What Day?

Well, it's Saturday and next Saturday I will be picking up my pre-race packet at the Hilton in downtown Portland. The revised forecast now shows a chance of showers for Sunday, the 9th. (60%)

But this Saturday morning I was still in Northern California and I took the time for a 6.333 mile walk at Bidwell. I started at 1-Mile, where the first mile marker is located and then used my GPS and pedometer to determine just which one was accurate. The pedometer won, being right on the money at 3 out of 5 checkpoints. At the 5 mile marker, the pedometer showed 4.99. That's close enough for me. Despite all of the checking and verifying, I still did the 6.3 miles in 83 minutes.
