Thursday Run ... Getting Closer

This morning was another run for the LA Roadrunners as we gear up for the Los Angeles Marathon.

The difference was this time it was a mere 20 minutes! It seems like a joke now after the 1 hour trots and the 20 Miler.

Still, I was a little concerned as I did not sleep much last night. I got home late due to being with my CCD class and then after cleaning up and eating dinner I think I made the mistake of downing a sports drink, which probably upped the energy rather than relax me.

I got out and about pretty easily. I consciously worked not to go out as fast as Tuesday, and not just because of photographer not being present.

I thought best not to really push the throttles right before the race.

I felt good though and like I was in cruise speed. I did a Pico Boulevard Shuttle ... up and back.

It ended a little above LT pace; but, allowing for traffic lights and need to rebuild pace ... I am happy. Compared to a few weeks ago, I am very happy!
