Change of Plans

Another last minute change/addition.

As some of you may already know via Twitter/Facebook, I decided to scrap my original plans to run the San Diego Rock and Roll Half Marathon on Sunday and instead opt for the Blue Canyon 50K up near Santa Barbara.

Why I thought it would behoove me more to run this race will be divulged at a later date. For now, let me say that there is some method to my madness. Some.

Speaking of madness, this run tomorrow promises to be hot (high temps 90+ degrees) and hilly (elevation gain 10,000+ feet according to a source).

Not going for time. Just time on my feet, tweaking my nutrition/hydration and some unplanned heat training.

Hope I survive.

Can't say I'm not a little bummed. Was hoping to run SD with you. At least til I had to break off for the marathon route.

I am curious as to your last minute decision because that other run sounds a lot harder. Enjoy the run!
