Windy MPW

A really nice week with some solid workouts gradually devolved into windy and rainy at the end. Boooo. I went to Icahn Stadium on Saturday to run the NYC Qualifying Challenge - didn't miss my race this time (probably solely due to Chris bringing it up every other workout this year - I owe him thanks) but it wasn't exactly a time to write home about. It's not a huge deal in the big scheme of things; I just would have liked to have a better idea of where I am currently at race-wise, as well as a confidence boost going into our 'home meets.'

After the meet I drove down to Millstone, NJ and watched Arnold Schwarzenegger cover himself in mud. What a quality film.
