Run in Feet, Dream in Miles.

Today I went to the Victory Run that the LA Roadrunners had suggested. Los Angeles Marathon ... conquered.

We met at the Totem Pole, famous as our good luck point in training when northbound. I quickly saw several Group 7 paceleaders and some of the veterans! Nice feeling. We all had our medals, well-deserved.

One of the coaches commented our new base level was ... 26.2 miles, to much applause.

After some introductions and congratulations, we set out on kind of a fun, do-it-yourself 4-Miler. It was a bit odd heading south to start!

I partnered up with another Group 7er and we had a leisurely run and enjoyed it. We also told of our marathon stories and happily talked about how we were so glad today's heat was not the same temperature as last Sunday!

On return, we had some muffins, pretzels, and Gatorade! I then signed up for the LA Running Club ... Run in Feet, Dream in Miles.
