[Pink]

Good Morning! I'm surprised I'm the first post this late . . .<br><br>
I ran 20.5 miles this morning. The 20th mile was exactly an 8:00 min. mile and my overall pace was 8:41. Not as fast as I would have liked, but after a good 18 miler last week and a small race Monday night, I knew it wouldn't be too fast - but got the miles covered.<br><br>
Pro - hopefully a couple easy days will help recover your pains!<br><br>
Time for a nice big glass of chocolate milk!<br><br>
All have a great day!<br><br>
Good Luck and Have Fun to the H2Cers and go Millbot!!!

Dear Pink,<br><br>
I feel very good this morning. Still taking the day off. Swam this morning though.<br><br>
Had to get in that extra .5 miles didn't you? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br><br>

Nice run Pink. I wouldn't think you'd be to disappointed in that run this morning. I picked up 6.35 miles this morning @ 8:10 avg pace and will double up tonight adding about 6 more. Plan on 13 or so easy tomorrow morning.<br><br>
good runs<br>

Good Morning..<br>
Wow Pink, was that before work <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">? Nice job!<br><br>
I'm still on the Cape. That Falmouth Road Race route was so nice yesterday, I returned for my mid-week m-LR. Ran the route from finish to start to finish (that is pub to pub to pub<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">). 14.12 miles in 2hrs flat (8:30 pace AHR 157). Nice breeze and drizzle on the return leg. Love the little hills to get the heart pumping briefly! I could run up a hill to a light house all day long.. So special!<br><br>
Have greta runs!<br><br>

Wow, nice 20+, Pink! I would be very happy with that pace.<br><br>

Thanks for the encouragement, kickrunners! <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
Go go go, you nutty H2C runners!

<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/notworthy.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="notworthy"> Pink. Nice way to fit my normal weekly mileage into one speedy morning run before starting your day. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/hello2.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="hello1"><br><br>
No run for me today. But I'm planning on a lunchtime run tomorrow and then a long run of 10 miles on Saturday, so I guess two rest days in a row is okay.

Good morning to all, Good runs Pink and perch, and nice paces too, all that done before I get out of bed <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/notworthy.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="notworthy"><br><br>
Millbot, are you going to run that 1/2 marathon barefoot?? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"><br><br>
Worked late last night to finish up some project we've been working on, so now I'm in the <b>Official H2C Party Mode</b>. Our team name is <b>Team Stop</b> <b>Whining Crybabies</b> <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/crybaby2.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="crybaby"> I'm guessing there's some history to this that I don't know about. I'm leaving here sometime this afternoon as I'm meeting my van around noon tomorrow near Portland Airport. Portland's a five hour drive and I still have to leave my vehicle somewhere and then get to the meeting spot. So I think I'll get there tonight and then sleep in tomorrow. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sleepy1.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="sleepy1"><br><br>
Early wishes for a great weekend all<br><br>
Congrats on your promotion to 5K runner Tamster, at this rate you'll be Ultrarunner by your BD

 

[Ileneforward]

Have a great time, you Hood to Coasters! My running club is sending a team.<br><br>
It turns out I will be driving a van with Mr. Forward to Las Vegas on saturday to pick up some motorcycles, so I will get my 18 mile run in first, then head out. I guess we will live the wild life in Vegas when we get there. <snooze ..zzzzzzzzz> <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile">

I'm so jealous of the H2C crowd. Frequent updates will be required. Sans, will Mr S be coming along to provide entertaining editorials?<br><br>
Pink, that was a fabulous long run. Someday when I grow up, I wanna run like you.<br><br>
I don't go out until a session with Coach at the track tonight. I don't have much speed in me... so we'll just go and amble around a bit. I think I'll take a bunch of my medium-aged shoes along and decide, once and for all, which feel best with the orthotics.

 

[JJJessee]

Whoooa nellie there Pink. Now what are gonna do for fun this weekend?<br>
Great Job.<br><br>
12 for me with 6x(800hard+800easy). My 800hard is about the pace Pink ran the whole 20+. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/shock.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Shock"><br><br>
Have a great time H2C team.<br>
Lab and Souci take care of those feet.<br>

[choovie]

Excellent run, Pink. I can't even begin to fathom running that fast, that far. I managed 12 this morning with a hair over 9 run with a friend. Not to try to show Pink up or anything but my last mile was the fastest at 9:34. hehe.<br><br>
Johnny, I have no idea about the history of that Crybaby name. I think you should've been the Gods and Goddesses or something. Hope everyone has a great time and enjoys the event.<br><br>
Time to eat!

 

[Liam3494]

I must admit I want to run the Hood to Coast one day - All I need is a team over there to ask me <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"><br><br>
I have been posting my runs on my blog and on the Run and Race Report Forum, but as more people post here, I guess I should write here as well!<br><br>
Well, today I ran a 6.6 mile run at 8 minute pace, along the Liffey and out along Sandymount Strand - It's Dublin! Nice and steady to follow my 7.5 mile run last night - Building up the miles slowly but surely.<br><br>

Johnny and I are from the same town - about 4 hrs south of Portland where the H2C to starting out. I have a feeling he'll love it so much and will want to do it every year. Maybe Johnny would be so inclined to organize a relay team of runners from our neck o' the woods. And of course, we'd love to invite our favorite irish runner as well. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/occasion14.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="occasion5"> Since I'm half irish, I would need some more irish blood on the team, assuming Johnny would want me on his team? <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy">

 

[Road hawk]

Great run Pink.<br><br>
Have great fun H2Cers<br><br>
I did 3.2 in 33:29 at lunch today.<br><br>
Peace

 

[Johnny]

That sounds like a good idea, a team of Kicksters/CRer's. From what I understand it fills up in something like 15 minutes <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Very Happy"> or thereabouts after registration opens, and they turn away as many as apply.<br><br>
As the Tamster wells knows, I've had a megacrush on her for the last year, 48 hours in a van would be a dream come true <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/cool.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Cool">

[choovie]

Tom, you've really had some heat this summer. Is that typical for you. Those temps you've been posting are most impressive.

 

[Mustang Sally]

Just back from the physio! He says that my layoff has been doing a lot of good, and that I'm much, much better than I was in the shin department. So: with ice and liberal use of The Stick, I'm cleared to consider myself recovered.<br><br>
Although I'm to go very, very gently, please.
