Good weather all week.  Celebrated Kari's birthday and our 4th anniversary this week.  Also did a double marathon on Sunday - did my own marathon @ 0300 (3:31:44) then ran the Marine Corps Marathon @ 0755 (3:46:39).  It was fun and exciting, and also my first marathon since Dec 2012.  I ran the first half with my friend Brandon (from PB&J 50k race recount) and did the second half solo.  I'll post a short race recount soon (mostly pictures).

Rest week.  Didn't do much.  Hips still a bit sore from 50 miles on roads the previous weekend.  Did a lot of weightlifting and biking though, which allowed me to continue eating cookies and brownies at will.  Next Saturday is the Rosaryville Veteran's Day 50k, and also my wife's due date, so it'll be interesting to see how the logistics pan out. 

Other news -- my friend Tristin has recovered from his run-in with an automobile a few weeks back, he did 3.5 miles yesterday!
