Extreme Veteran  650    Sacramento, California |  Subject: RE: McFuzz's Mentor Group 2011 - CLOSEDdiscipleguideservice - 2011-03-14 7:47 PM ecpasos - I would do this Josh. Keep me posted on it if you register next year. It looks like quite the challenge. Hey listen now don't tease me here Ha Ha. Let me think about it then. I really need to see how I do as I get to the IM swim distance. Right now, I'm struggling through my feet cramping on just a 2500 yd swim. That's quite far from a 10K swim! BUT if I do decide to do it, this race is in my 'hood. I work not far from the shore so it would be very cool to swim out in the waters that I see every day. |
I am quite serious about this thing, and there are only 45 slots per year, so be sure before you say yes. How far away do you live from there?| 2011-03-15 8:12 AM in reply to: #3397347 |

Extreme Veteran 1700 Normal, Ill. | Subject: RE: McFuzz's Mentor Group 2011 - CLOSED ricmachado - 2011-03-14 6:31 PM I'm starting to get my schedule in shape again, since early this month when wife changed jobs, it got me all out of shape. But it looks like it's going to work now. ran 3 miles today, not too fast but no stops at all, after that took the bike to an empty parking lot next to the house to practice some spinning drills trying to get my cadence higher. registered to another race today, now I have some more motivation to train. (5k run + 20m bike) and that is all.
Excellent! |

Elite 4583 | Subject: RE: McFuzz's Mentor Group 2011 - CLOSED Well, the puppy is a keeper! We have named him Brutus and he just fits right in. Took him out for a desert adventure yesterday and he spent most of his time trying to keep up with Lola. Looks like two running buddies for me! I'm taking him to the vet today to get him all checked out, etc. I'm interested to find out just how big he might get...I'm thinking he is going to be one big boy. Lots of great stuff going on for everyone! Anyone racing this weekend? |

It's a trail HM that I'm thinking about attempting next year. I've never run on trails before but I'd like to give it a try. I figure this is a good way to check out the course and the race for next year and help out at the same time. Should be interesting. The weather will be good but everything will probably be pretty muddy from the rain/snow we've had the last couple of days. I'll have to dig out an old pair of shoes to wear. |

They are tough on me, but I believe it makes me much stronger for regular ol' races with lots of flats. Most runners I know love the trails. Btw, I've got a race next week, the River City Half Marathon on 3/27. It's not a trail run and I think it's pretty flat so I'm shooting for a PR. Anything less than 1:49.50 would be nice, but I'd like to come in at 1:45. Edited by ecpasos 2011-03-16 12:18 PM |

The new York 1/2 marathon... very excited and more nervous then I've been for other races probably because I never ran the full distance in a training run and I'm not going to be "racing" more like just finishing. I have no time goals... just want to attempt to enjoy it. Maybe i'll do another 1/2 in that fall and give myself more prep time. |

. Apparently there were some differences with the organizers of the festival that goes on that weekend (the HM was part of the event). I'm still hoping to do a fall half - I'll just have to find a different one. | 2011-03-16 4:29 PM in reply to: #3256268 |

Expert 961 Illinois _ Chicago area | Subject: RE: McFuzz's Mentor Group 2011 - CLOSED Had my second opinion appt. today. Liked this doc much better than the first. In fact, I'm going to stick with him. Anyway, he is not recommending surgery at this time. YEAH! I actually have the start of arthritis in my hips which could have been a contributing factor in the development of the tear. (So much for my plan of out lasting the competition Last night I actually had a dream I was running. SIGH.... |
) Going to have 8 weeks of PT with a very detailed protocol for the therapist to follow. Have developed tendonitis as well. Asked about ART in addition to the PT and he thought that could help. No running, no cycling.
