<p>I'm BigGahoona, and I like marathons!   I'm currently training for Twin Cities on October 3rd.  I've decided to put off today's run to tomorrow morning - so's I can get dem points!  AND I'm donating blood tomorrow too! Wooty hoo hoo! </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Theia</strong> - your family supports your athletic endeavors, right?  They'd surely be okay taking over your share of the clean-up-and-get-out part of the beach house!  DO IT! I bet your fam will say the same thing. DO IT!</p>

<p>Rand, all these comments you're making all over the place about me stacking the other team is starting to give me a complex. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad5.gif" style="width:17px;height:16px;" title=""></p>

<p>It's all strategy.  Right, team?</p>

<p>We're a stealthy come from behind kind of team.</p>

59 so far on Sunday, thanks to my local sprint tri<br><br>
I'm happiest about the 5 bonus points for a PR. Even with a slow, sloppy swim, I beat my course & sprint PR by something like 3 1/2 minutes. I finished with a lot in the tank, which is not normal for me. Must've been the good weather.</div>

<p><br>
WOOT!  Way to GO!!   <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wav.gif" title=""></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Everyone is doing a spectacular job!!!!  YAYYYY Team Be Aggressive!</p>

 

[BigGahoona]

<p>I ran 9 excruciatingly long miles on the gym dreadmill today. But BY GOD I DID IT.   And I stretched for 15 minutes so I got the bonus. Yey me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Big mileage week ahead.  woohoo!</p>

 

[BigGahoona]

<p>Gobi does not scare me in the slightest.  neener.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I ran 10.15 miles on the treadmill tonight.  Walked a mile today too.  Plus my 15 minute Yoga for Runners routine. woot!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>and now...bed.</p>
<p> </p>

<p>Psssst! </p>

<p>Gobi's on a 3 day mini-taper.  Let's get in there and rack up some points while he's down!!</p>

he'll just see how many points we have when he gets back and make sure he's on top and his team is winning again ...that's the way he rolls ...</p>

<p>gobi win overall points and his team always wins ... even when his leg is broken or something like that ... I told BG to count him as 2-3, bwahahahahaaaaa</p>

<p><br><br>
Next time it's going to be Gobi vs. everyone else.</p>

When we reported in a thread, the captain had to keep track and then report to the Commish every day? Week? Then we'd come in here and anxiously await an update to how each team was doing. It really added to the excitement of the game, if that makes sense. I sort of think that's missing with our instantaneous access to points. (And believe me, I *always* check both team and individual results! I love knowing, don't get me wrong!) Like knowing Gobi (or whoever) is so far ahead is actually kind of annoying.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not sure if that all makes sense, but there ya go! <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif" title=""></p>
</div>
</div>
<p> </p>
<p>I find it more motivating to see everyone's points.  It gets me out the door knowing that Gobi is racking up points like that.  It makes me want to kick his ass.  heh. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" title=""><br>
 </p>

 

[BigGahoona]

<p>19.5 miles run today and 15 minutes of stretching - SO FAR.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kicking ass and taking names.  </p>

Wow! That seems unusual. I thought part of the oath to be a knight included being on time! You may want to talk to their supervisor/King. <img alt="" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;" title=""></p>
