My friend said he would pay me $25 for running a sub 1:10 through the half this weekend and my entire trip if I qualify.  Something tells me that $25 may not be enough to risk a complete blow up and/or hospitalization.  Expected payoff if I dare to run a sub 1:10 is $52.50.

Distance Time Probability Payoff Expected Payoff
Half sub 1:10 90% $25 $22.50
Full sub 2:19 3% $1,000 $30.00
        $52.50

Jumped the fence at Olympus High and tested out the new track and field turf.  Ran a mile in about 5:25, a quarter mile, then did a 100 yard dash on the squishy turf.  It's too bad I am too old to get to play on it.  Averaged 6:35 for the run.

Ran outside just in case today is the apocalypse.  If anyone wants a Baskin Robbins sign you can find one near Sugar House Park on 21st south.  I suspect you can also find lots of free fire wood for the winter.

There is a wall at work with time  predictions for my race this weekend.  They range from 2:15:30 to 2:23:30.  Obviously these people don't think I have ever tried in the past and have no clue how difficult it is to shave even seconds off my PR, let alone 20.  But, I still appreciate their optimism.  :)

A few miles on the treadmill then headed to the airport.  2 people on the plane had Boston jackets on.  Quite intimidating.
