Wilmington Fun!!!

What a day for the Mystic Runners!  Yesterday marked the annual Wilmington Half Marathon and a historic day for our great running club.  We had many members take home individuals awards but the big story of the day was the Mystics taking home the Overall Male Team Award.  Myself, Rob Mirable, and John Mulroy combined to be the three fastests males to cross the finish line.  I can't wait to show off the award this Wednesday night to all the Mystics.

On another running note, I am running well.  It is such a joy when this sport pays you back and right now I feel a renewed sense of optimism for this upcoming marathon cycle trainning.  This is my final week of my pre-marathon specific training and then it is 15 solid training weeks until Houston!  I am so excitted to get into the marathon specific training because of the solid base I have built up.  This training cycle will challenge me to a point that I have never gone before.  I will officially hit weeks of 90 miles.  Yes, 90 miles.  You can pratically round it up to 100.  To think that prior to by running career I had not logged 90 combined miles, makes this moment even more special.

Thanks for reading everyone and talk to you soon.
