My goal is 2:30
BRING IT!!!
Robert, I am cheering for you! Good luck.
Pad, I glanced at your log, you have the training to complete the half, don't sweat it. I had way less training for my first half and I survived, so I know you will too.
Jimmy, I busted out laughing about the shoes on your hands. Damn, it's still funny!
Jack, happy birthday to the Mrs.
Stone, welcome, stick around.
I'm up from my nap, have a few errands to run, then come back home to rest. My feet are sore, so I'm thinking I'll need to change my plan for tomorrow's half.
on my way to badass
Wow, thanks for all the warm welcomes!
I too have all the HP films. DS (8yo) is a fan. We are working on Tolkien next. I'm reading The Hobbit to him.
Four miles means I can start a training program designed to help me race better. I have done a few 5ks. My last one, at the end of September, made me think someone mis-measured the course. I was faster than I expected. On my 4 miler, I beat my 3 mile pace by a second How did that happen? Maybe hill work does help.
I've got a race with my family on December 21. 5k holiday race. Hopefully a small one. I'm hoping my kid will get a kick out of people in costume. Husband already said no to any kind of decoration. I'm thinking about striped elf tights to go under my running skirt. And a striped knitted hat. What say you penguins?
Go Robert!
Still waiting for the perfect race picture. 5K PR-33:52 , 10K PR 1:11:16, First HM 2:42:28

Return To Racing
Chevy dealer opened at 8:00 and we were on the road at 8:30 with a brand new relay for our lights. It was a challenge on a Friday rush hour finding the running store in Nashville for packet pickup, but we found it about 2 miles east of downtown. Had a nice pasta dinner at Demo's and walked around Broadway picking out some bars for tomorrow. Also going to Ryman Auditorium tomorrow. Looks like a chilly start to our race tomorrow, but should be a great day.
See y'all !!!
