Bugs the Cheerleader (Read 430 times)


Bugs

    I'm taking the DNS. Leg pain stucks and I want to get this recovery business over with. But I'm going to cheer you guys on. I'm hoping to be around mile 20. I'm going to have a sign, maybe "HTFU Stinkin Swamp Runners". I will let you know.  When you guys have bib numbers or what you're wearing I'd like to know, will help me find you.

          Sorry you're not running. That is why I don't like preregistering. Wish you a speedy recovery.

            Tough to train so hard and well to have this happen.  I wish you a speedy recovery, and a smashing PR on the next one that comes around.  


            My wife and 2 daughters as well as the in-laws will be near mile 20 also!

              Sorry to hear about that Bugs....hopefully it's a speedy recovery so you can get back at it soon. 

               

              I may need all the motivation I can get....not sure what to expect on my first marathon.

                Sorry to hear that Bugs Sad  I'll be watching for ya at mile 20. I'm usually not that responsive (or observant) at that point in a race though so don't be offended if I don't acknowledge you. I'll buy ya a beer later Wink

                  Thanks, this sucks. Right now I've even stopped XTing out of desperation for my legs just to get to normal. Going to throw rocks at anyone who tells me I can still maybe run it. My quads, calves, ITB, and knees all are screwed. Time to cut my losses.

                   

                  I do plan to see you guys on the course. Candice I totally understand about being in the zone when running. Someone cheered me on two years ago at lemon drop hill, while I flew on by them, it really helped to see someone.

                    When you come to the end of the road, invariably it involves throwing rocks.  Nothing like throwing rocks in the ocean / lake!  It is refreshing! 

                     

                    I hope you're feeling better and recover soon!

                      Sorry you won't be able to be running Saturday. 

                       

                      I just got my bib and stuff today, I am number 4303.  I will be wearing a blue singlet and I am hoping to finish around 2:58 but I don't think that is going to happen.

                       

                      Get well.

                        Bugs is running.  She can't do the spectator-thing.

                              I signed up for runner tracking on my phone so that I will know what my official finish time is from Fitgers Big grin
