A piece of Alabama's national championship trophy?  Glad you were able to find it and get it removed.  Best wishes for a "speedy" recovery.

Dont know if you posted this already but what school do you go to?

I go to Georgetown University in DC. I'm graduating in a few weeks though and moving back up to NY where i'm from. 

How can i quote two different people's comments at once? I don't want to have to post multiple times when answering 2 questions.

A stranger may convince you to get in their car?

Suzy's post may be more helpful, even though she terpsed it.  Have a great race!

As an alumni, this breaks my heart into tiny slivered pieces!   

Nice! I am in NY(Brooklyn), went to Rutgers so very familiar with Georgetown since they are in the Big East for sports. If your Major happens to be in technology (Comp Sci, Information systems, etc) and you dont already have a job I will be more than welcome to pass along your resume and put in a word for you with my employer.

Also, I have no clue how to double quote, dont know if its possibble. I usually just answer multiple people in a post like this

Name - answer

Name - answer

and so on and so on, Good luck this weekend

I SWAM TODAY!

Wasn't for very long or very far but I did it!.....  baby steps.
Got the backyard pool rockin' and the water is just warm enough to tolerate, so it's on! 

Glad to hear you are recovering well... can't believe your not posting pics of that toe!

Linda.....awesome job....very inspiring!!! Was thinking of you while struggling thru 2 miles on the treadmill inside the firehouse with the A/C...lol   Enjoy your well deserved time on the beach.

Matt congrats on the addition to the family!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!   Awesomeness!

I hear ya Jayne... my second toes on both feet got beat up pretty good. I drain the nails daily.  I guess the trail shoes will have to be either a half size larger or with a bigger toe box.  My toes don't take this kind of beating on marathons and regular runs.

I will be shopping for trail shoes soon.  I run in Brooks Launch and occassionally in Newton Sir Issacs.  Any recommendations to consider based on that limited information...or should I just let the resident experts at Luke's Locker direct me?

Hey Justin,

I went and tried on some trail-specific shoes tonight, but didn't find anything that suited me.  I'm going to do my next race, a trial half marathon in 11 days, in my New Balance Minimus shoes and see how it goes.  They give me plenty of room in the toe box and good traction.  Should be interesting!

Good luck this weekend, Kevin.  Be sure to give us an update as soon as you can after the race.  We will be cheering for you from all over the country!!

Kim--glad you got that splinter out!! 

Todays training:

1 mile OWS

4 mile run:

Good luck, race smart and travel safe!  You got this!
And we always kill the post count 

Yo!  It's Wednesday and time to spill your weekend race plans!  I know of at least one dude heading south for Nationals, but who else is giving it a go?  Do you have a strategy? or are you winging it?

Good Luck to everyone who is racing this weekend!!!
