For the last couple of weeks, I have been running low miles, so I am only looking to a better race than last year. Thanks, you too!

I did NOT like the F3, mostly because of that warmer weather than we'd expected! (race organization itself seemed fine, in my recollection). Happy holidays!

I can't really find too many lowlights for my year. I could have picked my Chicago Marathon since I fully expected to and could have BQ'd but it was just not my day. But instead of crumpling in the heat, I pushed through and finished respectably.

I am looking forward to your redemption at F3 next month, too, even though your 2015 showing was still amazing as heck. It's great that you only listed 3 lowlights compared to 5 highlights in 2015!!! That says a lot!!!emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.com
