Week Ending Jan 3

Mon - Off

Tues - 10.5 miles easy, no watch - Blean Woods.

Weds - 5 miles easy, no watch - Blean Woods.

Thurs - 6.5 miles easy, no watch - Blean Woods.

Fri - 13 miles in the slop around Bewl Reservoir with my brother.

Sat - Back to Colorado. Three movies on the plane: September Issue, Funny People, 500 Summers. Funny People was crap, the other two were decent.

Sun - 1.5 miles setting up T&H course (33 runners). 5.5 miles up Horsetooth (1,300').

Total: 42 miles (2,000').

Nice easy week. Probably easier than I would usually do two weeks before a goal race, but with just a two-week taper and lots going on last week, it felt about right. Legs have been feeling decent, if not great, so should be good to go with another week of rest.

Looks like there will be at least three runners in the field at Bandera who would probably expect to beat me, but I'm going in confident and ready to run for the win. More on the competition later in the week.
