I know a few of you guys are struggling with joint and muscle pain. I recently came across this article that, while almost three years old, has a lot of great exercises for combating mobility issues. 
 Definitely worth a read:

That's cool you got to be there to see a little bit of history in the making. First win in three decades is definitely noteworthy.
 Ran a nice 10.5 miler along the coast tonight. Almost got a sub-8 min/mile average which is a first for me. Feeling pretty good for next week's marathon.

Anyone use calf compression sleeves?  I've been getting extra soreness in my lower legs doing speedwork the past few weeks.  Something like this:http://www.amazon.com/2XU-Non-Stirrup-Co...ion+calf+sleeve

I use calf sleeves after long runs, typically anything over 10 miles.  If it is a 15+ mile run I'll wear them all day, even sleep with them on as they don't bother me.  They're great fore recovery, the next day you'll feel basically normal.  I have Feetures and CEP.

It's supposed to drop to the 70s by Sunday. Don't think I could handle another 90* marathon.

Not only is that some serious heat but that's serious mileage and vert in awesome time!  You're too damn fast lol.
 Now that I moved to FL I need to get used to the heat here.  I ran on Saturday 9:30am-10:30am and it was brutal.  Over 80 and the sun is so fucking direct here it killed me.  I only did 6.8 miles but wished within 3 miles I had water with me.  Going to take a good while for my body to adjust to this kind of heat.

Well... the OC Marathon got pretty darn hot around 2 hours in. Despite that I managed to shatter my previous PR by nearly 30 minutes.
 Final time was 4:10:39. Pretty stoked.

Thanks man. I really wanted to get under 4 but got woozy/nauseous late in the race. I think it was a combo of heat and training at a much slower pace until very recently.
 My goal was to beat my sister's time of 4:31:xx that she had set when she was in college. And I will probably enjoy family bragging rights for years to come.
  
 I don't plan to run another marathon until next year. But I have plenty of other shorter races to keep me busy. :-)

For sure!  I almost get ran over by those fuckers all the time!    
 At the rate you're going, probably the other way around.
  
 Well done!

80-90%. STIFF this morning. But now? Just a little sore in the knees and calves. Walking seems to help a lot. 
 
 I'm going a little crazy forcing myself to take it easy.
