CNYrunner is headed to the Bay State Marathon in Lowell this weekend. I have a feeling she's going to have a zippy run there. Anyone care to predict her time? I'm thinking 3:17:32 Good luck, Karin! grins, A

You'all can give up right now. She's going 3:19:51. You heard it here first. Bill

I cheated and looked, too, Tramps. But I'm going to guess a 7:40 pace for 3:20:52. It looks like pretty close to IRC for Sunday. Good luck Karin!!!

Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

Mary - no fudge, only honor and glory for nailing the correct time! My prediction? Knowing Karin, I'm going to say 3:19:00 flat. She likes to do things in even increments. Run like the wind, Karin!

I'm in - 3:19:21 - just so that she can beat my PR! Wink

In all seriousness if the weather holds and it is looking real good, I sense a really good run from Karin on a really fast course. I know I'll be keeping tabs...(although I have a grandson's birthday party to go to in the afternoon...she should be done by then). Good Luck Karin...Fly Like The WIND Sorry Jlynne I didn't realize you had said "Run like the wind" already...but what the heck! Hey Mary can we say Ass on this forum? And if we do win fudge, I'll put my order in for PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE right now!! Big grin

OMG!!!!!! Bad enough that I have folded and refolded what I'll plan to wear a bazillion times, hit refresh on the weather forecast page (looks awesome now) about a squillion times, read my training log each night for a month now, insist that I can't walk anywhere much less run, and now fudge is on the line! I haven't had a cookie or a piece of caramel (my favorite) or a potato chip in quite awhile and yelled at Mr. CNYrunner for putting the Halloween Kit Kats on the counter where I could see them! I am deep into taper madness and just love this thread..... Thank you all so much and I'll be hearing your cheers as I trot around Lowell on Sunday. The good luck and speedy wishes mean a great deal to me --even if I am not saying anything about my race target Tongue

. and who might have already guessed. Karin
