a mystery solved

so, i'd been following this training guide for the marathon, and there was something about it that just wasn't right. the sunday long runs it said to run 10 minutes, then walk 1, but then on tuesday morning it said to run 4 miles at a 6:30 pace! oh, those first few weeks, how i tried.

and, the race yesterday only had mile markers at mile 1 and with 1 to go! all the rest were in km. i had never actually done the math to see what my pace was in minutes/km, but i got to know it pretty well over the 42km yesterday, and, well, it's obvious now. that 6:30 wasn't minutes per mile, it was minutes per km. i should have known.

also, i really need to go to montreal.

well, time to board.
