Hi Guys!

I'm back from San Fran! How's everyone doing?

I woke up with a sore throat

Welcome back! How was your trip? It seems to be the time of year for sore throats and colds. I hope to stay healthy until November 3 after the NYC mary, after that I can let myself break down and get sick.

Unexpected TOPPAGE!

LazyMarathoner - 2008-10-18 7:34 AM Good morning Zipp, I should have known you'd be up!

Ha, I slept in and crawled out of bed around 7:45 today! So much for an early start on my run. I need to go shopping for a dress to wear to a wedding in a couple weeks too.

Dress shopping is either incredibly fun or incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

Yeah. I love being thin (was once over 200 lbs....) but sometimes I can find my size but not a style I like and other times it's a style/color I like but not my size.

Way to go on the goal! I was looking at the spreadsheet last night and we seem to be right on track as a team. After my 20 tomorrow, I'll be about 70% of the way and finishing shouldn't be a problem unless I get further injured.

Wow, congrats on the weight loss! That is life changing for sure. I only lost 20 pounds and it made shopping an entirely new experience for me.

Good evening everybody,

Just finished up my portion of the challenge.... Don't want to brag or anything, just glad that I got it done before leaving on Sunday. Just told boyfriend too that I completed my 25 miles. He was surprised more than anything... When we talked about the challenge, he said I should put down a goal of 20 miles. HAH! I guess telling me that I can't do something works good for me too.

SA WEET!! Great job!

Good gracious a second tread and already 600+ posts. So what is the prize for chattiest group which you all will for sure be receiving? Also, how many times do you think you will lap us (zombies) posting wise before this challenge is over.?. I'm thinking definantly twice but could you do it three time?

Hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy all the football games on tv!! (read watch football don't run watch football don't run watch football don't run)

Is this a side challenge? bwa hahahahahahahaha

LazyMarathoner - 2008-10-17 8:24 PM I had to make a quick stop at the local to avoid losing all of my friends. They already think I'm nuts so I have to be careful. So after two small (ok, maybe not so small) beers, I'm headed out for 4-5 depending on how I feel. I realize that makes me a horrible triathlete, but I'm not much of one anyway these days so I can't do much more damage. Hopefully I'll be reporting back in an hour or so about what a good run I had! I'm not expecting it to be my fastest, but it will be nice. We have perfect crisp fall weather in NYC. I might wear my first long sleeves of the season.

Beer first. Run second. I see you've got your priorities in order.

I do try to keep my priorities straight. I thought it would be appropriate to wear my favorite running shirt this evening as well:

You might need Drunkey Monkey with that shirt.

So I think I will hang back with the 4:30:00 pacer in the beginning of the marathon and see how I feel after a few miles. I hope I have the energy to speed up and not slow down.

TOPPAGE!!!!

You feel good about that pace?

Nice thouht but I'm only primed for a half mary. Haven't mentally gotten to the point of going out for 15-20 mile runs in training. Big hurdle.

We will see tomorrow. As long as nothing happens I should be alright. My legs have felt tired that last 4 days, but I think Zipp said it best, "Taper Madness." The funny thing is half and full marathons are the same course through mile 12, and I think laura will be ahead of me through that point since I will need to pace myself a litle better since I am going twice as far.

You feel okay for the 20?

Yeah, as good as I can all things considered. I've missed a lot of training in the past 10 weeks due to my broken shoulder but in a lot of ways, I'm better off than I have been for past marathons (told you I don't train properly). The 20-miler is critical for getting me through the mary and I'll also use it to finally settle my goal time. Can't wait to taper!
