BadDawg, I have.
E.J.Greater Lowell Road RunnersCry havoc and let slip the dawgs of war!May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your SPF30, may the rains fall soft upon your sweat-wicking hat, and until you hit the finish line may The Flying Spaghetti Monster hold you in the hollow of His Noodly Appendage.
havent been up to Lowell for that one yet, but I have done 3 of the Wednesday Night 5Ks held by the Mystic Runner's on Wednesday nights. And you arent going to get much flatter than the course around the lake in Wakefield (and it's much closer for me), but some day I'll try to make it up there - what nights do they have them on?

"I've been following Eddy's improvement over the last two years on this site, and it's been pretty dang solid. Sure the weekly mileage has been up and down, but over the long haul he's getting out the door and has turned himself into quite a runner. He's only now just figuring out his potential. Consistency in running is measured in years, not weeks. And over the last couple of years, Eddy's made great strides" Jeff 14 Jan 2009
And I spent so much time on my deluxe signature and my RA user group and scattering Good Times posts across the site...
My bad - so to make you feel better I went and clicked the link and checked out the site. So to win I need to come the week before the "Sandbaggers Special" and walk the race, and then come during SS week and run my hardest???? Seems easy enough.
Started following the board sometime during that Irish Bar Series. Kind of got the racing bug doing that. It may have been something you wrote about the series during your Hynes race report that convinced me to give it a shot. Although, I ran one race in the series last summer so I knew about it. No worries though, come June, I'll be done with it due to Tuesday night lax games.
Jay, I hope you weren't serious about packing it in tonight after not besting your previous time. Keep going til June, only 1 more month till your lax starts up anyway. Who am I going to pace off of? Anyway, come back next week, join us at the table, I'll buy you a beer, and join the last ones leaving group.

I've taken this to the flat fast stuff and my times are dropping like crazy. No speedwork but these weekly 5K's that started in April. Last year's 5k PR on this course was 20:29, and a 20:15 on a faster course.
