2014 Ethiopia training update

A typical training run in the altitude of Ethiopia.
My training is good.  I just started again this week.  I'm trying hard to get into a marathon in April.  My options are Daegu (South Korea) 4/6, Rotterdam 4/13, and Boston 4/21.

Daegu is very good marathon.  Not too fast for me.  The winner last year ran 2:08:33.  My goal, if I go, is to run under 2:09.  Daegu is my first choice.

Rotterdam is super fast.  Last year's winner ran 2:04.  They have a pace maker for groups 1 -2-3.  If I go it will be just  to run a fast time.

I will focus on road races in the USA for April, May June, and July.
