21097.5 meters in Calgary · 4 July 08
Tomorrow Ellie and I pile into the car to drive 3 hours south. Not so we can go to the rodeo and take in the rest of The Stampede but rather so I can carbo-load and try to beat my Personal Best (1:55:36) in the Calgary Marathon.
I am doing the (not “just a”) Half-Marathon on Sunday – I am saving the big event for Quebec City where I will run the length of the St.Laurence… TWICE!
The Calgary Marathon is not quite as picturesque, though it does promise to be a rather flat and therefore “fast” course. We’ll see. I am trying not to think about it too much, though over-thinking things has never really been my strong suit. Heh… anyway, wish me speed and good hydration! WOO!
