Ran easy with Mike and Bruce (hope you get feeling better Bull!). Did an out and back course. Felt good, legs were a little fatigued to start. Lets get through another week!

Got some new shorts on saturday from the running store to wear for the marathon. Tried them today to make sure they felt good. Loved them.

Nice job! What kind of shorts did you get? Do they have lots of pockets?

I got some navy blue mizuno (I cant remember the style name) they have a big pocket on the side and then a key pocket in front. So I will be able to fit more stuff in for the marathon, but I wont have to carry my gu, I am going to tape them onto my water bottles I put out. I really wanted them because they are navy and match my singlet better (hehe a little vain there:) and they fit much better than my black ones I have.

How come you put water out during the marathon? Just curious. I guess that is what the Olympians do. They had special bottles. I know it gets congested at the dang water stops. At SL Marathon this year I skipped the first 2 stops and just carried a bottle and dropped it around mile 3. It was nice to not be in the mix of things at those first 2 stops.
