What is your goal these days or are you just trying to find new marathons to run? 50 states etc . . .

I have run Tueplo twice before. I ran it this year because I like the race and because a load of friends were there. It was a fun run. And I had fun. Also, the RD has been trying to get be back down there for the past couple years after I did him a favor (I was happy to do it). No good deed goes unpunished...

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

It hasn't rained all year here...so of course we get a thunderstorm right before the race on a big metal bridge. Roll eyes

Proofread carefully to see if you any words out.

Finished with a time of 56:59. 1 minute faster than the 6 miler I ran in July and a faster pace than my PR 5K that I ran in April, so I'm pretty pleased with that. Got to run with Spaniel and C-R and they came back and pushed me the last half mile or so.

Someone is in line for new 5K, 5M, and 6M PRs. Congratulations.

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

Did you get hardware? And why the freaky distance - is that the distance of the bridge?

So reticent. What hardware? Something shiny? Something wearable? Something edible? Something that could get you in trouble if you are pulled over for driving after drinking it?

I like the web front page.

5 MILE RACE

_{* Actual distance is 5.3 miles}

Great footnote.

Thanks. It's a nice confidence builder to know I should be able to run faster at all the shorter distances. I may not run another 5K until next April as I'm trying to work on running a HM or two. Hopefully by then I'll be able to crush that 5K PR.

Don't have a time result to post for my 5k prediction run (awaiting results), but can report a fail. The top 19 finishers ranged from being within .35 seconds to 10 seconds from their predicted race times. So, it was at least over 10 seconds off.
