    Speaking of LTrain ... I think Nader should go ahead and add him to the list of hopefulls. Half at the Hamptons, Feb 20.

    Oh now he's got "people."

      1:30 is a nice goal, but as a 122 minute half-marathoner I have to settle down.  Tight lips

        Just tell people you ran a one-twenty-two half.  Smile

          Looks like your first. If you put in the work, you will see good things.

              Define "hopeful".  Like the odds being roughly the same as pulling a monkey out of my ass?  If so, by all means, sign me up.

                  Hey if I'm on there you have to put Greg_C and rcuch on there.  That will make them happy, they'll thank me later.  You guys have done the math on this, right?  6:52 pace for 13.1 GD miles? 

                   

                    Yeah but we still have like 50 weeks left.

                      I see I was on the list and now I'm off.  You can put me back on, Nads.  If I can't run 1:30 I can't run 3:09.  Plus it will be awesome to crash and burn in public.

                          I'll ante up. I don't expect to really try until the fall.

                          I can't even run 13.1 a week now but I love to go down in flames when I fail.

                          I'll need a decent stretch of training.

                                You need what? A 68 second improvement from last fall? How can you not try on a course like this?
