30 minutes on the hotel elliptical trainer just trying to stay awake so I could sleep normal and get over jetlag.  I walked around Barcelona for 6 hours today like a zombie trying to stay awake.

I really wanted to run on the beach today, problem is my hotel is quite a ways from the beach.  I had a pretty good idea of how to get there from the hotel so I just went out and started running.  It was exactly 5 miles to the beach, I ran along it for 1/2 a mile and then ran back.  (I was planning on running 12 and gave myself a 1 mile buffer to get lost, I only got .25 miles lost)  Not as great of running here in Barcelona as I was hoping but I think it is mostly due to the location of the hotel more than the city.  I felt completely safe running the streets at 5:00 in the morning.

Pretty nice run this morning up to the Olympic Village, or whatever it's called here.  I was hoping the track might be open but the entire arena was fenced off so I ran a lap around the arena and then started running on the roads around the Village, pretty neat place to run but very steep hills.  I'm going to have to look it up but if the Marathon ended on the Track that would have been a pretty brutal last mile up to the track.

6 Slow miles around Olympic park before another really long day at work.  I'm tired, and these hills are making my legs sore.

10 miles up and over Mont Juic (where the Olympic Stadium is) over to the cruise ships and back.  Nice run, a bit warm this morning.  Even though it's a very steep climb it is very peaceful up on top of the hill.

Good luck to all of you that have to wake up in 2 hours to run St. George Marathon.  I'm excited to wake up and read race reports all day tomorrow.
