Sorry guys, gotta support my team! And no offense to any of you non-Vikings fans. The whole state of MN has been lighting up purple to support the Vikes for the game today. There's been a renewed sense of hope! Any other football watchers out there today?SRD here, and I'm grateful! Mentally gearing up for 6 straight days of running this week!
Are we there, yet?
We're green down here.
Probably an unscheduled rest day. Have a pain on the bottom of my heel that hurts every time I push off. It comes and goes, some days I'm fine and others I hobble.
2024 Races:
03/09 - Livingston Oval Ultra 6-Hour, 22.88 miles
05/11 - D3 50K 05/25 - What the Duck 12-Hour

Morning! I have 8 miles at some point today.
KC, congrats on the F3 race as well!

UPS did not deliver my watch on Friday. They did not deliver it on Saturday either, so I had to use my old 620 today, and I am pretty sure that I am NOT going to miss it. Because the stupid thing shut down on me mid-run AGAIN and reset itself minus a quarter mile, or maybe it was .2 mile -- I was at a stoplight, and I was at 13.13, and then when it turned on again it was at 12.93. I am displeased.
And then I had to run a little bit extra so my watch should say at least 16. LOGIC.

because i never shut up ... i blog

Must be the latest software update - self correcting GPS watches.

I live in Patriots territory. While I am a Rams fan, the Patriots are my #2, though there is a large gap between 1 and 2 for me. The Patriots insanity around here does not lessen at all from year to year, and folks don't get tired of all the winning. The fans are rabid.
I am headed out for my run now and my legs are tired. This may get ugly. BRB!

3.6 miles for my 36th! Threw in a few strides which made me laugh because they were so slow.
I live with a patriots fan so its inescapable. My 4 yo thinks every Sunday is Tom Brady day I'm from PA so a Steelers fan.
Great race, KC!

This made me laugh. Mostly b/c, as you may know, the Vikings are so disappointing to watch so much of the time and we've never had to get tired of all the winning. B/c we hardly ever win. We have die hard fans here, too, but I'm sure not to the caliber of Pats fans!
8 TM miles done.
SRD for me, besides this 12 hours of work nonsense. Thanks for the congrats yesterday! It was a nice race, I thought the course was kind of boring but flat and fast which was nice. Started with the 1:40 pacer so I wouldn’t go out too fast and left him after a couple miles, felt good til around mile 8 but managed to keep a good pace. Back to the grind tomorrow
im a bears fan, I hate the Vikings. But I hate the patriots more.
KC - nice job yesterday! It was a nice day for a HM. That’s awesome you barely looked at your watch, I look at mine too much
I lost my rama
Uh oh, it's ROS vs WC tonight. I'm not picking sides.
13 this morning.
3/17 - NYC Half
4/28 - Big Sur Marathon DNS
6/29 - Forbidden Forest 30 Hour
8/29 - A Race for the Ages - will be given 47 hours
I had a nice run. I kept the effort somewhere between easy and moderate, just to start getting the endurance back up. 10 miles at 7:43 avg pace on a hilly route. I swear, any 10 mile run from my house in any direction is going to be harder than almost any HM course I do.
I remembered that I had a $25 gift card to the LRS that I got as an AG award last summer so I put it toward a pair of Ghost 10. Gave them a test run of 14 miles today. They feel a bit lighter than the Ghost 9. I liked them.
Good to hear! Although with all the 9s I have in inventory, I might end up going straight to 11.

We watched The Commuter in the theaters (aka, Taken 7). A good thriller.
Finally got a text about the office. I have to report briefly tomorrow to shut down my cases (give them to
the one that will be working, continuing hearings, etc)
