovering from Sunday's 8K. Monday and Tuesday my right hip and knee were quite sore. Today, my shins are still giving me allot of grief. Been stretching things out and icing. We've got a clinic run Thursday night (4K) ... so I am hoping to be able to complete that without too much pain/discomfort.

I have to build a better base ... I'll be able to do the Pikermi and Tely 10 ... it's just going to take me longer than most everyone else! I'd rather be slow than injured!

Happy Running :o)
