Great advice Trixie!! That is exactly how I have been running since after my stress fracture. I could never have described it nearly as good as you have. Thanks Trix!!

It took me a little while to feel comfortable with the short stride length, it almost feels like shuffling at first. After doing it for a while, I feel absolutely no impact. Good luck!!!

That's what they pay me the big bucks for

In other news. I'm not going to be training specifically for Western States. I've changed my focus...

Are you now saying that WS is a B-level race?!

BTW, yes, I'm still alive and training with irregular regularity.

Today is the inaugural Tampa BT Half-Marathon, courtesy of Betsy and 22legs. We'll see how I run that. I may even do a race report.

yes.  I suppose I am. Sad, huh?

I love training even though my wife hates it.  This is one extra reason I tri... I have dropped about 25lbs and at least 2 inches in the waist since Jan 1, 08.  I am at my lowest weight in at least 15 years.

Awesome job John!! You're an inspiration to all of us!! Start a thread in triathlon talk with the above statement to motivate others on the site!! It's great how the weight sheds off as the training picks up! Keep it up!!!

I will start a new post as soon as I have time from training   I had a great outdoor run today at a good pace.  Hopefully, it is a precursor for a good 1/2 Mary this Sunday.  I have put down 1:42 as my projected time given the start area will be jammed up, however I am for 1:30.  We will see given I have a 3 hour ride on Saturday.

1st Timer in NY - 2008-03-11 6:36 AM Good morning Bob Stockers! I ordered my Garmin last night..better ship that to my alter-ego's address until I can just slip it into our lives without wifey noticing.

 

My Dad and I always say, "I won it in a raffle."

Works for quite awhile before anyone start figuring it out.

Guess who did a 5k today!?! Time is unimportant, what is important is that I WON A GARMIN!!! Prolly 95% of the reason I actually did this event was to sneak this into our house.  Thanks for the tip!

I'm  going to a running store this weekend to have my "gait" analyzed...what am I, a frigging horse...and I will probably win a new pair of shoes in a raffle 

NO horse jokes!

I ran my 3 miles for the first time last week and about died the next day.  I think I need better shoes.  My first tri is in a month and 2 days and I plan on doing lots of running between now and then!

Hammering the Downhill??

Looking at Elevation Profile for Musselman got me thinking about how to handle the downhills?  Living on Long Island we don't have too many hills, so I was curious: do those of you who train/race on hills hammer the downhills, or do you coast and save your legs for the run?  One friend suggested to spin at very high cadence to work out any Lactic acid that may have developed in your quads.  Any thoughts?
