Dave, I forgot to mention how I've already talked about you to my running group- as in "I'm going to run a 10 mile race and a friend of mine is going to pace me to run a 1:20" None of them want to come as they're all in lazy mode of running. So, there you have it, you have to come. Kevin told me about this race and it's only $5.00- low key- DCRR race- no T-shirt. paste run... that's a new one to me. Hey Shan, I love when you post about your running as your status on facebook. It keeps me motivated. P2R- Your FIL followed you in the car? And you didn't jump in? That's amazing and very tough. Bugs, good for you on getting the run in. Your MIL sounds like my Mom. This is the first Christmas where we didn't have company and we didn't go anywhere. We saw lots of family in the past three weeks but nobody was here this week. So, I actually thought the other day, that this is helping my running. Erika, Murphy, Brian, Jeremy, Cash and anyone else I missed: hi! I ran 21 miles today and my log show 30 miles for the week total... now that's sad.

Bugs - you are funny! But good job doing what you needed to do! And yeah I'm glad they are going well! Really all of my runs are going well - i just forget to post about them haha maybe when they are longer I will remember. Pace - I thought you might have haha Nice emoticon! Kimmie - glad I help someone! And the paste thing is a Cash term MTA: well he posted this site anyway. Because I was always "racing" my EZ runs.

Shan and Kimmie great jobs on your runs. Those are huge miles. Kimmie, any time your long run is more than one third of your weekly mileage, you risk injury. You have enough of a base that you can do it a few times and not worry about it too much. But do it often and look out trouble. Your heart, lungs and muscles will probably be fine, but the connective tissue needs to be built up and that takes more time to accomplish, and it breaks down faster.

I actually know this and didn't plan to have such low weekly miles, that's why I commented on it. This week was unusual for me with busyness and resting from a sore knee. I hopefully won't have another week like this.

Cash, that's not just eating paste, if I understand the term correctly... That's plain stupid. I'd rather run 9.3 miles at -27F... oh, wait! I did that today! Well at least the last couple miles were at -27. The first 7 were at -5 to -25.... No biggie. Here's proof http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0pjyptCUys

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Man, that's awesome. The potential 40 F temps at the start of Disney are going to be positively balmy after that!
