I stopped for Andrew - Not my Fault...

Weight 210, Distance 8.1, time 54 min, Pace 6:40, Avg HR 171

Hmmmm Heart rate was higher, I guess I need to train more.

Andrew, my oldest son, who is in the running for "Pirate of the Year" on PiratesRus.com (just kidding) needed to go to get his new contact lens. I had ridden my bike to the track and so he picked me up and arrived at 8K so I stopped. Good move John, blame it on your kid!

Everything was working fine and I could have kept running but we had to go.

We went to see Paul Glazier at Glazier Optical. Paul suggested that I try contacts for the marathon. He says they are bifocal now and he gave me a tryout pair. I'll give them a try on Sunday for the long run.

This AM I went to the Y and did the bike class, squats, some core and stretches. I was sweating buckets. I guess tomorrow I better take extra water and stash it en route.
