Master  6834      Englewood, Florida |  Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes)Originally posted by switch Originally posted by Asalzwed Originally posted by cdban66 Originally posted by Artemis Originally posted by cdban66 Good day all, I hope you are all doing outstanding today. I perused a few pages back and came to the conclusion that you all need help. Here is the end of my race this weekend: Took you long enough to figure that out.... Yeah, I may not be the brightest crayon in the box. You don't de-wedge. Just let er ride. This Betty character is getting a nasty e-mail for discriminating in the sizing categories. Yeah! This!! Just like your thong, man, c'mon. Chris, maybe it's just a little too soon for us to be throwing this out as a possibility. I'll let it go, for now... I just don't want to be racing and have someone ask if i have Pekingese in my shorts. |
Who wants to see men racing in mankini's? Don't you realize how slow it would be to have to stop to de-wedge every few steps???? While I am partial to blue (and a pic of me in a women's dress is reportedly in the dark recesses of the internet) I will not be wearing anything by Betty Designs with cute flowers on it. I'm 6'2" and after checking the sizing chart, she does not have anything pretty that'll fit me.| 2013-07-16 11:46 AM in reply to: Richardsdrr |

Basically checked out for two days. Family get-together, long ride with DH, afternoon at pool with friends...lots of fun but not much down time. I hope we get to do these rides almost every weekend. Lots of fun and they make me feel quite accomplished. Yesterday was 49 miles over the mountain and....well, back over the mountain. Taking today off the bike and just doing a run tonight. Here's a couple of pics from yesterday- You both look so cute and so in love!! hahaha! Thanks...9 years married and it only feels like 20 lol...we just celebrated our 9th anniversary too! Totally understand that feeling. |
We're in monsoon season so the start was really humid and DH really wasn't feeling it, but we got to our turn-around and he said he was okay to go back over. Yay!| 2013-07-16 11:54 AM in reply to: cdban66 |

| Seattle | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) After running the milk mile I have a very strong desire to run a non-milk mile. I am kind of running out of time and track meets due to my Oly coming up and everything. Likely I will only be able to do 1 more meet and MAYBE 2. Should I A. Run another 5000 (hopefully with properly counted laps) B. Run the mile C. Run the 3000 D. Run the mile then run the 5000 |

The mile is going to make me feel like I want to die, I already know this. I could go into that 5000 just accepting it's not gonna be stellar. Meh. I don't need to decide now. Although, tomorrow is the Subway T&F games. I *Could* run the mile then. It would mean that I am skipping a track practice in it's place though. Hmmmmm. |

Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) Salty, saw your comment about warming up before my 5k. I agree that it's something I need to do. If the race starts at 7 pm, when do I do warm up? I'll probably do about 10 minutes (is that too much?), but there is down time between finishing a warm up and starting race. Not sure how you manage that. |

I'm not entirely sure but I should be somewhere in that ballpark What was your guess? I just double checked your logs, White Center 5K at 6:11's is the best I saw. Based on that I was around 5:45 - 5:50. But the more I think about it, you do have an ability to shut everything out and suffer, which would bode well for a mile. So, I'm starting to think you may be able to go under your 5:40, probably by a few seconds. 5:37 but you'd have to commit with everything you got. |

I'll probably do about 10 minutes (is that too much?), but there is down time between finishing a warm up and starting race. Not sure how you manage that. Well, what have you noticed in training? You said that you usually feel warmed up a mile in? Is that accurate? If that is the case, I would run a mile (20-30 minutes before) and then, just before it starts do a few strides and call it good.
Just for your reference, I run anywhere from 2-4 miles to warm up for a 5K, usually 45 minutes before or so. Then I do 2-5 strides, just before the competition starts |

It's really hard to say just because of this whole triathlon training thang. I definitely don't have the run mileage or focus to "exceed expectations" |
