QOC. Local meet at Great Falls MD. 1pm. Hot, sunny and I was tired from yesterday. Mostly clean except for 11 min lost on 4th control. Started with a slow pace but picked it up some when Tom Strat passed me at 6. Picked it up a lot on the road run to 12 when the opportunity came to run down Pat Z. Found out afterwards she had run 1/2 mile more than I had yesterday as well as quite a bit faster.

Blue - Splits

DCRRC-SLR 7:10am. IwoJima , Cand O canal to mile 10 and back. Time does not include three 5 minute bathroom breaks. I think this may be my longest training run ever.
Not looking good for the Marine Marathon in less than 2 months. While only a training run; I was still a lot slower on the 2nd half than I wanted. Especially when I see that Pat Zerfas is doing 18+ miles at 8 minute pace.

QOC. Bike-O in Columbia MD. 3pm. Drank, ate, showered, changed, drank, packed dance clothes and bike then went to running store to get a free packet of Ultima (drink at Marine Marathon) and a new pair of running shoes. Then on to the bike-O. Got there late because shoe shopping had taken longer than expected. Only time to do the short course listed as 8 miles. My map has no scale so actual distance is unknown. Mostly rode at a relaxed pace. Great to be on the bike again, think I last rode last summer. I cannot ride and read the map at the same time so spent a lot of time stopping to check the map and made some errors when I did not stop to check. Course mostly on narrow ashpalt bike trails with lots of intersections. Think I might have done better on the long course which had more road options.

8-10:30pm. At Do-Pas-O in Lancaster with Iolanthe.

1030pm. Lee-Graham-50 route.

At B and B. 7:30-9:30pm.
Had planned to run later but it got late and I needed some sleep.

Beginner dance at Lincolnia. 7:30-9:30pm.

11pm. Lee Graham 50 route..

Not back from RIchmond until after 2am. Slept in all morning and was lazy all day.
