David Jones - 02/24 Long Run

Looks like it was a very productive weekend for Team Plumb Crazy. Way to go on the 10K races Richad, Don and John. It was a cold rainy day for a race but you all did great. I was very impressed with Don and John's run as I was there to witness the tough conditions and you guys looked strong at the end. Richard is becoming quite the race veteran. Where is this weekends race?

As with Robb I was able to get in one more long run before our race this Sunday. This week I tried a new 10 mile route and I didn't feel great about my run. Overall time was 1:26:45. Only about a minute off last weeks 10 mile time which was run on a very flat course. I was hurting on this weeks run. Legs felt very week and my toenails really hurt. Think I might lose a couple of nails. I will take it easy this week with a couple of 2 - 3 mile easy runs in preparation for Sundays big race. Hopefully it will not be too cold. Race starts at 7:00 in the morning.

As advertised in Don's blog, here are a couple of action shots form the "Run for the Son" race. Don put on a sprint at the end to edge John out by a couple of feet. Way to go Team Plumb Crazy!!!!!!

The one on the right is at the start. Below is at about 2 miles. Still have sve smiles on their faces.

Bottom pic is at the finish. Hurrying to break 60:00 minutes. Great race.
