5K race this morning - 40 degrees and many elevation changes. Chilly and hilly! :D

26.35 finish time was good for 19th place overall. That was, I believe, my first ever top 20 finish, my fastest 5K run ever, and it was the very last race I will run before turning another year older. :lookaroun

Too short of a race to be of much help in marathon training, but it was good to breathe that frigid air and experience those hill climbs. All good in getting ready for the 2012 race schedule. :)

edit: Personal record! Woot! I had to go back and check to confirm. That's a nice "almost my birthday" present! :D

Congratulations! Great time, great to PR, and great pre-birthday present to yourself!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I was out of
town last weekend and I have been busy studying
for finals. I ran 16 miles this morning and felt great.
Nothing is hurting and I feel like running the Goofy
Challenge now. I also went out to Vertical Runner
to get a new pair of shoes, since I have over 800
miles on my current pair.

My Goofy Bib#: 21313

Epic fail this AM. I was supposed to do 20 miles on my marathon plan. GREAT running weather and I had a great attitude and felt really good. But at mile 7 I stopped to tie my right shoe and I strained something in my right foot really bad. Tried to fight through it but I just couldn't put any weight on it. Had to limp 2 miles back to the house. I'll try again next week. :eek:

4 miles on TM this morning. Middle two miles at 9 min pace.
Thank goodness for General Hospital which keeps me entertained during my morning TM runs! I sure hope it isn't the next victim of ABC's soap opera programming axe.

Thats our boy!

You know. When I was on my run Saturday morning, I was thinking how fun it would be to come run with you on your turf or visa versa. Maybe one day if I have to travel up north I can stop by one early am for a run or if you are ever in this area, we can go climb some hills.

Regardless, nice work this week... as usual!

Thanks buddy! Yeah, you got it. If you come up here, you best prepare yourself for 30 miles of ocean and pain!

As usual, great work by all of you!

I am still here, just took some time off after the full. 5K @ 8:54 tonight.
It was my first run since the full 10 days ago. I didn't plan to take this long off, but some travel and an 18 hour day at work on Saturday made it so. Felt good though. Wasn't sure of what I was going to pace-wise, but after I started, felt like pushing a little for me :) Some more random runs this week, and then next Monday starts my 12-week plan to get under 2 hours in the half-marathon.:lookaroun
