36 miles on my feet this week. Running like Frankenstein after squats.

What race are you training for Cheesy? Keep up the good work!

Thanks - and nice job to you on Leadville!

I am training for the Disney marathon in January. I am going to follow this program: http://www.runnersworld.com/race-training/less-more-marathon-plan?page=single and have about a month before I need to get on that schedule. But I'm doing the first few weeks of the training now just see how I respond to doing more speed work and less overall mileage compared to a more traditional plan like Hal Higdon. I did Hal Higdon two years ago for my first marathon and running on three consecutive days every week doesn't agree with my knees. Things just fell apart that last six weeks and I nursed a hamstring injury. We will see how this one works out for me.

I got the Petzl Tikka RXP based on the recommendation on here and it does work very well. The only problem I had and this was probably me not aiming it right was while running behind someone on a dusty trail I could not see anything because it was reflecting off the kicked up dirt. I had to fall back some just so I could see. Later in the race when I was alone though it worked great.

That will be a problem with pretty much any headlamp. It's probably safer that you're moving a bit back from the guy in front of you anyways.

Some guys run both a waistlamp and headlamp. They claim it's the equivalent of running foglights.

I'll mostly be watching Rory though.
