Way to point fingers without understanding the context, Trent.

Whoa. I thought I was undertrained for this marathon. Dude, check out this log:

I'm the poor bastard. Of course, when Trent takes an image of my log and holds me up as the poster child of the under-trained, he does so without knowing anything about the stress fracture that developed in August, about being unable to run without excruciating pain for the months of September and October, or about trying to recover enough to finish the half I'm registered for in December--much less, the full I'm registered for in January. At this point, I have serious doubts about being able to finish the full in January, but I'm doing what I can. Way to point fingers without understanding the context, Trent.

Troy. Sorry about your stress fracture. I am glad that you are on the road to recovery. That said, urm, hook line and sinker. Now go back and read the rest of the thread. Wink

If in doubt, Troy, take a glance at my log then refresh this thread...

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

This has been the threaded I needed today while running data. Hilarious. Big grin

May be the best thread ever. It's one thing to run a marathon a very few miles but try to imagine running one with only these miles:

I ran a mile and I liked it, liked it, liked it.

This might be the funniest thread I've seen on RA. What was uber funny was I had just looked at someone else's log before I looked at this thread, and then they replied, so I had to keep reading before I figured out what was going on. Had I looked at my log first, I'd been honored to feel as though I were the butt of a joke.

Gotcha.

It should be mathematical, but it's not.

I like Modal's post, except for the fact that it makes me dizzy to scroll by it. But it makes "me" look like I am running some serious miles! MTA: except DAMN I can see that I "cheated" and cut today's run 0.04 short. Wink

You know when I do this and then look at Modal's post, Trent almost seems trained enough.

Heh...right now I should have a white bar. To match that garbage on the ground. Though it is prettier than "November brown."

Some of that white stuff escaped from the state of Michigan this week and made it south of the border. I barely had enough time to pick up all my leaves. Tongue
