Goooood morning BT!

12 hour Run-A-Thon complete!  What an event!  My cross country kids were amazing.  Yours truly ended up with the most mileage--35 miles.  I banged out 15 before I took a rest, ran some more, took one more rest and ran some more!  The high school cheerleaders showed up at the start time and loaded us up with granola bars, fruit snacks, water, etc.  Many community members stopped by to run a little with us, it was great.  Many of my kids hit 20+miles, 25+miles and 30+ miles. Very proud coach here!  And now...I sleep!

Good luck racers today!!!

Sweet event!

We slept in today until the dog said 'hey what about me'!  By the time I woke up and felt ready to go it was unbearable outside.  Last nights downpour meant high humidity this morning.  Did 4.5 miles with the dog but took several breaks as the heat index was already 98F and felt every bit of it.  Thankfully the clouds for today's forecasted storms were already starting to block out the sun so I didn't have the sun load to deal with.

Have a great weekend everyone!

46 miles on the bike. My furthest ride to date and my first ride in the mountains (on Vaca from Miami). Holy cow my legs are dead! I can't wait to get back to my flatlands!

Got lost checking out the route for my tri next weekend, so I ended up doing 20mi on the bike and a 2.5mi brick run. Wanted to try the lake where the swim is going to be, but no goggles--bummer.

Congrats Kim on some awesome running and a character builder your XC kids will carry with them for life. Congrats to everyone on their personal bests, 1/2 marathons etc. Lots of cool stuff. I too am pumped, just did my longest bike ride in the last 26 years: 50.5 hilly, windy miles. I feel tired and sore, but good!

Congrats on the ultra! Just 1:40 run here, which I guess doesn't qualify as "long" by those standards, but in humidity approaching 100% it felt long. Shoes completely soaked with sweat and squelching by 60 minutes. Yuck.

PM 3000m of swimming. Then sat around doing work in my classroom as it just wouldn't stop pouring outside.

Feeling confident and cocky, after finally losing some weight, I got off my back side and into triathlon.
