Good morning gang. I love the weekend because it's usually either long run or race for me. Today will be a long run. I did 21 last weekend so anything 20 or more is acceptable today. Hope you all have a wonderful day. Be sure to tell us about those runs and races. Smile

Ray

At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.

Easy 10k for me this morning. recovering from some runner's knee and everything is feeling good. No run planned for tomorrow. Now I will HTFU and head to the in-laws for the weekend.

Had planned on a long run this a.m. but ended up being awake most of the night with a sick child - I'm still trying to wake up at this point. I'll get to run after my husband is done his run.

6ish today and 16 tomorrow. Alvin and the Chipmunks is high on today's priority list also. Big grin

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

Still hanging on to a crappy cold. I'm feeling worse instead of better Confused

Just going to rest and resume some running after Chrismas and get rid of this once and for all!

I'm back from my long run. I did a solo 26.2 and played with the virtual partner on my Garmin. I set it for a 4:00 finish (9:09 pace). I finished in 3:49:20 (8:45) with an average HR of 137 (74% HRR). I held a steady pace and felt good to the finish. Just think .... I missed a BQ by 3:21. 3:45:59 is the mark for my AD (55-59). Maybe next time. I'll upload it to MotionBased and post a link if anyone wants to see it. You all would be very proud of my steady pacing. I did have about a 2:00 stop about mile 12 to get a thorn out of my shoe.

At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.

Started running at 10:20 PM last night, covered 23 miles over 3:50, finishing around 2:30 AM. No lights. Big hills, full moon, slight mist. Very very lovely! This course, twice: click

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

That sounds heavenly. Unfortunately, I'd have to adjust my schedule and get acclimated to it before I could run that far, that late at night. Big grin

I got a nap in the evening, that helped. And after I got home, it was an hour and a half before I could get back to sleep. But I slept well Big grin

Nice job mcsolar, russ, and trent. I don't know how you guys do it! Confused

I put in 12 today, but nothing like trent's ups and downs. Shocked

Russ, you amaze me my running friend.

Thank you Rick. For the record, my name is Ray. I see you're in SE Mi. My brother lives in Brighton. I saw another profile of someone who lives in Brighton as well but I can't remember who it was.
