Bike fit

Yesterday I spent 3 glorious hours with the retul/fist fitter from soler's in Helotes.
By the end we had raised the seat, moved it forward, put on a shorter stem and cut down the bars. I feel like I have a new bike.
Which is good because the money that I had squirreled away for a new bike just went to car repairs...
Still, the biggest $250 upgrade I can imagine.

Today was 8mi at marathon pace. Done. Still not feeling confident as a runner bit that is ok. As long as I hit the times.

I am thinking about bagging the Austin 13.1 warm up race. Save the money, not lose the training time for taper and recover and not have to deal with the mental consequences of either doing well or doing poorly. Right now I pre inclined to just keep my head down and train. Seems like the right call. I don't think I would regret skipping the 13.1.
