Barcelona 08?

Olympic trials, NYC marathon - all in one weekend. My husband gets a little tired of hearing about running and training and races I'd like to do in the future, but he did show a spark of interest with all the running on tv this past weekend. He gave me the go ahead to try for the NYC lottery for next year, and even suggested that I do the Barcelona Marathon in March. Where did Barcelona come from you may ask? Well, we've been to Barcelona before, and we do want to go back, and when I hear the word marathon I get that glossy look in my eyes........

So my running last week included 2 short runs of 2 miles each; sand dune repeats x 4 and a 14 miler with the group on Saturday. After the run on Saturday our group went into the ocean to cool off our legs - wooo! that was cold, but well worth the recovery. This morning I started my tempo work. 15 minutes at 8:40 pace (with a mile warm up and cool down). Only a baby step, but a step taken nonetheless :)
