60K

Finished the 60K alongside my friend Moffat in 6:24 and change, a 10:20 pace. Feeling pain in the top of my right foot / ankle area, my friend Melissa says it is likely tendonitis. It is similar to the shin splints I felt last year, but kind of odd it is only in the right leg.

Thanks to Russ for running 18 with us, Bob Lenahan for running 25.2 or so, Dave for running the first 12 (or was it 16?). Thanks to KC for bringing the Entemann's cake & Melissa for bringing the cheesecake, Lydia for the chocolate chip cookies and Ava for bringing the pizza. Thanks to Dave Wakeman, Kenny Hill, Kim Levandoski, Annie, Amy & Lisa Dold, Dave Handelman, Farrah Buchanan, Coach Pete, Stella Dellamora & Julie Dao for coming out to run and/or cheer us on.


Great job by Nathan (5:35), Tom (5:55?), Peter K (6:18), Eugene (6:48) and Alan (6:54)! The real results will take a couple of days to be posted since there were no chips involved.

The only bad thing is we didn't get trophies as the NYRR promised us on their website, they gave us ribbons instead. Everybody complained so hopefully they'll rectify the problem.
