I think everyone thought this, but most aren't secure enough to admit it.
And, well, everyone who made the comments like that intentionally clicked to see the pictures. I smell shame.

You're proud of them. I'm afraid of them. That's awesome.

I just tried to add this to the list of races--this can't be the right date.
It took me almost two minutes to realize that. I have graded too many exams.
OK, I'm not definite until the sitter confirms ... but bhearn's picture reminded me of my upcoming race's name: 5/10 - CliveF - Bare Bones 5k - Salisbury NC - Goal = sub-19

5/22 - Roth Runner - Parkland Relay - Richmond Park, London ~3miles, Goal: 16:45 Not sure of the terrain or the hills in this one - I just to run a decent leg.

Mission accomplished. Good solid run and a pretty even effort. The leg was actually 2.79 miles according to Mr Garmin, so I'm happy with 15:36. It was all off road and up and down so this was a real confidence booster!

Congrats, Roth. Nice to beat a goal so decisively!

Nice run Robin. What's your running focus for the next few months?

Oops. That should be:

Hi Ken,
I'm just going to race a bit more over the summer and see where it gets me. I've got 2 x 3k's, a 5k and a 10k all on the track in the next 5 weeks. I'll be running in track spikes for the first time next week, that should be interesting! I might even do a 1500m / 3000m double next week....
Good luck in the 10k on Monday, I'm hoping you continue your PR streak....

Sounds like an eventful 5 weeks! FWIW, the only one I see lining up the racing schedule in June is Ilene. Let's see those goal times...
5/23 - pfetro - Chase Corporate Challenge - 3.5 Mile - Chicago, IL - sub 20
19:10 and 14th OA. Happy with this one...first real race in 2.5+ years
an amazing likeness
Not sure where GregC's post is...but 50 miles at Pineland is gonna suck tomorrow -- it's been raining for 4 days and nights, the temp right now is 44F and falling, and the wind is howling out of the north at 20 - 25mph.
Ouch.
Acceptable at a dance, invaluable in a shipwreck.
Nice run BTW. Quite impressive considering the crowds that you had to navigate. Hopefully this marks the beginning of some good racing yet to come this year!
pfetro and Roth Runner, great racing to you both!
Good luck to GregC in the rain. Nothing like mud and rain to complicate a race, especially an ultra.
Anyone know if we'll have updates from WrigleyGirl until the 135 miler is all said and done?
Updates over in the swamp:

And we run because we like itThrough the broad bright land

19:08, unofficially. It was a well-run race; I left no (major) doubt.
MTA: "official" unofficial results have me rounded to 19:09.
