SWBKRUN fast, furious, and closed (Page 271)

Hi Ho Peeps!  It's that time again.  Who is committed to bringing it home this weekend?  With so many PRs the last few weeks the pressure is on. Give us your race scoop!

And for the rest of us, what's the one thing you've been doing during the OS that has helped keep you going, energized you or rocked your world?  A new eating plan? a favorite new sport?....lay it on us!

Good Luck, Linda and Jeff!  I'll be sending you lots of positive thoughts this weekend. 

Have a great race, Sam!

Rachel- Enjoy your trip to the Berkshires.  I grew up out there and loved going to see JT at Tanglewood every summer.  That sounds like such a fun show. 

Nothing rocking my world these days.  I am reading Monique Ryan's Sports Nutrition for the Endurance Athlete with hopes that I can get my nutrition in check by Apr-May. This is one area where I am really struggling.  I like the book so far but does anyone else have a recommendation?

Kim- how are you going about finding a new saddle?  Trial and error? Outside of measuring my own sit bones, I haven't found any other way of narrowing it down. 

That's pretty much the best way to do it.  Everyone's likes and dislikes are different.  A lot of people like the Cobb saddles so that is usually a good place to start.

If anyone is not sure between the Cobb and the Adamo then I would suggest the Cobb first as they have an unbelievable guarantee on their saddle.  If I remember right it is a use it for 90 days and if you don't like it, you can return it  - no questions asked.  Just my two cents...

Thanks, Suzy, but I'm not racing this weekend. I can see the confusion though, as it seems I am doing a marathon+ every weekend

OMG - so nervous!  Eating everything I see like my body knows.  Is this how you all feel before an Ironman.

All I keep thinking is HOLY SH*T 50 miles is a really long way.  I think my feet are gonig to fall off.

To Echo Trevor, Go SAM, Go!!!!  That is just plain nuts!!!  I am thinking Holy Sh*t just for 50k let alone 50 miles!  Awesomeness!
