 436  |  Subject: RE: Manatees - 2018 Edition Now CLOSEDOriginally posted by rrrunner Originally posted by TXTriRook Everyone's back to school next week down here in TX. On an unrelated note, I'm running a very expensive 5K on Sept 9th and I just found out that the finishers medals come with a battery and phone charging port! We always have a big group running it, my mom makes team hats and the swag is awesome. Pretty sure we get wireless Bang & Olufsen headphones this year. Hope everyone's having a great week! I'm pretty sure I lost my HRM somewhere between here and Boulder. I'm not a happy camper! Speaking of cool (or not) race medals. I am doing a race next weekend that is 10 nautical miles (about 11.5 regular miles). I signed up because it ends at the base where DS2 did his basic training for the Navy. The race starts at an Air Force base and ends at a Naval base, hence the name Fort 2 Base. So... this years medal is the first of 3 three that will magnetically stick together to form a pretty cool looking 3D, shadow box looking thing. My problem is that this year's medal is representative of the Air Force part. It has a tower that is on that base and it's off center to allow for the Navy part next year. Well, I'm not going to be here next year!!! That's all well and good for someone who can do two or all three of the years but for just this year I will have an off center Air Force tower on my medal I think the shirt will be pretty cool though. Sounds pretty cool too! Not sure why they would make it 3 medals over 3 years for the box to be complete. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd think the probability/percent of people to do the race 3 years in a row would be pretty low. |
I know, first world problems. I think I'd be less disappointed about the off-center part if it were the Navy part.

I've posted this before I think, but my first marathon was the first of a 5-year race series. You got one piece of the medal collage every year if you did the half, full or ultra marathon, and together they formed a Texas Star. Myself and lots of folks I know did it all five years just for the medals |

But this is a bit far to travel for a 10 (nautical) mile race. |

But this is a bit far to travel for a 10 (nautical) mile race. Both races have cool medals! Regarding the issue of people showing up multiple years to collect a set of medals- it is a big thing! One example is the Space Coast Hm and marathon. For years you could sign up day of race, then they decided to make a 3 and 5 year series with various space themed medals (the race is near cape Canaveral / Kennedy space center; people went nuts for it. The HM sold out in minutes every year. The marathon took longer as they gave the same medals for both races. People just really wanted that set of medals, so they kept coming back. Series ended and they immediately started another! |

Master 9705 Raleigh, NC area | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2018 Edition Now CLOSED Originally posted by lisac957 Originally posted by rrrunner The kids here in Wisconsin don't start until after Labor Day. This is the 2nd week of school for most districts in Atlanta - some started the last week in July which blows my mind. Selfishly, the lap pool I swim at has been so much less congested since school started and I love it. In the summer, it seemed like parents were using the pool (with no life guard, mind you) as a babysitter. I always get nervous that I'm going to be responsible for someone else's child as the only adult in a pool area if an accident went down, but thankfully nothing has happened. Raleigh has the opposite problem -- in the summer the city empties out. Nothing is crowded. Traffic is a breeze. I don't know if everyone is at the beach or what. Then school starts and wham! Everything is slammed. I've never lived anywhere else where summers are like that. |

The place is dead until next week when everyone comes back for fall semester. |

I'm sure that it's fun getting around town with all of the clueless/lost drivers. |

It's been almost 3 years since i've been to DW and that was only to pass out candy at one of the marathon support stops. Before that i couldn't tell you how long it had been! It's been even longer for Universal and I've never been to Sea World. Guess i'm a bad representative for the theme parks!! |

I'm recovering from a chest cold, so missing a couple of workouts is well timed in some ways. I agree with Janyne - lots of people vacate Raleigh for the beach (2hrs), mountains (3hrs) and elsewhere in the summer. Plus 40k-50k or so students at the various local college are mostly out of town which helps thin it some. |

Please, don't give my district the idea of starting school on a Friday. A few years ago our last day was a half day on the Tuesday after Memorial Day. It was the planned last day - not a snow make-up day or anything like that. It was stupid. I made a deal with my DH -if I do stay an extra year before I retire I get to go to WDW. I really want to go in October so I can see the Halloween decorations because I'm really a 5-year-old. |

After going there with my 2 young kids (and wife of course  ) last New Years, it'll be a good 5+ years before I head back. It felt like 1/2 of the country goes there for NYE. My wife was breast feeding our 9 month old on a stoop cause there was nowhere to sit and it was 100 degrees. Not fun! On another note, I found my HRM! I can't believe I didn't think to check the dirty laundry hamper. Now what to do with the Scosche Rhythm 24 I ordered....obviously keep it, right?? |

I have a 100k that I am supposed to "round to" 70 and then do a brick run. Yes, I am a wimp compared to the rides you, Lisa, and Randee are probably doing this weekend. |

I'll be on the Chatt course Sunday! My plan says 85-90 miles so not sure how I'll get that done but I will. Definitely one full loop then maybe a partial loop. I'm tempted to just ride the loop 2x (we're not doing the "stick" portion) but may be at the mercy of my group, we've committed to sticking together for safety (and friendship LOL) reasons. |

Only in Wisconsin is 13 miles a "mini" something! They also have a Milwaukee Brewers Mini that is also a HM |

| Pennsylvania | Subject: RE: Manatees - 2018 Edition Now CLOSED Originally posted by jmkizer Racing Manatees!!! Good luck TJ and Janyne!! I think a good luck is in order for all the Chatt racers doing BIG mileage this weekend. Be safe, stay hydrated. It makes my 'Big Day' tomorrow, as Coach Josh titled it, look pretty puny. |
