Leavenworth 1/2 Marathon just days away

Hip Brother Tom

My first race since my partial knee replacement will take place this weekend.   It will be interesting.  Last week, I had a workout with my men’s group and tweaked my quad.  Then the next day I was coaching my XC kids, and while protecting my quad, I tweaked my hammy.  What’s next??????  All I know is Hip Brother Dave is coming all the way from Florida to run the Leavenworth marathon and I plan to meet him there.  I have laid low and stuck to the Zero Runner for the last few days.  It won’t be my fastest half marathon, but I am optimistic.  Stay tuned for pics!

      I’m looking forward to meeting up with you again and glad this time we will both be running. Hoping you recover before race day.

      Dave,
      I was out running with my XC kids today and managed to keep the hammy in check. I won’t be racing for time but I think I will be able to maintain 9s without it squawking at me. That means I will be done in 1:57 ish. Yikes. My motivation will be that I am running in Leavenworth; a quaint German themed town in Washington and it will be during Oktoberfest. There will be good company and a beverage at the end!
