Do I qualify if I rund a 15-16 minute mile? If I "sprint," I can do 13 minute miles ![]() *looking doubtful* I dunno, that's kinda fast. Even for us Super Turtles. We have everyone from walkers to IM dudes who go at 9-10min/mi. Turtlehood--it's an attitude. ![]() |

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Yanti, it was kind of an internet wandering to the Manatee T-shirt. Facebook was telling me to look at this cartoonist's merchandise...he does pugs so Facebook thought he and I would get along. So, in a moment of weakness I clicked and his pug stuff IS cute, but then there's this Manatee thing... Lynn, Obviously RH heard my IT band was getting better and was starting to worry about me "chicking" him. Ya. I am sure that's what happened. Actually DH and I had a funny convo about this...with DH sort of scandalized...well, why doesn't he just HTFU and run the marathon, what's wrong with him? And I'm trying to explain (not sure successfully) that as a professional runner he doesn't necessarily want to go out and gut out a race (like one of us intrepid AG'ers). It could hurt him in the long run to have a bad performance. I don't think Chris is buying it. |

Gladys is my black girl and The Colonel is regularly busted down to private (he's the fawn guy)... ![]() Oh no! The pic didn't come through! But ... you'll never believe this ... The black one in my photo is Gladys, too!!! The Three Pugs (and there is a winery ON the Vineman 70.3 / Barb's / full course named that, btw) are officially the children of a high-power Hollywood couple--probably THE most powerful couple in Hollywood. I was pug nanny! I would come and walk and feed them twice a day if the couple were in town, and if not, I lived at the house with them (and with this couple's travel schedule, that averaged to 1/3 of the time). Anyhow, I fell in love with pugs in general, and these guys were truly my babies for several years. I miss them, and their people. There are sooooo many stories. I must e-mail those guys ... I'm so glad you reminded me. |

I bet it was in the thread of whatever Manatee season it was -- probably the one that started in December. Maybe two months out? I'd hate for you (and, specifically, for me, I'm terrible!) to look through a whole manatee thread. Hmmm ... |

Okay, Yanti -- just perused the other Manatee site and here's what I found re: Oceanside 70.3
For Oceanside? As soon as you can tolerate the temperature, frankly. If it's a major hardship for you to get the OWS in, then three (minimum) before the race. I know I'm just guessing here, but this is based on my own swim training in essentially the same waters and then having done that race. The swim is deceptive. It's COLD and you do not get a chance to get used to the water or warm up. The more you can get your body used to getting into cold water and going, the better.

Extreme Veteran ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I finished my race report from Sunday and I apologize for how long it is and also for mentioning the wonderful Quincy in almost every sentence. If it sounds like I'm gushing it's because she was really that awesome as a pacer and a pal. http://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=229462 Now off to read Dineen's report.... |

I think many of you are on to my secret by now. Allison and I are actually the same person... Haha, I REALLY enjoyed pacing A...it was a good exercise for me to think about how to help another person perform, instead of just trying to pass them and giving them the road runner salute...sort of a running version of when the grinch's black little heart grows 3 sizes. Anyone else want a pacer??? |

When in the throes of I want to quit!! Here's a quote for you Manatees -- listening Q-- marathon woman --
"The body does not want you to do this. As you run, it tells you to stop but the mind must be strong. You always go too far for your body. You must handle the pain with strategy... It is not age; it is not diet. It is the will to succeed."

Expert ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Help me Manatees. This taper thing is not going well. I was not too antsy or mentally freaked out but my body is in full rebellion. Saturday night my back went into spasm, but I took some ibuprofen and running with Allison on Sunday helped. Sometime on Monday my neck and back went super stiff and I can barely move my head to the left or forward without pain. I keep taking ibuprofen and thinking it will get better...felt a bit better yesterday but woke up this morning (way before the alarm, and I NEED sleep right now) in excruciating pain. So I said mentally I am ok, but I NOW am about ready to lose it from the stress of the pain. Tapering is supposed to help your body recover. I wanted to avoid massage as I often get sick after a full body massage (I don't do them often and I think they release too many toxins into my body). But I went ahead and got one scheduled...I just hope it doesn't make everything worse. I don't know what to do. I can't believe the Marathon is 4 days away and I am in such distress. I can't see how I'll feel better by Sunday. W.T.F?!?!?!? |

Melon Presser ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Okay--random weird pains during taper is perfectly normal but waking up in exc-pain is not. Where exactly is the pain? is it constant, or knifing, burning, throbbing etc? Please give as much detail as you possibly can, por favor. Make sure the massage is long flushing strokes, NOT deep kneading ones. Drink TONS of water. Does ice help? |
