Chanticleers Team Thread (Sept Run Challenge) (Page 13)

Today sucks.  The foot/ankle started hurting about 2 hours after the race yesterday.  Ice didn't help.  Massage didn't help.  It's a little better tonight, but not like it was.

1.1 mile to go guys...2 days.  I'm sure I'll get it done.

One week until the tri.

Got 6.2 miles in as part of the Olympic race Sunday.   I was a finisher!  Really happy with the 10k time as this was only the second time I had run that far and first time in a triathlon.   My left knee and whatever muscle is behind your ankle bone was really hurting by the midway point.   Going to have to get out the anatomy chart and see what it's called.   

A day and a half left for everyone to get their mileage in.  Finish strong fellow Chanticleers!

Congratulations on the race!!  And you changed your name.  I was confused at first. 

Sounds like your achilles tendon in your ankle.  That hurts on me sometimes.  Lots of stretching helps prevent the pain and will help with the pain now.

Yeah, I need to figure out a decent username, but wanted to put my 'normal' one here for now.  When I first signed up at BT I didn't know it was a forum site so just used one of my alternate login names thats usually not taken.   I should have changed my avatar at the same time and really confused everyone

I'll check on achilles tendon information but I thought that was more on the back of the leg, whereas where I feel the pain is on the inside right behind the round ankle bone.   From having my gait videotaped during a shoe fitting, I slightly overpronate with my left foot only so this makes perfect sense why it would occur here.  I just need to figure out specifics on it.

Week 4 Results

* NADS RULE once again!

* Tomorrow is the last day!!  Come on everyone, get as many miles toward your goal as you can!!

(What am I saying!  I have a few more myself - which I will get done - I won't let you down Okras!)

* Remember that 100% is the highest you can go - unless there is a tie for 1st; then we'll look at additional miles run over the goal.

* Remember, log your miles by tomorrow night (Tuesday), Captains will report on Wed, and I'll post final results on Thursday.

* Please look over the spreadsheet for mistakes or omissions.  Thanks!!!

* BTW - there are some running ANIMALS in this challenge.  I'm impressed.

It'll get fixed in the final one, so there's no need to bother changing it now.  If anything, that'll give us an extra boost.   

Wow!  Everyone's doing great!  #2 with a bullet...

Congrats everyone on such a great challenge.  I'll be working on my last mile over the next few hours...wish I was sleeping...12-hour shift coming up in a few hours.

Artemis - 2008-09-30 7:45 AM I got up to run this morning but it was pouring, so I went back to bed.  I'll run after work to finish up even if it is still raining. 

Back to bed???  Sheesh!   Running in the rain is supposed to be fun, although I guess not if it's dark and cold in the morning.

How's everyone else doing on miles?  My plan was to take most of this week off as race recovery/rest, but if we need it I'll go get 4 miles in later today or tonight.

I assumed the 100% goal was for the team summary and not based on individual scores. 

Either way,  great job on everyone getting finished up and meeting their goals or as close as possible with all the aches and injuries!
