<p>Hrm.. everyone must be sleeping in or getting their runs out of the way. I have 10M today. Unfortunately, it is going to be on the TM, since it's going to be raining all day. Meh!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I dun wanna!</p>

<p>/taptaptap Is this thing on? Bueller?  Bueller?</p>

 

[gatorbob]

Good question. Where is everyone?<br><br>
I got in a short 2 mile run in Memphis after I arrived. It was cold and rainy, but oh well. I found a park along the Mississippi. It wasn't as scenic as that might sound.<br><br>
Then i drove here to Little Rock. I met RFTL at the expo. Now I've gone to a pub for lunch. And a beer. Probably not the best thing for me now, but what the hell. I'll meet up with RFTL again for an early dinner, then turn in early to get a good night's sleep...

 

[gatorbob]

Okay, second beer with lunch...<br><br>
Also, i see that the post-race party tomorrow night will have free BBQ from a place called The Whole Hog Cafe. How can that NOT be good?!? Not to mention all the free beer you can drink...

<p>Afternoon peeps!  Got myself a sweet 16 miler on the trails today + a climb up the 300 ft/.25 mi Carpenter's Trail (aka a bunch of cliff stairs).  Our weather is so supa sweet today, shorts & short sleeve shirt all the way!!!   Right heel is a little crabby but otherwise a solid run.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>GOOD LUCK <strong>BOB</strong>, <strong>CINDI</strong> and <strong>COLLEEN</strong>!!!!</p>

<p>A nifty thunderstorm this morning prompted a schedule shuffle.   Meeting J at 7:00 in the morning instead with a commitment to run indoors if necessary.  We couldn't handle that idea this morning when waiting a day was possible.   5 miles indoors is probably my limit.   I guess I should try a bit more just to see </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Good luck to our racers tomorrow!</p>

 

[bard73]

<p>Good luck racers! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's a bit soggy here.  I haven't run since Dec 24.  That is all.</p>

<p>12 miles for me today, first 10k was too quick at 51:30 and the last four miles kind of sucked, probably as a result of my early eagerness.  Could have used some podcasts to slow me down, but I forgot the iPod.  I'm really sore tonight, time for some Vitamin I. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Great run <span style="color:#00ff00;">Maria</span>!</p>

Thanks, guys. Good luck to the other racers too!<br><br>
It's cold here (37 degrees). Mao I'm probably going to overseers to the point where I'm too warm at the end. Oh well. Anyway, I'll get in touch when I'm done...

<br><br><p>GAAAAAAA! We didn't have any snow yesterday (or only a few small piles left), but this morning I heard Dh plowing (at 6am). He won't plow unless it's 4-5'', so we have at least that.</p>

<p>I just took the boys out - Jack was whining on the landing - I thought he was going to explode. Anyway, the sidewalks are all icy, which means I'm on the tm this morning.</p>

Be glad you heard him!  Otherwise you might have another small river to clean up downstairs!</p>

[missy1102]

<p>some grrrrrreat runs/fitnessing going on this weekend!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>wowsers <strong>maria, duck, amy, and elizabeth</strong> (yay for GR!!! i've ALWAYS wanted to run that!)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>RACE DAY, RACE DAY!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i am all signed up for tracking <strong>cindi</strong> at marathontracks.com but did <strong>bob</strong> leave us a bib #? i don't recall if he did.. and you need it to track the runner. someone let me know what it is if you know it - i tried looking him up but no dice.</p>

 

[2oh]

<p>i didn't have bib #'s so you'll have to keep my up to date <strong>missy</strong> (please?).  we're off to a bday party in a few hours and i don't think i'll have time to check in.</p>
<p>go get 'em <strong>bob</strong>, <strong>cindi</strong> & <strong>colleen</strong>!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i ran 100 yards the other day more out of necessity than pleasure.  it didn't feel too good but it felt better than it would have a month ago.</p>
<p>i did manage to swim twice and workout 3x while on my left coast swing last week.  it was a nice 25 yard outdoor lap pool at my hotel. air temp was 45* in the AM, but the pool was heated so the contrast was actually nice.  i noticed that the <em>under</em>area of my suit is almost worn out and nearly see through now.  yikes.  suggestions on the best place to buy a replacement spandex (kneelength) suit?  <strong>moon/tonya/solar/theia</strong>?  thanks</p>
<p>otherwise, i'm keeping up with lifting a bunch of upper body stuff.  still not the same satisfaction as busting out a long run, but it's better than nothing.  i'm bike shopping now, reading up and learning and hope to make a purchase by the end of the month.  i have a crapload of coins/pocket change (it's like found money!) that'll hopefully pay for a few components.</p>
<p>i have been asked to participate in a bunch of running events (team stuff) includig the tough mudder in VT (sounds like a blast!) and had to say no.  why didn't these offers come last year?  meh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>nice work <strong>duck, ailarie, maria, amy</strong>....the list goes on...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>hope you're all well</p>
<p> </p>
<p>cheers</p>
