Hey, Murph, how about sharing your log with the rest of us. Noticed your location in your profile. My wife grew up not far from you there in Ohio. Met when I was just up the road at Wright Patterson AFB. You're right about not catching P2R. With him in the group, you're right about it not being a competition. I joined the 1500 mile club and I'm already starting to hate that damn pace bunny. He's taunting me already Rest day for me today. Legs were getting a bit sore after 5 straight and the afternoon was dedicated to watching my alma mater choke in the Gator Bowl, blech

Vegas was a great run this year. It really makes you appreciate how big Mandalay Bay is because you get to the corner of it and think, "ALMOST THERE!" ...and then it goes on forever!!! Ran 9k today, freezing in -18ºC/0ºF. Good run though. And I am pretty sure most of the sweat was actually vodka...

Cash, What kind of temps? If it's not too cold a run in the rain is fun, but what to wear is always a delima. Shan, What's the story on the ShanGen to ShanHen? Log question? Is anyone not using this log exclusively? I was using Excel, then switch to SportsTrack. Now I am doing SportsTrack and this log... Not sure if this one imports into SportsTrack? I am coughing up a lung. Considered going to the doctor, but I really want to keep my medical bills down this year and it's probably just a virus that needs to run it's course. After being on vacation for 1 1/2 weeks, I am feeling guility for calling in sick. Said the kids could stay home with me if they take care of me. So far they have made me breakfast (frozen waffles), did the dishes, and tucked me in. They are really sweet kids. I have an impressive 8"x4" bruise on the side my lower leg from the graston. The stiff ache when I would squat down to tie my shoes is gone. BTW, the other time I had graston done was in my calf, and that has not acted up since. Hopeful this will go as well. Where's Erika?

6.2 chilly miles today at around 30F and 30 MPH wind gusts. Felt good though and pushed the pace a bit. As I was getting back, saw people going out in shorts, ugghh. On the log question, I use both Sporttracks and the log on RA. The online log is sort of my "master" and I use sporttracks just for the stuff that is on the Garmin (no treadmill, cross training when/if I do it, etc.). I like the ability to log in my workouts from work (I run at lunch mostly during the week from my office) and can't install any software on my work computer. Plus I love the ability see everyone's log on here. Don't know if you're using the beta of Sporttracks 2.0 but it adds the ability for plugins. Someone has written an elevation correction plug in that fixes the erroneous data that comes off the Garmin. Very nice. Turns out my regular routes from home have about 200-300 feet elevation change from the highest elevation to the lowest. At work, it is more like 60 feet. Neat stuff.

YEAH MR. I!!!!!!! groov - 0F man that's cold! and vodka sweat - man you must have smelled pretty! Cash - you will kick ass in the rain! wear something with a brim. Bugs - I'm getting married in 49 days!!!!!!!!!! I got a little too excited and used part of my soon to be new last name! Remember to push your fluids! Oh and I'm using here mostly. Murph - should i be learning something from my splits? shoudl i be logging them? dgb - i saw someone in shorts today too!!! it's 28 and windy here! those people must be nuts! So instead of my planned 5.5 I did 7.1!!!! I know you thought i was going to say i ran less or not at all but that's right I went 7.1!! even rediscovered a trail i burned out on because now it's like the whole world is open to my running so i took some little offshoots. Was going to run more but had to make that call with 2 miles to get back to the car so I decided to save that path for another day!!! And i'm really hyper in case you couldn't tell by the plethera o' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (man i love running!)

Ran 5 miles today. Last dry day before 4 days of rain. Yes we are fixing to send you all our rain in the next 10 days. High for race day supposed to be 54. More like mid 40s at race time with wind. Bugs dear, my mentor at Beginner Triathlon is from Minneapolis. Am sure you would be welcome to join our online forums.

Shan, Do we get to throw you a party? Dgb, Think I will use SportTracks as my master, unless I figure out how to do multi-sport. I have gotten a little crazy with SportsTrack. I've added all my clothing and log which pants, etc.. I ran in. See if I can keep up double logging. Cash, What's the link? Think I got lost?

Another chilly (relatively) day here on the east coast. Got in about 4.5 easy miles. 26.2 for the week. Sort of poetic (and under 4 hours coincidentally ). Maybe I should take the next two days off just to wrap up the week that way.
