Not me. Don't get excited.
Chris W, a long time client at CFWC, ran his 2nd marathon of the year and 4th overall today. Tam, Shan and I made the trip into the city with the boys (4, like herding gerbils), and played the requisite game of planes, trains, and automobiles to catch a glimpse of him at both the 20-mile mark and the finish line. It should be noted that Chris has been dealing with a nagging strain to his heel chord and has only run once in about a month. He also eschews traditional endurance training in favor of CF supplemented by CrossFit Endurance a few days per week (rowing, to favor the injury). He finished in 4:17 (A PR I believe, maybe Chris will chime in) and looked and felt great after the race. Afterward, a number of CFWC friends gathered to celebrate Chris' achievement with a few adult beverages and some steaks the size of your flippin' head. Great day overall. Congrats Chris!
Chris will now turn his training attentions towards Ironman Coeur D'Alene held in June of next year, again relying on CFWC and CFE programming.
More later, looking forward to getting back on the training and diet wagon today.
