My Brief Review of The Revenant
So here is a quick review of The Revenant.
This weekend in Knightdale NC we had a snow/sleet and ice storm along with the rest of the east coast. What did they call it, "snowpocolypse?" We had no power for a day and Sunday we were itching to do something, so we went to the movies.
We chose to go see The Revenant starring Leonardo Dicaprio.
What was the movie like? It was intense. Life back in the early 1800's as a pelt hunter was tough and on the edge. I was leaned forward and tense the whole time. A great watch, but hold onto your seat and be prepared to see the not so pretty.
Funny thing is, the cold winter scenes of the movie matched our weather minus the mountains.
Nature and life are not easy. People turn on you, animals defend and the elements test. Keep fighting!

Marathon Training Update for Rock-n-Roll Raleigh
Well the Rock N Roll Raleigh is less than a month away. How well is my training going?
Training started way back in October. I ran Tobacco trail 10 Miler and did okay. Never went over 10 the rest of 2013. The start of 2014 I changed that.
Frankly my running at the end of 2013 was not good enough to do a marathon. For 2014, I needed to improve so I would be ready in April. Well it hasn't been going to well. I went 14 miles one week, regular miles the next, and have basically been keeping this pattern so far this year. After my 15/16 mile week my right knee started to hurt. That forced me to change. I added biking during the week (no impact), and still do long run on weekend. That plan worked pretty well and I had no knee pain for awhile. Well the knee pain is back and marathon is a few weeks away. IT band issues and walking isn't all that easy.
How far along did I get before ITBS kicked in (left knee this time)? Well I had a 22 mile weekend and a 40 mile week. I felt like the distance should be enough for a first time finisher attempt. With the injuries, a sub 5 hour finish time is out the window. I have done a few half marathons and finished in 2:12 and 2:15, so sub 5 was reasonable I thought. Still have to run the race, so we will see what happens, hope the knees hold up or I'll finish by taxi service.
