I'm thinking pasta with chicken. The asparagus here has been good lately, so I think I'll pick up a couple bunches of that as well.

I love fresh asparagus.

soooo guess you were carrying a heavy load during your run today....all the bars you ate and all!

go back a couple of pages, I had to cheat a bit to do it

skrtrnr - 2009-10-01 1:12 PM all those posts and not one single TOPpage.

what up with that?  im losing my touch...and perhaps my Queenly status as well.  sigh.


toppage aside, i did get my 10 miler in.  what a trip!  first off, its was butt-ugly cold this morning and i couldnt find my favorite base layer since well its been put away for months and months now.

i made do w some second string apparel.  heading out to stash my stuff along the route.  and then came back, parked and started off.

it was one of those weird runs where i felt great in parts, and just horrible in parts, and then so-so in parts.

i did notice that the Gummi Bears i ate at around mile 6ish got my lower GI in a wad.  seriously.  Gummi Bears???

welcome to my world.  i cant eat any of the packaged gus and gels cuz they totally mess w my system (believe me ive tried just about every brand/flavor out there...)

and now even some of the 'real' stuff isnt working either.  im seriously getting to the point where im at a loss.

the one consolation.  ive gotten to the point where i can drink full-strength GATORADE w/out feeling like im gonna hurl (a little, tiny bit at a time...)

ive been working on that all summer now, cuz i knew they would be serving Gatorade at the 1/2 im doing in NOV.

at least this year i wont have to pack/bring me own, homemade sports drink like i did last year.

maybe they can hook me up intravenously to a PEPTO BISMAL DRIP the entire race.  LOL.

it wasnt my best run.

but it wasnt my worst run either.

like i said, it was good, bad and ugly

all rolled into one.

and MOST IMPORTANTLY....

ITS DONE! and im ON THE BOARD FOR THIS CHALLENGE!!!!!

i make TOPpage.

and mr w. graves isnt around to see it.

he's probably working.

no.  couldnt be working.

when he's working he's here on BT.

he must be on his way home to take his son to football, and then get his run in.

pffft.

stacieb.

love ya BILL

willie05 - 2009-10-01 1:55 PM Sorry to hear the run wasn't so great Stacie.  Hope you can figure that out, and I hope the gatorade will work well for you exactly one month from today!

Nice day today, eh?



I got in 7 miles which included 10 x 1/4 mile intervals with a 1/4 rest interval. 

Does that count as extra credit?

I did...3 miles in the books this morning!

Absolutely! This spring it was really thin and wimpy around here, but lately they've been good and firm. I can't decide if I should steam them or pan-fry them with some portabellos...

oops forgot the edit part....too late.

skrtrnr - 2009-10-01 12:01 PM

i seriously think i sustained an overuse injury.

i may have to cold laser my pointer finger for hitting the submit button so often/ fast!!!!!

THAT was painful.
