kns57 - 2009-10-05 10:50 AM Okay, who is doing notes for those of us who can't keep up with the posting?  What did I miss over the last four days besides 40 pages of post padding

NEVER! POST PADDING???? WE WOULD NEVER THINK OF SUCH A THING...come on...there is all kinds of big news! if you like food!!! haha


As long as it's not meat you know I like food.  LOL

of course not ~ haha but hey there is nothing wrong with being a foodie! I LOVE FOOD!!! and since we are all running daily! (well maybe not quite daily but close) then we can enjoy food...ALL FOODS!!! I think that was one reason I used to run!!! so I could eat all the time and not have to pay the consequences... now I kinda like running! but dont say that too loud! my feet take some time to get the info my brain is sending to them and I dont want my feet to go on strike! haha

kromanowski - 2009-10-04 7:10 PM UGGGHHH....I really dislike Sunday nights...they are just so depressing...they mean I have to go to work...and that it is 5 whole days to a weekend...but I may take Friday off to clean and get ready for my parents to come visit next weekend.  They are coming to watch my DH run the Chicago Marathon.


Just take Monday off like me!!

I am off from now on on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, one more Friday to work and maybe next Saturday...otherwise...done for the winter! Im off til April! I do special events for the summer months only....winter...I play and train!

heading to the Central California Coast (morro bay) this week...wed, thurs, fri....husband has a conference...Im going to the spa, and shopping! anyone want to join me? He will be busy all day...and we can just shop and eat and get massages! tell me I wasnt thinking of this all yesterday when I was running...sure that was one reason for smiling! haha


Dang, wish I was there.  I love the Central Coast.  My brother in law was stationed at Vandenberg AFB.  I loved going out their to visit my sister.  Plus, I am very good at shopping, eating and massages.  Have fun!  Great post race activity.

thanks! I hardly ever treat myself to a massage or spa treatment....not this time! I am alllllllllll over it! you can come hang out....I would love the company!

indeed! way to step it up!!! just wait to see what next year will bring! kIU!!!

serendipity - 2009-10-04 8:43 AM Got my first run of the month done this morning.  Just 2 miles, and slow, but it's done!

Way to go Debbie!


Neal!  How'd ya do today?

Impatient for results TOPpage


Great!  Finished in 3:20:08 and set a 22 minute PR!  Was on pace for a BQ until about mile 17 or so when things sorta started going downhill.  Perhaps I'll figure out this pacing thing in another marathon or 2.....


Taking 22 minutes off is huge!  Congratulations! 

yes indeed! so how many marathons have you run, Neal?



That was just marathon #2, hence the big PR.  This is actually only my second season of racing so I been setting some pretty decent PRs all summer long.

*PRing toppage*

wow...that says a lot about you and your determination! you go boy!!!! so tell me what you do for eating and drinking for a full marathon?

skrtrnr - 2009-10-05 11:53 AM i'm sorry GHOULIES.

i cant come out and play today.

i have a spare room that needs a-tending to.  ya know. the xtra room where you stash all your xtra stuff until you find that all the xtra stuff is just everywhere, haphazardly filling the space.

ive decided, i cant put it off any longer, i need to bring order to the chaos.  and today (and tomorrow and quite possibly wednesday) is the day that im gonna face the beast!

but.....

i wanted to report in.

it was an AQUATHON-Y sorta day today.

2.5 mile run followed by a 1400 yd swim followed by a 2.1 mile run.

RUN HAPPY!  i sure did!
stacieb


Nice run-swimmy-run!  And your reward for getting that done is, uh, cleaning.  That seems more like punishment

as much as I want to agree....I see where Stacie is coming from...no rest til it gets cleaned...that room will weigh on her shoulders til it is done...its a girl thing!

YOOO!!! So I am slightly recovered after my 12hr sleep last night...it was pretty much glorious...

Went for a short run today...I was going to not--but I did sign up for a peachy october and felt I might as well kill 2 birds with one stone..

Tomorrow I don't have class till 1pm, but a friend wants me to quiz her on econ stuff...I don't know anything about econ...ok maybe thats a lie...but still..haha

kimk - 2009-10-04 5:34 AM Hope all those racing right now are doing good!!! Remember to smile!

smiled, danced, smiled more, sang a few songs (sorry to those around me!), made 3 porta potty stops, only walking I did were thru a few of the water stations. My daughter and I finished together hand in hand...both with BIG smiles!


awesome job!!!

thanks Kim! I was soooooooo nervous!

I must have gone to the portapotty at least three times before the race....in a 15 min time span! thank goodness they had LOTS of them! along the run I had to stop three times...dang were there some long lines too! there was one guy who had his garage door opena nd was allowing runners to use the garage bathroom....what a nice guy!

there were people passing out doughnut holes, BACON???!!?? , cookies, mimosas, one home had a keg of beer....plus there were the homes that had the kids set up in the street curb with thier drum sets/keyboards and guitars playing music (not really but goin thru the motions)...there was one home that had a big screen (must have been at least a 72" cuz it was monster size...he had a camera at the finish line....was fun to see the people finishing...but of course we were just wanting to be next to them then~~~

there was one bummer situation...a young girl (20's) on the side of the road...she was less then a mile from the finish...and they were doing cpr on her! 6 medics working frantically on her!!! very sad to think of the family waiting on her....and not having any idea that she was in such grave danger!!!!

oh there was also a house blasting the music from Rockie....when he climbs all those stairs....definitely got a rise from the runners as they passed the house~!



Something about that music you can't help but get pumped up.  Someone was blasting that during the mary too yesterday and I couldn't help but speed up a little bit as I passed

haha...amazing what music and or a cute butt in front of you will do to make you run faster to keep up! nothing better then a cute pace booty!

Also, I forgot to share my funny story of yesterday...

So I finished my part of the relay and my friend who did the first run took my bike and leaned it up against a pole so I could go and get my wet clothes off...I changed and when I came back to my bike (maybe 5min max later) and there were probably about 10 guys all standing around my bike just staring at it...haha

It kind of made my day---maybe I should name my bike "the man magnet"...lol...
