I did mooseman last year - the frickenest coldest water i ever have been in. It hurt to get in there. Beautiful race though.  How is it? I was looking at it yesterday as maybe my first HIM. Is the bike portion a tough one? And the run? |

Elite 3595 Quebec, Canada | Subject: RE: E.V.I.L. Running Reapers - Halloween Run Challenge runnerx - 2009-10-04 11:57 AM Ok, I'd have to say a successful half marathon yesterday, especially considering just over a week ago I was unable to run at all and thought I was shut down for the year. It was humid, but at least no rain and no t-storms. best part was that my gf ran it and since this was kind of a stretch distance for her, I wanted to be part of it. Sure enough, we ran together the entire race. Both of us pushing each other at times. Perfect scenario. The only bad stretch was after I took a Gu around mile 10, then hit a hill and my stomach started to get queasy. So a short walk, and then we were good again. Our last mile was the fastest of the day! 4 more weeks till NYC marathon...time will tell if it's in the cards or not. I'll aim for an 18miler this coming weekend, then a 20, then 15ish, and then it's race time. Not the optimal training plan, but it is what it is... Keep running everyone! Good job! |

The bike had a nasty hill on it, but otherwise ok. The run wasn't bad. The problem was the temperatures. The oly on Saturday had that cold water, then for the Half on Sunday, the air temp just got extremely hot. Strange. But, i would do it again. |

Long run tomorrow. Not real long really, around 6 miles or so. I don't know, no race to train for and I am a bit lost. Lost? Wait.... Let me take out that cattle prod again. I knew I shouldn't have packed it up.... |

Master 2146 East Side of the Bay | Subject: RE: E.V.I.L. Running Reapers - Halloween Run Challenge Damn I feel downright domestic. Just got back from the grocery store. Going to put a roast in the oven to cook while I go swim at 4:30. Hope the family doesn't think this will become the norm. Pork roast was even on sale.....roasting it with sweet potatoes and onions....think I'll put a little maple syrup in there too. |
