This past Saturday I ran the ASYMCA mud run in VA Beach. It was fun, and I got a bit muddy, but oh it should have been called a Sand Run! Most of the 8k course involved running on dry sand, which can quickly tire out anyone, but I got my best time ever of 51:05. 4th in my AG. If this were a standard road race, I would not be impressed with that time.
Here is a picture, for your enjoyment:-)
I skipped the track workout at W-L last night because of the fact that my stomach requires a bare minimum of two hours between eating something substantial and running. Biking and swimming are usually ok after half an hour or so, but not running. I didn't get home till 6pm yesterday and I was hungry. There was no way I could just not eat till 8:30pm! So in the interest of instant gratification, I chose food over a workout. Sigh.
I did go swimming this morning, and then did some aqua-jogging. Does that make up for a track workout? Am I the only one who dislikes evening track workouts?

You are not. I did a 5 x 1,200m set at Yorktown last night while my daughter tried out for a softball team on the next field. I do the intervals because I know it is helping my speed. But once this marathon is in the bag, I don't think I'll step on a track for quite a while.
