Hip Redux

    Yeah, yeah, sticky thread, I know.

     

    Duathlon for me on Sunday, first ever attempt at a multisport event.  I have basically been in a two week taper for this.  Yeah, taper.  That's what I've been doing.  Big grin


    Whatcha got?

      For once, I have absolutely NO races this weekend.  The local race schedule this week is pretty light and the nearest race to me is about a 3-hour drive, which I am not motivated to do.  So I will enjoy sleeping in for a change on a weekend, and go do some running at local parks and see what kind of "adventures" I can get myself into.  Big grin

       

      Good luck to all those who have events this weekend!

        As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

        Brrrrrrr


        Uffda

          I'm running the HM in Fargo tomorrow. Fargo is where I ran my first ever HM, exactly one year ago. I ran it in 2:16:21. My "A" goal tomorrow is going to be 1:46:21 - that's right a 30 minute course PR. I really hope I can make it happen.

            Thanks for the heads-up on not racing this weekend, Scottydawg. I mostly lurk on the boards but read your RR's every Monday and enjoy them tremendously. I think I would have freaked out if I sat down Monday morning and didn't see anything from you. It's become ritual. Having lost my mom to cancer and my father in law battling the disease now, you are truly an inspiration.

             

            I'm running the Geist Half Marathon Saturday with DW for our first HM. Good luck to all that are racing and enjoy sleeping in Scottydawg!!!

                  10K race in Cliffside Park, NJ to benefit the Diabetes Foundation...hoping to PR, since I've been on a roll lately with the other distances.

                        Not this weekend, but Thursday evening at 6PM.... 5K in Homewood, AL. This is due to the race being cancelled due to weather and rescheduled. Should be interesting to run a race after work on a weekday.

                         

                        Since this is only my 2nd ever race, it shouldn't throw off my "routine" too much Smile

                          Me.  10K.  Firemen at the finish line and FE with Damaris!  Can't go wrong Big grin

                           

                          Have fun out there everyone!!


                          Sloooow.

                            5K tomorrow. I'm actually sick with nerves. It's going to be pretty hot and humid, and I'd hate to be that person in the back of the ambulance, lol.

                              I cannot wait!  Even if we still have no idea where we're going to eat.  Which is important.  Right after the cute firemen.

                                I would say this is more important.
