OK...2 races done...5k and 5mile. The10 k will have to come from my long run this weekend, which is a mere week before my HM!!! So, question is, I am running 20k this Sunday, do I record the time for the first 10k, the second 10k, or say, k-5 through k-15?. Shouldn't be much difference seeing as I am trying hard to run at a steady pace start to finish.
Here's a funny note. A few people at my work have said I have been walking around the office like I am in a rush all the time lately! I figure I am just too into the 'gotta do a PR' routine!

Daddyo - Happy birthday! Smile

You can take you 10K split from whichever portion you want to... or just take your 20K time and cut it in half. Be careful at the office! If you trip over someone it might slow you down! Clowning around

Hmmm...I wish there were a 10 mile division, since I am planning to run 12 or so on Sat., but no shorter runs in the meantime... k

I distinctly remember reading you saying that you *weren't* going to race this month... something about injuries and overtraining... To quote my favorite gorilla, "Frickin' runners!" Wink

See, that's why I was thinking a 10 mile category would be good...then I could just take the 10 mile split from my long run this weekend and apply it. Big grin

Sigh. Sign me up for the 10 mile, too, por favor. But no more adding races. I'm all out of days. Smile

Monday midnight to get them done, right? And it's gonna be a slooooooow 10 miles. Frickin' runners indeed.

I'll call you names, GorillaMan! What are you thinking, trying to run four races in a row??? I thought only the Silverbacks had the overload of testosterone! I put the fourth one up so someone could participate in one race... not so you could hurt yourself! This is not, repeat NOT a machismo contest! I'll give you a few days to reconsider. I can't stop you, but really... it's a stupid idea. Don't do it! Can I make myself any clearer? There will be another "Virtual" race next month... save your hamstrings for then, ok? I'm NOT putting your name down on the 10 mile race. Nope. NOT going to do it! Janell

Heck, no...I'm just glad I can count something this weekend (since I think I skipped-out on the VR last month). I'm not running Friday or Sun., so that works well. Smile
