...and I'm just gonna stop diggin'.
I understand, it will be nice to see some new faces , at least every 3.1 miles or so. I just wonder how many times the top finisher will lap me. My goal is to not get lapped on my first lap.
Actually, my initial goal is to do 11 laps (or 34.1 miles in 8 hours compared to my Farmdale pace of 32 miles in 8 hours and 10 minutes). This goal may change either way depending on my training from here on out.
The relay concept sounds interesting, but it just seems like cheating to me.
