March 31st

(Vanessa) Saturday morning I decided to drive out to California to take a look at the laguna course. I ran on Huntington beach. It was windy but an overall a nice little trip. I'll be glad to be running somewhere other than Vegas. A little concerned with how many people will be on this small path with us.

(Nick) Met up for a group run with the Red Rock running company this morning at 6:30. It was a very hard run, they had a very quick pace, faster than my last marathon pace. I over dressed in pants and long sleeves, my shoes kept coming untied. Just wasn't a great day for me. I did meet a fellow runner from Cali who I got to talk with and shared the same race time as me, we both felt pretty fatigued running with this group. He talked with me about his training and lots of great food ideas. Running with this group is really going to make me a better runner and I can't wait to get back out there this Saturday. I did however develop diarrhea and horrible stomach cramps after the run. Hopefully wont repeat that again.
