I like the weather today. I woke up at 5 am and actually had coffee before heading out on my long run. There was a ton of clouds and the sun only peeked through for the first little bit. AND THEN THERE WAS RAIN! Well, for about the last 2-2.5 miles. And now I sit here and listen to the rain and run to look at it every 10 minutes.
We don't get much rain. This is exciting. And I have a river from the backyard to the front because they did an awful job grading. Twice. LOL12 -
@elise4270 I have a Confession to make. I got talking with a friend who is also a running, and we're talking about watches. He was thinking of getting something with all the extra metrics as he is coming from a forerunner 15. I love the 645 but after a couple of uses I decided I wanted something crossed with a fitbit for all day tracking - I spend a lot of time sitting at a desk so a reminder to move is a good thing for me. I was using my phone for ages as the reminder and it was a PITA. Also our local sports store had garmin on sale so I bought a vivoactive 3 music (I thought it would be a gimic but love not having to carry my phone on me!) I hope you don't mind. I gave your watch to my friend because he would get way more use out of it than I would. I'm really grateful for it, I would probably never have got a garmin if you hadn't sent it to me, I'm a complete convert now!6

Today's notes – I had some ambitious goals earlier this year. I had to tone them down, and one of the decisions I made was that series of races were not top priorities. Coming out of that, I'm not in contention for the USATF Niagara Masters Runner of the Year series. But I am in contention for winning my age group for the Rochester Runner of the Year series. That's what today's race, the Finish Strong 15K, was all about. The goal was to win my age group.
Forecast was for 43º F (6º C) and rain at gun time, with W or WNW wind and similar conditions continuing for as long as the race would take. I expected to have rain in my face for the mile or so along Cranberry Pond and Lake Ontario. Planned accordingly, dressed for the weather, packed dry clothes for afterwards.
Got in my car, and drove through rain to get there. No big surprise. Went early, to get a parking spot close to the rest room, in order to have less distance to haul my bag through the rain afterward to change clothes. Picked up my bib, went out . . . and the rain had let up. Ran my customary 2 mile warmup as an out and back on the last mile of the course. A light shower started up, but not heavy rain. It was really pretty good running weather. Got back to the car, took off my warmup pants to run in shorts, and waited in a pavilion with open sides. No rain on me, but staying accustomed to the temperature. Perfect.
The time comes, and we all head off to the start. This is a small race; results show 81 people finished the 15 K, and 90 the associated 5K. I look around. The guys I know about didn't show up. There are a couple guys I don't know who look like they could be in my age group. One of them turns out to be faster than me; I'm lagging the pack he's with within a mile, and he passes out of view by 3 miles. I soldier on, running the best race I can, hoping he's not in my age group, and doing what I can to keep anyone behind me from passing me.
As things turned out, I was not passed after mile 3 and I don't think I passed anyone but early start 15K runners and laggard 5K runners who started a half hour later and had the last 1.5 miles or so in common with the 15K. I'm trying to run at threshold pace. I don't think I can beat my PR from 2015 (1:02:02), but I hope to finish under 1:03. I'm grateful for a couple of good runners I won't catch for demonstrating where the good tangents are.
And the result was, I finished in 1:03:27. That's a 6:46 per mile pace per Garmin, 6:49 on certified race distance. I ran fairly steadily, accounting for the decline going toward the lake and incline coming back when I'm more tired. It turned out the fast guy was 59 years old, so not a problem for my age group this year. Next year . . . I don't think I'll be winning the age group in any race where he shows up.
As the age group winner, I got a coupon good for $50 off a pair of shoes from a store that's inconvenient to get to; but that will get a pair of shoes down to a good online price, so I'll use it. I also got a medal, which is supposed to have a sticker showing what race it is on the obverse and engraving showing what the award is on the reverse. The reverse is correct. Medal under the cut:
Talked to the organizer. They had a problem with their contractor that had never happened before. Some medals had the defective obverse, some didn't. I was just lucky enough to be in an age group where I was a blank shield runner. They will try to get stickers to send out to people with defective medals. When/if that happens, I'll decide whether to apply the sticker to the medal or just store them together to tell the story.
I've known for a long time that age group medals I have to work for tend to be, um, not as nice as half marathon medals I get just for finishing the race. But the blank shield age group medal has a certain amount of charm.
Anyway, I didn't run the race for the medal. I ran the race with the intention of winning my age group in order to support winning my age group for the Rochester Runner of the Year series. There were five guys I knew about who could have affected results. Two of them would have made me work hard, but didn't show up. I didn't expect them to. One guy can blow me away, but has never been interested in the series. I didn't really expect him to show up, but he showed up unexpectedly at 3 earlier RROY races. He didn't show today. The other two are my closest competition for the series age group, assuming the really fast guy doesn't decide to win the series. Neither of them showed up. As a result, one of them cannot match my point total and the other could theoretically tie it but I own the tie break.
So I am likely to win my age group for the RROY series this year . . . unless the fast guy shows up for all 3 remaining races. If he does that, he will with the age group all three times and win the series age group. If he doesn't show up for any one of those races, he won't have enough races to match my point total. I expect him to show up for the final RROY race on Thanksgiving Day, because he always runs that one. I don't really expect him to show up for the two RROY 5K races between now and Thanksgiving; but he could surprise me.
I've done what I can to win the RROY series age group, so I don't need to run either of the 5K races. That's a good thing, because each of them is on a Saturday before a Pete Glavin XC race on Sunday. I'd rather not run 2 races on a weekend, particularly if I need to run them both competitively. Not needing to do that was the prime reason for wanting to win my age group today, and it worked out well.
FWIW, the award for winning the series age group is not particularly valuable; I expect to get a tech shirt proclaiming me a winner in addition to a coffee mug just like the mug given to the 2nd through 5th place runners in the age group. It's mostly a pride thing, bragging rights, and the challenge of managing strategy in a series. If the fast guy shows up 3 times and wins the age group for the series, I don't get the shirt but I still turn my set of 3 coffee mugs into a set of 4.

