Wow, sounds like a lot of fun & the botanical gardens must’ve been a great backdrop!

Hey Kittzy: Yes, the Summer Series is a lot of fun – a 4 mile countdown race, where you pick your start time and try to finish when the clock reached 00:00, the 3 x 2k random relay which we did last night and next week is a predict-your-time 4 miler where you’re not allowed to wear a watch, heart rate monitor or other timing device. All good fun…

Michelle: Good luck with your half-marathon training. Nutrition is a tough subject to cover in a small comments box, but you’d probably benefit from checking the great Runner’s World Performance Nutrition for Runners book.

Thanks for the comments,

–Steve

I do love the freedom I have to be able to look for fun races!…There are just too many cool places to run…stay where you are and just travel to the fun places…(All around)

I am preparing for my first Half Marathon that is in Chicago on August 10th. I have been using the book “Run Less, Run Faster” as a guide to how to train. One thing I know that I am really neglecting is how I eat. Any suggestions of what I should be eating? Not only daily, but before and after I run? Thanks!
