AM - 14 miles. Did a workout at Sugarhouse Park on the inner road loop: 4 x 2 miles - 10:38, 10:23, 10:22, 10:20. Was shooting for marathon pace, but ended up averaging a few ticks faster. Did about a half-mile jog b/w reps. 

I found out this morning that I received a complimentary entry to the Philadelphia Marathon this November, so that's good. Their "elite" program get me access to a nice little warmup area, private bathrooms, etc.

PM - 8 miles on the BST, from HCI heading north. Took it super easy (~8:20 pace) and just enjoyed it. Nice change of pace for my legs.

That's the anthem of my life!

Nice splits on those hills.

Private bathrooms are the best part of recieving an elite entry. If you're still doing this stuff when you're 40, you will discover that you can get "elite" entries and still be relatively slow. Like me.

Yeah it should be a great opportunity for me. I'm glad that I won't have to worry about those pre-race logistics. Philly isn't as fast as Chicago, but an extra month to prepare, plus these kinds of perks, should help my chances.

The breakfast run on Thursday sounds great, unfortunately I can't be into work too late.

Congrats on the entry! Cool stuff and you deserve it.
