January 25-31 Racing (finally) (Read 838 times)


Right on Hereford...

    Whoa, I just realized that I didn't even start this week's thread yet. I'm at the end of two weeks of hell. Last week was work hell and this week was moving hell. I did manage to get all my runs in, though, so I've got my priorities straight!

     

    If anyone is racing this weekend (or already raced this week), post here and I will catch up eventually.

            What does Tunis make?

              Local trail run, 3000m. Goal: Don't mess up my ankle carrying the equipment from outside the park to the start.

              It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                Toes very cold and foot all tingly when I returned, but didn't mess up ankle.

                 

                Disclaimer: I think we had 5 runners at the event, and that's counting three of us organizers. Also, I was in the walking/IR division, so I didn't see the pretty snow falling as the runners carefully navigated the snow & ice along the riverbanks. Happily no one slipped and fell in.

                     2:57:10 unofficially.  5 OA.  Interesting race report to give details if enough requests.

                     

                    MTA: report to follow.  Must play with kids, run, eat, go to work (write report there).

                      "As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man / I have chalked up many a mile. / Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks, / And I've learned much from both of their styles." ~ Jimmy Buffett

                          Veronica and I trying this new fad called uh, jogging. I believe it's jogging or yogging. it might be a soft j. I'm not sure but apparently you just run for an extended period of time. It's supposed to be wild.

                            yes, please.

                            mr train you are a pain, your words - they make me go insane

                            they strike my ever-thinking brain like little drops of acid rain

                            oh, to my life you are a bane; crazy, mixed up, mr train - r2e

                             

                              I'll throw in my request, since all the cool kids (and L Train) have already done so.

                               

                              MTA:  Yeah, I'm bitter over the Harry Caray dig.
