I just didn't have it in my legs that day. Despite going 20 minutes slower than last year in the 50km, I was still happy.

If I had known I wouldn't do the 100km at RA, maybe I would have kept it. But I have no regrets - rather someone who really wants the entry use it than my just walking it (and possibly tiring out my legs too close to the Keys). I do plan on volunteering though, so I'll see you there!Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01054828169827277709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757161296282291233.post-66269921176055997432008-04-21T14:38:00.000-07:002008-04-21T14:38:00.000-07:00Hey Alan,Great meeting you on Saturday - you look ...Hey Alan,<BR/>Great meeting you on Saturday - you look fit - hang in there and hope you work out your issues with your footwear.

Will it be windy at the wide open Keys 100? Then you'll be more experienced than others :-)<BR/><BR/>Not sure if you have dropped from Miwok 100K, but how about doing it gently without pressure just beat the cutoff so as to avoid any injuries, shorten the recovery, and complete another solid training run? My thought is it will be fun and it could be a good final check for the Keys 100.<BR/><BR/>Good luck in Keys 100 training and see you in Miwok (helping or running)!<BR/><BR/>ChihpingAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08698690835903989710noreply@blogger.com
