Okay, forget what I said about not wearing extra clothes to race in. It's now supposed to be highs of 32 with lots of wind for Saturday. Even crazy runners from Maine put on extra clothing once in a while. Have I mentioned that most of my running (currently 62.22% of the year) is on a treadmill? I'm used to finishing in a pool of sweat even on the coldest of days, since I'm indoors. This running outdoors with wind is going to be a trip down memory lane.
My marathon PR is from the 1997 Ocean State Marathon. It was the final race of the Grand Prix series and I needed that jacket. It was in the 40s, windy and raining. I was fine for about 20 miles, but crashed hard and barely held my miles under 10 minutes at the end. Pulled out a 3:19:36.
If your racing/running on Saturday, good luck and stay warm.
