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.

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

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.

The chair is EVIL. EVIL!!

 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).

I've never met A1 but he seems like someone who I would prefer to be on my side in a fight. ~ L Train

"No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."”

yes, please.
He's all wrong for us, baby. I saw you beat that man like I never saw no man get beat before, and the man kept coming after you. Now we don't need no man like that in our lives.

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.

Today I will do things others won't, so tomorrow I can do things others can't.
