FOOTBAL SHMOOTBALL...lets find out where your priorities are!<br /><br /> My only problem is that the company holiday party is often on that Saturday night of the first week of Dec., so I may be getting very little sleep the night before if so!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06752798450146454511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-43736592652641482262011-05-09T13:38:20.368-07:002011-05-09T13:38:20.368-07:00I think the fact that you took it easy on the long...I think the fact that you took it easy on the long run this week that violated the 10% rule you'll be fine. If you were pushing it a ton on your runs I might be more concerned. Maybe just make sure to ice and stretch a little more this week to make sure something doesn't flare up. <br /><br />I actually signed up as well for CIM, it's going to be weird to do an actual downhill or flat course, almost every race I do is on some sort of crazy hill course, haha <br /><br />Only problem for me is that CIM is on Dec 4, and Stanford football might be in the PAC-12 championship game on Dec 3. So we shall see what happens, haha<br /><br />Good luck at Copenhagen, I've heard the city is gorgeous and there are bikes everywhere!Nellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613262056157769496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-60866396265390157492011-05-09T09:44:42.121-07:002011-05-09T09:44:42.121-07:00The 10% rule truly applies more so for newbie runn...The 10% rule truly applies more so for newbie runners, you will be fine!<br /><br />I've done CIM and it's a fantastic course (1999...a VERY long time ago).<br /><br />Enjoy the rest!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-35089313662649960492011-05-08T20:45:14.941-07:002011-05-08T20:45:14.941-07:00I've run CIM twice and it's a great marath...I've run CIM twice and it's a great marathon. Just note that it can be COLD and sometimes it stays cold. Best thing I ever did for this one was stick hand warmers in my running gloves.
