We've helped a guy with an itchy bung, nothing here is awkward Wink

Yep, good point. We're happily dysfunctional in these parts. Not to be confused with HapyLily, dysfunctional... Smile

Trying to find some more hay to restock the barn

SIAR, I'm happy that your mojo is returning.

Thanks for the explanation, Damaris.

One set of each weighted exercise, twenty-seven minutes on the AMT, foam rolling, and stretching are done. I'll do ab work at home.

After this morning's run, I'm beginning to worry about meeting my goal of a sub-2:00:00 (I'll take 1:59:59.99!) HM next week:/

6 more miles. Lower Dewpoint = faster run. Which is why I hate morning running!

I woke up well after Heidi was done kickin' major ass, had a leisurely couple hours of coffee and crosswords, then headed out for my best friggin' run of the season. Just an awesome LSD run uphill for 5-ish miles and then back down again. First time to run uphill that long and be totally relaxed the whole way. And to run that far downhill without knee pain : priceless. Thank you strength training. Thank you medial quadriceps.

To top it off, I found a place that serves an excellent recovery beverage with gin, blood oranges and Campari. Mmm, summertime!

Stupid feet!

Stupid elbow!

Hello all,

Completed my 5K race today at 24:43 (127 out of 697). Ran faster than I expected but felt good. Now I have to wait for the Half Marathon next week.

Congrats! Faster than expected but felt good = definition of good race, bodes well for the HM.

Marjorie, I guess it's a tradeoff--stamina vs. intensity so that's OK. I still admire the mental strength of pushing through long runs.

Damaris--it's funny, I do better with a slightly higher dew point BUT I think probably still lower than is normal for Florida. Glad you had a good 6 though.

PRs: 5k 19:25, mile 5:38, HM 1:30:56

Lifting PRs: bench press 125lb, back squat 205 lb, deadlift 245lb
