      I was hoping for a little better, but I got a mug so I'm happy. I was even happier after I filled that mug with Guinness. Smile

        Set a man afire and he'll be warm the rest of his life.

          Way to hit it, Whodat.

           

          Say...was there supposed to be a footrace in New England today, or something?

            Ya good day for all, the Kid killed it.

             

            1:28:02 for me on about a month of training. Happy its coming back.

              1:19:50 for me. I'll take it, all things considered.

               

              Eight ball for EJ (if it's not Nads.) The Kid would walk away with it if he'd just posted a goal, alas.

                I just dunno.

                Close. 17:31. It was a weird race...all twisty and turny at the beginning with a couple of log jams/complete stops in the first 1/4 as people tried to figure out the route. I ran in 4th place for most of the first mile, then took the lead right after the first mile marker. One fella stayed right with me until mile 2, but then he dropped back (i did not pull away, alas).  Ran the last mile alone--which was hard.

                 

                1st OA. Never happens to me...so kind of a cool feeling.

                 

                Looking forward to hearing more about NB.  Good running all...

                SELFISH, like you.

                  1:22:56 for me. Missed the PR by 4 seconds but that PR was on a course .1 shorter so... I'm happy with the fitness and glad to to have ducked under 1:23.

                   

                  Nice to see so many running well this week.

                    My racing outside my comfort zone is done for the year, and this might be the last race I ever do in March.  Weather reports placed wind chill at -2 or 3.  And I don't like the cold.  So I left the watch in the car and just went and ran.

                     

                    Overall, though, I'm not upset with the time given the conditions.

                    There was a point in my life when I ran. Now, I just run.

                     

                    Back beat, the word was on the street
                    That the fire in your heart is out
                    I'm sure you've heard it all before
                    But you never really had a doubt

                      Probably a long shot as I haven't been focusing on speedwork much.  I'll just pretend I'm prepared to race this and hope I don't realize what a dumbass I am until I finish.

                       

                      I just picked up a copy of Chicago Athlete magazine after swinging by my LRS this afternoon, and who was named male athlete of the month?  Flatfooter!!!  Very nice job, Mike!

                        1:26:55. Not great, but a pr.

                            He should get to reveal his own info, but I did just look it up on Cool Running, and yeah, DAMN! Wow.

                            I put it under there.

                              Scary fast.

                                I just looked it up.

                                Also, I'd like to point out that this whole race was crazy fast. I know where the good runners in NE were this weekend.
