          We finish at a bar.  Finally it's socially acceptable to drink at 10:30 am. Big grin

         

        Might be an overly ambitious time goal just one week removed from my 45-mile training run, but what the fuck, gotta throw it out there!!

          C'mon Man! I call BULLSHIT!!!!

           

          You beat this effort in training last week. I'll grant you that 45 miles has to wreak some kinda havok, but you've been so killing it in training lately. I want more, good sir.

            Shooting for a PR, see if I can extend my beginner's PR streak a little longer. My legs aren't feeling great though, having been trying to up my mileage lately.

              I know, I know.  My legs are still sore as fuck and the thought of anything faster than 6:10 pace doesn't sound feasible unless I can get the tightness in my left leg to subside before Saturday.  I think if this race was on 2/23 I'd be fine and would definitely shoot for 76 minutes but a week removed from 45-miles (done with no taper and no days off) just seems daunting.

               

              That said...I'll give it a try.  At the very least I have the motivation of getting to the beer faster.

                Fuck it man, revise my goal to sub 1:20.  That's fair, right?

                  Sucker! I accept your challenge. I have to post the same goal in 3 weeks and I do not think I am in anywhere near as good of shape as you are. Unless we still count round as a shape then I may be perfect.

                    5K trail race on the 16th. I never really know how to treat these on the race thread. Last year I won with 20:50. Three years ago I got a distant third with 18:57. I'll say goal=win.

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

                        So you also will be doing a 45 mile training run this week?

                            To be clear though, I only did that run so I could drink an assload of beer this week with impunity.

                              (Being inspired by Ilene) I will throw my hat in the ring as another would-be runner who is also not doing a 45 mile run this week.

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