Okay, you all have scared me...I'll let go of the idea of that workout.<br><br>
For whatever reason, it looked hard but not as hard as you say it'll be. I don't need to be blowing up during an interval session. I'll stick with my little Pfitz style intervals<img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">.

Which race is that?<br><br><b>Philly Peeps</b>: Anyone else interested in the <a href="http://www.runningco.com/Races/Race_Flyers/2008/0803AdrenalineRun.html" target="_blank">Adrenaline 5k</a> (Haddonfield) on Saturday the 15th? <b>Solar</b> and I will be there... <b>Theia?

I think not running might be more frustrating now that the cast is off. <img alt="cool.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/cool.gif"><br><br>
I don't recommend it. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br>
I'm sure there is an appropriate smiley out there, but I'll just say..yep....it wasn't pretty.<br><br><br>
And thanks to <b>everyone</b> for all of your responses. I will continue to live vicareously through y'all until I can hit the street again...let me rephrase...until I can go out and run again.

 

[theia]

Theia = dumbass. I meant March 9 (inaugural Caesar Rodney 5K).<br><br>
Gaaa! I just agreed to teach a class that morning. Rats.<br><br>
Hey, how's PhillyWife's leg?

 

[lgreenberg]

I'm at the fire academy every Sat/Sun until April 14th.

 

[phillytom]

Hot! As always <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> Improving. She's back to running and still feeling good for Broad St.

<b>Boston Registration is closed!!</b><br><br>
It's a good thing I officially signed up about a month ago--and I've gotten my conformation card. I tend to put that kind of stuff off, I had no idea it filled up so fast!

 

[Runnin-from-the-Law]

Hi Gang -<br><br>
Looks like there will be some good mileage totals for February! I should finish with just under 140.<br><br><b>Theia</b> - that is alot of workin out in one day - hope you are eating alot today!<br><br>
Umm, <b>CoachT</b>, 35 is not cold.<br><br>
Rested, elevated and iced the quad all last night and today. And popped a bunch of ibuprofren. It felt ALOT better - so I decided to do 7 easy miles today, so I can rest tomorrow and then finish the week with 3 days of running in a row - rather than rest today and do 4 days of running in a row. Hope I won't regret it. It felt ok while I was running and feels ok now. Gonna keep icing it just in case.<br><br>
Good runs to those that still have them!

Registration for Boston '08 opened up a loooooong time ago - September 5th to be exact.<br><br>

 

[JenRuns]

I realize that, I just feel for people who qualified recently/or just procrastinated a little and now have to wait until next year. For whatever reason, I didn't think it filled a couple of months out. I think this year it filled pretty quickly, correct?

 

[PacerChris]

Usually mid-March is when it closes, if it closes at all. It's probably a little earlier this year due to the Olympic Trials and all the hubbub of that.<br><br><b>CoachT</b> Any word from the BAA on your deferment?<br><br>
Forgot to mention to <b>Voo</b> - great photos. Are those part of the Ohio rails-to-trail networks that will run (eventually) from my neck of the woods to Erie? The newest spur of that starts 2 miles from my house and is at least 70 miles long (probably more). Some sections are nicer than others, but it sure is great to have a flat, measured every half mile trail like that near my house. If I ever get big into cycling, I may have to ride up to your house someday, throw back a few Yuenglings and a burrito, and then pedal on home.

 

[2oh]

<br><br><span style="color:#000000;">um, well, unless you know the right people</span><br><br><br>
8 miles in the books and I'm ready for my day off tomorrow. next 2 weekends I have 20+ milers scheduled. I'm thinking it's time for a serious step back after I knock those out. a little R, R & R (recovery, rejuvenation, reenergizing) is sounding good.<br>
and beer.

 

[coacht]

The only option was to send it via regular mail, so it'll probably be a while. I'll be nervous until I get it though....<br><br>

 

[Voodoojunkie]

No, it's not. I believe the Erie Towpath Trail is part of the rails-to-trails network that you're talking about. And that would be a mighty trek! It's about 4.5 hours by car to Cincy from here! I've ridden that trail up to near Cleveland before.<br><br><b>But</b> that trail (Sand Run Park) technically is connected to the Towpath Trail via the Buckeye Trail, which is a hiking trail. And the Towpath Trail is less that a half-mile from Sand Run. The Towpath Trail runs right outside my office building. I mean, I can look out the window and see it five yards away.

 

[baggio16]

Dangit, now I have to train again and try to get back. I was going to try the couch potato/beer drinker's guide to training for a marathon.<br><br><b>MN Folks</b> - Human Race 5/8k on March 16th. Good race. I'll be there. First real race in a long time.

 

[runningINnyc]

I'm getting a little stir crazy from not having raced in awhile. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

 

[coacht]

There's a good chance that Boston '09 will have quite a large 30s contingent. Heck, that was a major consideration in my ultimate decision to defer.<br><br>

 

[KP]

you and me both...speaking of which need to register for a 5k on 3/15

 

[startingover]

This is a great plan, one of my favorites!

Are you doing the Irish run in Kingsley? <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">
