My Marathon training has officially begun. It kicked off on Saturday morning with a 7 Mile run around Townlake. There must have been 150+ people there that morning, of which I guess my group consists of 25-30. I needed to get the whole thing over with as son as humanly possible, because the first UT game of the season had an early kick, and I had tailgating to do.
I ran with Mike (rubber legs) but lost him in the shuffle at the water stop, and continued on my own. My coach, self nicknamed ‘Panther’ (Phil Carmical) ran with me for about a mile, as I think his easy pace is closer to mine than others’, but he quickly realized he maybe should be polite and run back and run with his other pupils. That’s alright. I caught up to Patrick, and he and I finished off the remaining 4 miles together. Karma did great.
