Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I had my last race of the year today - an HM. Short story: 1:41:08 for a new PR - 3 minutes and change faster than the one I did a month ago. I am way happy with my time and don't think I left much out on the course. The weather was great - sunny, cool and hardly any wind. RR is here. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() dcon - 2011-11-27 12:06 AM Wow Dan!! Awesome job! Congratulations!!!I had my last race of the year today - an HM. Short story: 1:41:08 for a new PR - 3 minutes and change faster than the one I did a month ago. I am way happy with my time and don't think I left much out on the course. The weather was great - sunny, cool and hardly any wind. RR is here. I don't have anything else to say, but I just want to try some fancy paragraph formatting I lose two house guests today. That makes me sad. My cousin (Dave's side) is a college student in Oregon but graduates this year, so it's likely his last thanksgiving with us. Wah. Wow!!!! Paragraphs!!! |

Pens look awesome doug little slow this morning but it's all good. Went out pretty hard and tried to hang on but couldn't. Highlight of the race was around mile 8 (I think) I was feeling like crap and life was kinda sucking. I came around a corner and there was Ebinezer Baptist Church. Ha! Reality check, dumba$$. You're really fortunate to be out here... Now hurry up cause we got beer to drink! Since we moved here I've been wanting to visit the church. Couldn't have happened at a better time. Next time I'd like to stop though. rr later. Y'all are AWESOME!!!! THANK YOU!!! I hope you guys have an awesom day!!!
BACK UP THE BUS. There must have been something unclear about my post. Not a grandma yet!! Not in any hurry either. ;-) |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() With the unseasonably warm weather I went for a bike ride yesterday. Everything was perfect except for one thing...(wait for it)... I forgot my riding shoes! Yes another shoe issue! Anyway we went out with me riding my clipless pedals with running shoes. My coach kept changing the route and the 24 miles became 38.7! I did not get dropped and I took my pulls too. Did start to get cramps in my toes of my left foot near the end. Major quad workout. And FWIW: All but two pens were shipped out by USPS this afternoon. |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Need some advice. I have a race coming up on Dec 17. It's a 3-person relay with each of us running 10 miles (on trails). I've been gradually adding mileage and I accomplished a 10 mile trail run on Nov. 20th. I'm having some ongoing (like since I started running last spring P.S. new insurance plan kicks in the first of the year, so I'm going to work through this on my own until then. Throw down your $.02 please. |

Throw down your $.02 please. Single sided pain is a sign something is out of whack. How do you like that for a medical opinion? Of course pain the lateral area is also the sign of a weakened or very tight ITB. You could try a PT massage ball in the TFL area to see if that refers pain down the leg. Releasing tension here should help some of the soreness. Do not roll on the pain point below the knee. Given you plan to wait to see anyone about it, my advice is you ditch any speedwork. I'm tempted to tell you to ditch the trail run too, but I am guessing I would get a big NO WAY. PS. I hate HTFU when it comes to managing pain. Pretty much anyone from the old MG can tell you that! |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Wow, Dan! Niiiiice PR. Jayne- please take my advice with a grain of salt b/c I'm still a novice but I've been poking around on Jorge's blog and looking at his services. Somehow I found a number of videos of running analyses he's done on people. In watching a few of them, and listening to the analysis, it sounds like something is out of whack like Suzy says. In one recent analysis, they pointed out how the angle of the individual's foot/hip was not neutral and therefore likely to cause IT band issues. Granted this might not be happening but it could be a possibility. Outside of having your gait analyzed not sure how you could find out. As for your race, not sure what I'd do in that instance. I might try doing drills and short runs focusing on form. But again, I am probably the last person here qualified to give running advice. Doug, way to stick with it without your shoes. |

Throw down your $.02 please. Jayne, I agree with Suzy's comments: TFL and the hammy insertions points (probably the one up at your butt). Don't HTFU. If you know a good PT or massage therapist, they can probably help sort it out quickly. If you don't have a PT massage ball, a lacrosse ball or hard rubber baseball works (and they're a lot cheaper). Here are some good references if you want to try to sort it out yourself. Lots of information, but she does a great job explaining things:

Good luck. Get well. |

And FWIW: All but two pens were shipped out by USPS this afternoon. Doug: I pm'd you my address. Your story reminded me of a guy I met at my second Oly distance race. He was a friend of a guy I sometimes train/race with. The guy had a $3000 Pinarello that he had ridden 3 or 4 times max before this Oly distance race (and yes, that was the only bike training he had done). He had clipless pedals and no bike shoes. He did the race in his running shoes. Turns out he was a really good swimmer and had at least 5 minutes on me coming out of the water, but I quickly caught and passed him on the bike. |
