I am stuck in a bad blogging phase, allowing normal life to interfere with my blog writing. I am working on "getting over it".
A brief summary of the past week:
- I ran three times, including a half-marathon on Saturday evening with RB - she placed 3rd in her age group!
- I rode my bike to work four times (so far) in the last 8 work days , 21.4 kilometers (13+ miles) one way.
- I started my Crossfit workouts on Monday night, but am limiting this to twice a week the first week or two until my body getting used to it.
- After several weeks of rain I have been spending many hours in the garden trying to clean it up , so far the weeds are winning.
I am running a marathon on Sunday in the Black Forest, the first 25 km are flat or downhill, but the last 17 uphill! I needed 4:44 last year, I want to try to break my course record of 4:14 - it is supposed to be cool and rainy. It might work out!

have a great race! i don't doubt for a moment that you can hit 4:14.