Skipping bowling tonight for run in morning for Dennis. My hour will be a reflection/recovery run as todays 10 miles were basically a tempo run - 1 mile warmup, then 12min/mile pace with a sub-11 min mile thrown in as I pushed a little bit. At no point did I feel out of breath and continued to sing along with all my music. Had a running partner for part of mile 9.
Totally got taken to the cleaners by him but it was so fun and I really needed the motivation at the point. 💪🏃♂️
ETA: Congrats on the AG win @MobyCarp and hoping the other guy doesn't decide to show. Great story with the medal shield.9 -
I knew I had the race today, so I didn’t sign up for a slot on the run for Dennis. I’ll see how things go tomorrow as a few plans on the schedule.
Run for the Hill of it 5k Recap
This morning was the 6th run of a 7 run series. My husband and I have done all of them except for one that didn’t work with our daughter’s soccer schedule. This was the only trail run of the series and there wasn’t much info ahead of time about the course, except the info about the last .10 which is up a steep ski hill. The race started at 9am which I was so happy about.
I didn’t realize it was a trail run until yesterday’s race email as the rest of the runs in the series have been road runs. From reading other race reports on this monthly thread, I was able to manage my expectations with pace. The race was a lot of fun and reminded me of my old cross country races. We had a freeze warning last night, so it had only warmed up to the low 30F’s at the start. I wanted to wear shorts as a test for the race in a couple weeks. I had a tank with a long sleeve tech shirt over that. I was fine core wise, but my hands were freezing even in my gloves for the 1st mile. It had warmed up to 36F at the end and I was warm working the hills so took the gloves off for the last hill.
We have had a ton of rain so it was wet, but thankfully it did not rain yesterday so there were areas to avoid the standing water. It was a smaller race of 276 finishers, but there was really no good way to avoid the water at the start. I was fine as it helped get the shock over with as there were other areas of cold water. The 1st mile was a fast and had a lot of fun running through the trees and along the river. It wasn’t a wide path, so had to be careful around others. Slowed down during the 2nd and 3rd miles, but there were continuous hills and it would get bunched up in places. The big hill that was advertised at the end is after a similar climb, so the lungs were just burning.
Finished 29:46 which was the slowest of the series, but was very happy with the results. It was a fun race and really enjoyed the trails.12 -
I shouldn't have but I couldn't miss a chance at a Rain Run! Who knows when it might rain again here... Like @RunsOnEspresso, we don't get much rain here. We had a pretty amazing and unexpected thunder and lightning storm last night and it poured and then rained off and on all night. I was shocked to wake up to rain still and knew one way or another I had to get out in it. Even Hobbes the Vizsla was excited and really wanted to go with me, dancing and bouncing around the door and where we keep his running leash. He was pretty sad not to get to go with me.
I pretty much had the trail all to myself and it was so quiet and peaceful. I spent quite a few minutes at an overlook area enjoying the quiet, and thinking of Dennis, this group and how I am so happy to have found my way to running - something I never, ever would have expected.My foot was ok and didn't hurt much initially but was not happy by the time I got home when it was throbbing. It hurt more to walk than to run though... We went to the race expo to get my bib and shirt and I told my DH that I was still considering running in the morning. The issue is I really want to run it. The weather will be perfect, cool cloudy and the course is right along the beach. Realistically I don't think I could run 6 miles based on how my foot felt today.

