Half Crazy K 2.0


     

    What kind of "grass", we talkin about man?  Maybe they were into farmer Chongs medical patch.

     

     

     

    Haven't started legally growing that kind of grass in MD. Yet.

      It would be wasted on me. I can't really eat much right after a marathon. I still regret my first marathon where they had cups of Culver's frozen custard at the end (some of you midwest people know all about that), but I couldn't bring myself to have any, since I was sort of having dry heaves at that point.

       

      I don't even take the free beer after the Montreal marathon. I just slowly limp home. I drink water and that's it.

        I always take the beer mid race, doh.

          Totally forgot, early in the run, passed someone wearing something like these:

          I had to step out of the way, cause she was not about to share the sidewalk.

            HC:  Maybe she didn't have enough control over those things?

             

            No Culvers around here but stopped in one in Twin Falls, ID last summer.  GF's daughter loves Culvers from when she lived in the Midwest so we had to stop, have some, and send her pictures  . 


            No more marathons

              Those look just a little bit frightening.

              Lordy,  I hope there are tapes.

                I'm convinced that the best beer I ever had was on the downside of heartbreak hill.

                And it was a Bud Lite 

                I would usually prefer creek water to a BL.

                No more marathons

                  And the streak (if you can call it that) continues.

                  6 days - 4.1 miles today.

                  Started home after work - usually drive to the college a few miles from home and run there.

                  But traffic was so bad I turned around and ran what used to be my normal lunch time course - that was before I lost my work shower.

                      I've always wondered about this. Maybe I'm too much of a light weight, but I think I'd catch a smal buzz even with a couple sips.

                        Yeah, I've seen that sight and do the hip flexor stretch they recommend.  Actually "jumpers knee" is what did me in back in the day. Sad It would always get worse just when I was starting to get back into shape. I didn't put much stock in rehab back then, but I do now.  The steps ups seem to keep it at bay (knock on wood) , along with some single leg squat work-like in the video.

                          Might help with the pain?

                            Yeah, and look like a trip to the ER just waiting to happen.

                              I would need more than 1oz of beer to get a buzz.  Like a case?

                               

                              It rained for 30 minutes here and we almost went under.  Oh, Miami:
