I went to work Monday but felt pretty bad by mid-day and then had to take Tue and Wed off from work. Later today I started feeling better and even went to the gym and put in a couple of hours. All I care for right now is to be healthy and to break 1:30 and I will be happy.<BR/><BR/>See you at the race.<BR/>CharlieCharliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08194398459256916637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362552092923025055.post-74638627701503188162008-01-30T07:51:00.000-05:002008-01-30T07:51:00.000-05:00Me again Charlie,I'm going to stick my neck out an...Me again Charlie,<BR/><BR/>I'm going to stick my neck out and predict a finish time of 1:27:59 for you. With the right pacing, you should smash the 1:30 barrier :)<BR/><BR/>Good luck!<BR/><BR/>--Stevestevespeirshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17200786162464085289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362552092923025055.post-63810577331320140812008-01-30T07:47:00.000-05:002008-01-30T07:47:00.000-05:00Wow!

They wait until we finish--generally after they kicked past me in the last 100yds. Glad you kicked yours to the curb. <BR/>Sorry about the cold. I hope you kick so you can hit sub 1:30 this weekend.<BR/>Good luck!Nathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250132017455417022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5362552092923025055.post-19497980975149392712008-01-29T20:57:00.000-05:002008-01-29T20:57:00.000-05:00Hi Charlie,Just wanted to let you know I've upload...Hi Charlie,<BR/><BR/>Just wanted to let you know I've uploaded a new map and directions for the East Beach Half Marathon on Saturday:<BR/><BR/>http://norfolkhalfmarathon.kalerunning.com/event_info.html<BR/><BR/>See you on the weekend!

Still a few weeks of training to go before that one though.<BR/><BR/>Have a good week and I'll see you at East Beach next weekend!<BR/><BR/>--Stevestevespeirshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17200786162464085289noreply@blogger.com
