I didn't get a lot of sleep the last three nights.  Mark and I underestimated how long it would take to help David with his first Pinewood Derby car.  

With that said, another group effort was needed to get me through a long run.  Craig did all the preschool driving so Aubree and I could run.  We ran 16 miles together-(Kirkway loop twice).  Aubree had to go to work and Craig watched the kids so I could finish 6 more miles (Franklin loop).   

Pace average 9:21  

This was the  first run with GU and jelly beans.  I tried the Powerbar chomps too.  Didn't like them for long runs.  I'm trying to figure out my nutrition for the marathon.  Here is my plan.

Prerace- oatmeal, banana, 4 Advil

mile 6- 1/2 Gu, 1/2 Jelly Beans

mile 10- 1/2 Gu, gum

mile 14-  Jelly Beans

mile 18- 1/2 Gu, 1/2 Jelly Beans

mile 21- 1/2 Gu, gum

mile 23- Jelly Beans

That's 500 calories.  Anyone know when you take the salt tablets?
