Just wondering what we did to loose our MaEcono? I was thinking of youn oh lovely Woods Lady just the other day when my run took me in a woody area. I can't wait to go back to your neck of the woods to explore your great mountail roads. Keep running maEcono and keep us posted here, OK?

I'm here, I'm here! Still poking around in the various groups, and Econo said to not be a pest. Still just learning how to use RA. I really like RA, because it keeps me feeling more involved. Also, I can ask questions if I like. Plus, I snoop on many of you almost every day. Hey, I am very proud, and have to brag, because I did my first 8K - longest distance every for me last Sat. You can see my account on my log. Econo had to "go look at cars" , so I was there with DD1, and DGS4. My pace wasn't my very best, but it was a longer distance. However, since then I have been just generally tired, and just pulling out of that. Two days ago, I did my C25K deal, and will do at least that very soon today, maybe take tomorrow off, and be back on the program on Sat. I will probably do the Eugene 5K the day before the Marathon, and want to at least make my PR. Will you be in Eugene? And let me know when you will be down here. Thanks for giving me the push to get out there today. Woods Lady tetsujin Hum, the photo is so small, I can't tell if it is Japan, England, or Washington DC. Econo use to just run for the heck of it ever since I remember. Don't know if she did any in Japan or China, though. I know the Japanese are famous for their blossom festivals. Hey, I can't get your log to come up. Any reason?

tetsugin 50K Holy Moley! Best of luck on that . I bet it is really fun to go such a long distance. What an adventure! How long will it take? Where is Mt. Si? Probably a dumb question - I should just look it up on Google. Yes, your log would be interesting. We could see how a person trains for such a massive project. Well, Econo took for ever to get the PHD, so maybe she spent her time running around that pretty square. She kept changing topics for her disertation. Do you teach there? Woods Lady

Econo, did you really say that? Tsk Tsk Tsk! Post often, Woods Lady! We love to hear from you. And Tetsujin doesn't train. He just runs races. Many of us are still trying to figure out how he does it.

yay savery econo. lucky, lucky but, huh, there's a rule about overposting? Next thing ya know, there'll be a rule against overtraining. mamacono - I'd done a three-miler up to the top of Mt. Si about ten years ago (it's like econo's butte-to-butte in elevation) and, for all these years, couldn't believe there was a Mt. Si Ultra too, especially so early in the running year. Then, when i found out last year it's on the easy-going rails-to-trails grades along the floor of Snoqualmie Valley, i gave it a run/walk try. Dq'ed at 29 miles but hope to get to the 50K mark this time. However, believe me, since I'm just doing it for training for upcoming ultras this summer, my log to date, with only two runs in February and March each and tapering all of this month, is not very interesting. ps - I tried to teach there but they exiled me to an outlying campus so I went back to pretending to be a lawyer.

when I lived in Seattle, I loved hiking Mt. Si. Mt. Si is even featured, briefly, in this month's Runners World. I think it's in that Rave Run feature? Beautiful area.

Wow - I was looking at that exact picture today at lunch, thinking how incredibly beautiful it was.

Hey, you did it! The log is viewable! Nice work, and your training is marvelous, certainly not a "drop in the bucket." I don't think I'll do the Eugene marathon (am planning on the half), but I have a habit of jumping into things at the last moment. I'll email you with the social details after they firm up.
