Wineglass Marathon

After a week of various family emergencies, household emergencies, and car problems managed to drag my self up to Corning, NY last Saturday.  

I was totally exhausted after the 6 hour drive, I skipped the meet and greet with Joan Benoit Samuelson and instead went to the hotel to crash. 

After all of the the heart rate/ dizziness issues of August and September I was not even sure if I could run...at all. 

Race morning I awoke at 4 to shower and check out. By 5:30 I was on the bus for a ride out to Bath, where the race started.

It was a low key crowd, low key event, and a nice even run. Even though I knew it was not going to be a spectacular PR run, I still kept a decent effort through the later miles. 4:09 chip.

4 days later I started a little 4-5 day training block. Hoping to recover and taper and maintain fitness at the same time. Tall order! Hopefully my training peaks data will assist in guiding my workouts over the next few days.
