Thank you all for all the encouragement!! Manatees were totally on my mind (especially with all the hot piglets surrounding me)!

Way to go Jo!  Sounds like you had a blast!  Congrats on giving it all you had, on only 2 weeks notice!  Hope you enjoyed your 'recovery' bevvies

CONGRATULATIONS JO!

I'm actually still so blown out from the swim that I can't even really write the report ...

It was like getting whacked with cold wet cement from every direction for two hours? That's really about all I have to say ... oh, and post lots of hot piglet pictures. I mean, that's all it needs to be, right?

I'm reeeaaaaaally tired. A gecko ran down my bed and I said, Meh. I even took a picture of it. Now that's worrisome!

Dudes like Chicks that go for it!  Sleep well your Yanitness, you've earned it.

Well I'm out...since I am NOT going for it re: 30 mile bike ride I'm NOT doing

Speaking of dudes and chicks, did you ever HTFU with that nurse or doctor or whatever she was? 

Asalzwed - 2012-07-10 1:38 PM Ah man, several people have come to my desk today to talk to me about running (randomly) and now I am super nervous for the marathon. 

If you go on a leisurely 30 mile group ride with your friends I think that will calm the nerves a little, just sayin'......

And BTW, I have an appointment next week with my Ortho doc.  If you HTFU and do that ride, I'll HTFU and ask her to lunch.

*rubbing eyes in disbelief and shock*  wow, that's some serious run mileage!  I probably haven't run that in my lifetime let alone in 7 months!!!  You are my running idol!!! *genuflecting reverently*

Seriously cool, both the seal pup and the view!!

Good! You're getting the slow and the nervous out of your system. All is well and exactly as it should be.

So, talk to me about running.

Congrats on signing up for Rev3 Sarasota Half, Ann-Marie!! Now someone look for a vaccine for me before this signing up for halves bug spreads my way, yikes!

Off to read the newly posted RRs of Jo and Reece.

Yanti, please get some well-deserved, well-needed rest.  Let your furry critters like Biscuit deal with the geckos.

fffffffffffffffuuuuuu....I don't normally get this nervous. 

What would you like to know about running, Yanti dear. Clothing IS optional. You don't even need shoes. 

Great job, Reece!  Third place on little training is pretty impressive!

I had to look up genuflecting 

Well, you run a lot, you get better. I'm trying to see how good I can get. 

Thanks though, seriously. Not TOO many people realize what kind of commitment it takes to get that many miles in. While I generally prefer to be under the radar, it's nice when people get it.

You just need a pre-race beer to calm your nerves. 

So I just looked at my logs.  You have run 4X as many hours as I have this year.  Even if I ran 4X as much, I would still be 600km (360mi) behind you!!!!  Remember how we were talking about doing a race together...ummmmm, maybe I ride my bike and you run?

You know I'm all about the clothing-optional! Sports bra isn't optional for running. Although I suppose I could run for a short distance holding them in with my arms. I'd look kinda funny though. (As if I wouldn't look funny enough running naked down the street)

So what did you decide about hydration-bearing?

Yanti (and Salty, apparently), if you don't like running in clothes you can come to my part of PA for the Bouncing Buns 5K held at a local nudist area.  They allow racers to wear as much or as little as they like.  No photographs are allowed (unless you are photographing yourself) and they post results as anonymously as possible.  It was about 3 weeks ago, I think, so you can plan on it for next year, LOL!
