Feeling the growl again

    That should be so easy, it's insulting. What happens when we run low 18's? If C-R can run a 20:13 (6:31/mi) at 20 lbs overweight, I figure he should easily be in the 35 to 40 sec. a mile faster when that comes off. Without improved fitness.

     

    Bloody hell I need to not respond to this stuff after a couple beers.  Apparently it completely eliminates my math skillz.  I can see how it looked like I was going to throw this like a Chinese badminton player....mid/low 15's by 12/31 my ass.

     

    C-R, if you are agreeable, let's amend this to 2:10.  If you run a 19:30 this puts me at needing 16:20.  The fastest 5K I have run since moving to Indiana is 16:17, so that is a hard but reasonable bargain from my end.  If you get in PR shape I will be hosed (15:50ish).

      I'm going to enjoy watching all this.  Great idea.

        This ain't a peep show.  Throw down.  How about a whiskey shot per lap to failure?

          Now we're talking. I might have some new North Wilkesboro shine coming in too.

            No, I quite like the voyeuristic approach to all this.

            Whisky to failure (is failure passing out, or just vomiting) sounds like I'll be hurling rather a lot of whisky...though nowhere near as much as you (given I can feel it when I drink 1 glass of wine and have never been sick through alcohol because I have always stopped drinking before the "you're going to regret this" switch gets numbed by EtOH. 

            I'll try to come up with something, if you don't do something bad and make me at least refuse to join in first.

              That depends on who the peeper and the peepee are.

              Not at it at all. 

              C-R


                That sounds like a proper challenge. Make the change.

                 

                Seems the only time I come on here, I get called out by someone. Well, I say bring it all (except that 24 hour stuff - that's just mad).

                    Sigh.   I am officially an idiot.

                     

                    Let's call it 3:00 then and I'll just shut up now.

                        I like it. You're trying to bring CR out of hiding!

                          He's getting my ass out of bed at 5:45am....apparently he's not hiding well enough.

                            He did guarantee that he'd be back to take out his revenge on Tecumseh.
