worked this AM, got home, had some lunch then went for a nice hike with the family. Temps pushing 70 - not bad for November...

Event: Stone Cat 50M (and marathon)
 

Gorgeous day to run the Stonecat 50 with Mark and Bruce. Felt really good and having a fun time but had to visit the woods on numerous occasions. The latter two excursions between miles 20 & 25 however had me crapping blood, so I decided to play it safe and just do the bonus 1.2 mile loop around the school and call it a day with a marathon. Very nice of the race folks to award me a 26.2 finishers jacket since I had to give up my quest for the red 50 mile jacket. Oh well, these things happen...

Ran with Charlie Leonard from CNYO on a couple occassions - mostly because I would be running ahead, then he'd pass me while I was occupied in the woods and I'd catch him back up again. Chatted with Anne for quite a while around the finish since I had many hours to just hang out in the sun and eat/drink.

Mark set a PR finishing the 50 in 7:57 and Bruce rolled in exactly an hour later at 8:57. Would have been nice to go the distance myself, but today was not the day.

short afternoon ride out to lake and back. Clean bill of health from the cardiologist this morning...
