Marathon Lesson #73 (Read 183 times)

Love the Half


    Even if it's cold and you're freezing and you don't want to pull up your shirt to carefully apply liberal amounts of Vaseline to your nips, you should do so.  A careless application can leave one taking rather painful showers several days post race.

     

    You're welcome.

    Short term goal: 17:59 5K

    Mid term goal:  2:54:59 marathon

    Long term goal: To say I've been a runner half my life.  (I started running at age 45).

      Amen. That's one of the reasons I use waterproof Nexcare tape.

       

       

       

        Did I miss lessons #1-72?

          If that's lesson #73, it can't be that important.

              Lesson #1 is always take a crap before running of any type.  Always.

                ^ and by that i mean BEFORE suiting up.

                  Lesson  #2 is to take another one, just to be safe.

                      I thought this was #2...

                       

                       

                      I'm happy, hope you're happy too...

                        Liquid bandage, don't need to reapply it and it won't fall off like tape/bandaids can sometimes.
