Wild, I think if I tried to run 50 miles a week for four weeks I might end up in the hospital!

 

Tet, your daughter's emails gave me a good laugh this morning. Thanks.

 

4.15 extra-slow miles this morning under a gorgeous the full moon.

But you forget--that's only a couple of runs for her. How hard could that be. ;-)

 

 

Just 3.5 easy--ran about 30.4 miles total this weekend (4 races) in 3:53, which is a tich faster than last year.

 

 

the modest one is not mentioning a AG 2nd in 15K and a 1st in the other 3 races!

Stumpy! Yes, just a couple of runs, for sure.

I like hitting that 50 mpw range cuz it feels like a nice place to balance the calories out/calories in thing. Not always easy to do in the winter, but this year I've been doing pretty good with it.

Sounds like a fun gathering and some successful races in FL this past weekend! And yes, we pretty much expect all those AG wins from Aamos. Congrats to Marj for her great race, too!

Yay for keeping the running thing going, LaT! It's so good to see you back here.

So I tried my new Brooks Ghost shoes today. I like them. And I really like that they have a substantial enough tread that I could do most of my run today without my spikes! I carried them along, but it was so nice to run on the path with just shoes. Hard to explain the why's of that, but it felt good. I think my ankle and heel will be happy with the change, and the old Pure Flows are going into retirement with just over 900 miles on them.

5.3 miles today on tired legs.

Holly, we all love ya but, for some reason,

I’m glad you’re not my DD this week.

Tet - which of you is the parent again?

 With Zigalina and all the convenient trails so close, there’s no need for any more excuses to go to Humboldt County country but thanks for letting me know what it is in case I do. 

.

Now if I could just figure out how to add a Newport-Humboldt connection to my occasional travels, . . . to say nothing of New Orleans.

I love the small oysters, BBQ'd and drowning in garlic butter.  Humboldt County is the largest oyster producer in the state:

 

"Humboldt Bay's clean water, its tides and its moderate climate make it the biggest producer of oysters in the state: About 70 percent of the state's oysters are grown in Humboldt Bay. The oyster industry here recently made a major transition that makes it gentler on the bay and more likely to remain as an anchor industry for years to come." (Times-Standard 2009)

.

Rhoonly - good job on the certifications, etc. that’ll allow you to be doing a little flying for work from now on. If there aren’t any eye exam requirements, let me know if you need an observer.

I’m not going to say anything about DD wanting me to stop by the pizza parlor on my way back after a day full of various meetings so I could pick up the pizza she’d ordered and then getting there right on time only to find they didn’t have anything for her because, if I did, . I’d have to explain about calling her cell phone and finding out, of course, it was in my name not hers (after all I was paying for it) and, not only that but I’d probably also have to admit to forgetting the soft drinks.

Dear RA'ers - DD is dealing with my occasional lapses
just fine without your further commentary unnecessarily

supporting her so much from the peanut gallery.

Thank u.
