Saturday morning was our final group recovery run (and only one of a handful I did with the group because of speed training). It was nice to see a bunch of my fellow pace group members again, and good to see Steve and Christa one last time pre-marathon (since they’ll be off in Ireland next weekend supporting the AIDS Marathoners running the Dublin Marathon). The run itself went well; most of the group was doing fine, although Julie turned around early and just ran 5 miles because of her still-healing toe (and Kris did the same because of his knee problems).

Now all I’ve got is a couple of maintenance runs ahead of me. All this rain better go away stat, though.

Oh, and as an added bonus, there was a mini raffle/prize giveaway and I ended up with a warm hat for running in the winter. Yay! Now that I have virtually no hair on top of my head, I could use one.
