swbkrun with us!!! - Closed (Page 40)

kt65 - 2011-01-05 5:06 PM Sometimes living on the West coast makes it hard to keep up with the MG.  My head is swimming and I haven't been in the pool in 2 whole weeks (yikes, that is probably not so good for a swimmer of my caliber).

So here goes, I will attempt to join in.

Doug is dying to see bike porn.  John just wants porn.  Does anyone understand what John is talking about?  3000, 9000, 11000?

Kelly is back swimming and has been persuaded to take lessons from a coach before she starts building distance.

Sam and Tony are headed off for Goofy medals and for some sun and fun with the kids at WDW.  Have fun, guys!

Tony either wore a very TIGHT suit to his Christmas party last year or a very LOOSE suit this year.  Pictures of the former would be nice to post, Sam.

Linda, how is it 7 degrees colder just 35 miles away???  I would need a ski mask running out there!  Or one of Suzy's under armour masks...that cold and I have asthma type breathing issues.  I am so excited to bike Tunitas with you!!!!  MLK day, here we come! 

Erica, you have tons of time to get ready for an HIM in July if your half mary is in May...weren't we talking about this very thing with Sylvain?  But that was pages ago!!!  I guess the way to do it would to base build in all 3 disciplines now (as you are doing), and continue to bike and swim a few times a week while half marathon training and then it'll be HIM focus after that!  Maybe everyone already said that and I am just repeating...sorry!!!  Congrats on quitting your job!  Yay for being able to train and go to school on Ryan's income!!! 

I love my Adidas running shorts, btw, I am not sure they still make the particular style I have (climba-lite)...I should look it up on ebay or something with the exact model.  I have two pair and they are my favorites (even this morning in 40F!)

Suzy, your question?  I think I have already been training for my A race (IMWI) since December but who knows, I am glad the marathon is between now and then, because it keeps me from getting too freaked out!!!  I meant excited. 

Okay, off to do more eye exams and answer tons of questions as patiently and intelligently as possible.

John....let er rip... after all it is on the bad side of the basement!!!!

I'm in law school at Marquette University right now.  I chose Marquette because it has one of the best, if not the best, sports law programs in the nation, and it's only one of 2-3 law schools you can get a Sports Law Certificate from.  I just love working in sports.  It's an awesome feeling!

I also did my undergrad in Sports Management, along with a Marketing degree to give me some more appeal to law schools. 

Where is your daughter going to school?  And what does she want to do with her degree?  Those are some pretty awesome internships she's got!  I worked for a few sports teams in college (semi-pro, pro, and high school), and I'm hoping to work for a big retail company's legal department in the fall (I don't like to name names or talk too much about it because I don't want to curse myself). *crosses fingers*  I don't graduate 'til May 2012 though, so I've got lots of time in school still.  Ick.

When I was in law school the "new" commissioner of the NBA, David Stern, was one of my professors for Sports Law. There is a lot of overlap with IP law. Mostly copyright and trademark. Oh yeah, if you remember Marion Jones, I wrote the patent for the Nike running suit she wore and debuted at the Prefontain games.
