    Why not 100-miler?

     

    Good point, he does like his long runs.

      He'd better learn to "eat shit up" on the run.

        There is nothing about the number 100 that appeals to me except dollar bills.  lol

          LRB, I think there's a half in Monroe in November.

            Take a look around, we are not immune.  It takes incredible discipline for me to maintain my weight, if I slack off for even two or three weeks or God forbid a month, BLOOF!  lol

             

            Read her post again. You guys don't have to deal with hormones and menopause.  Lucky bastards, like I said!

               Read her post again.

               

              I was not to speaking to menopause (obviously) but to her comment of metabolism or slowing metabolism as it were, something we all have to deal with as we age.

               

              That said, there is no debate (and I am not) that women have it worse.

                103.8 lbs this morning, about 2 lbs more than usual marathon day race weight. But I had a week of overindulgence after the marathon last Sunday, so that is why. 103,8 lbs means absolutely nothing to me, except that I'm about 10 lbs overweight in the legs and butt, and 8 lbs underweight in the upper body. Hooray for the freaks!

                  If Lily is overweight I am about to explode.... 

                   

                  I am now 1lbs off than what I was the day before Chicago, so I've lost 1lbs in 2 weeks which, as you know, it's a fucking miracle.  I am being sent for another blood test to see before more treatment.  Sigh.

                              I will keep it short and sweet; them pop tarts have caught up with my ass.  BAROOFABLOOF!

                                Hmmm. Maybe because you only race marathons so you end up eating every poptart in sight? 

                                 

                                I plan to gain a bit more over the next week or two while I slowly get back at it.
