    Balegas and Feetures

       

      1) I know we've talked about this before, but what are your favorite socks? (I should have taken notes when we discussed previously)

       

      Feetures (cushioned).

      Smartwool are also good, especially in cold/wet, but get holes pretty quickly.

        I just ran 13 miles on the freakin treadmill. Didn’t think I had it in me.

          That's a damn hard workout ROS!   No wonder you couldn't finish it! He/she trying to kill you??? I use to do similar workouts back in the day peaking before a Half, but not 10 miles of pace work! I'd do 8 in a 16, like 3mp,2Half,2-10K,1-5K, on the way back. If you cut down to 3,2,2,1, you could complete it, the rest easy. I mean, you are not doing 50MPW are you, or trying to bust a 1:30 half?

           

          Ha. Neither to both. Last week was a shade over 40mpw, this week I was at about 34mpw. And no, just trying to break 2:00 for the half.

            Upper right of the RA Web page , click Options, then the botton-right "tile", Manage my activities. Click on "Run", and there you can customize, add, remove types of runs, and choose the color you want for the different types.

             

            THANK YOU!!!!!!

              I lost my rama

                ROS - Wrightsocks Coolmesh II for me.  Never turned back.  And that's a heck of a workout.... I never do progression runs, probably because they scare the bejeezus out of me :-)

                 

                Shortii - Great job getting that 13 in!

                  ROS:  Socks:  Winter - - Wright socks when it is wet.  I'm really liking the Darn Tough Vertex 1/4 I picked up just before RWOL kicked us out (Bread and LM recommended them highly).