@elise4270 I have a Confession to make. I got talking with a friend who is also a running, and we're talking about watches. He was thinking of getting something with all the extra metrics as he is coming from a forerunner 15. I love the 645 but after a couple of uses I decided I wanted something crossed with a fitbit for all day tracking - I spend a lot of time sitting at a desk so a reminder to move is a good thing for me.

I'm really grateful for it, I would probably never have got a garmin if you hadn't sent it to me, I'm a complete convert now!
Haha! Awesome! It was yours to give!0 -

No worries, I now know I should be able to run slot 5. Now to hope this rain will hold off...there's been a storm for most of the day but it's all quiet right now.juliet3455 wrote: »MegaMooseEsq wrote: »This is what I see in the spreadsheet:

This is what I’d been looking at too (clearly, since I’m on this one and not the other). I can’t do the first two slots I signed up for but can still do the last three.
@noblsheep , @Scott6255 , @garygse , @LaDispute57 Miles for Dennis - Would one of you be able to pick-up that 2 hour block hours 5 & 6 between Carol and @HonuNui . I have put myself in for the 3 hour gap after @HonuNui which has me starting at 2300 local time - running in the dark like an Ultra Runner. It's a good thing I know all the RCMP ( Police Officers ) in town so I can give them a warning. Planning to run until I have 26.2 km. Water stash at each end of the park trails.
@7lenny7 like @Elise4270 mentioned using the spoiler helps the page load faster as the pictures can load in the background after the main text/images are loaded. Sounds like you had a great summer and that was a great video clip of the water hazard.
I might need to pull out of this project. Woke up this morning with a mammoth headache and am currently coughing my lungs out. I'll see how I feel tomorrow and try to take the first hour of the gap if I can muster it. If not, I'll dedicate my next marathon to Dennis.

@RunsOnEspresso - that is the short (~1.5mi end to end) trail by my house that I run most of the time. It is a mile from my house to either entrance. I really love it there and they are extending it further north along the river!
@MobyCarp - Congratulations - another awesome race!
@jele30 - Congratulations on your race! I can't imagine wearing shorts in those temps but it sure worked for you!
@noblsheep - hope you feel better soon!
@Avidkeo - I don't know about friends on Garmin but you can connect and upload to Strava and join our MFP Challenge group there
Good luck @Orphia - looking forward to your race report!
@Tramboman - Wow! Just Wow! Great job on losing so much weight!
Non-running Hobbes the Vizsla update...
We got the pathology report back on Hobbes today and it seems pretty positive! Grade 2, low mitotic function, no vascular involvement and they got all of it (good margins). So there is low chance of recurrence or spreading! They want to review the results with the veterinary oncologist but he will be on a mast cell cancer protocol diet and we will watch him closely for other growths.16 -

Thank you Elise. I was a bit iffy about it, because you were so generous and it seemed a little, odd maybe. But in the end he really will get so much more out of the metrics than I would have, he is over the moon, it pushed me to get one when I probably wouldn't have and I LOVE my vivoactive so much. You really are amazing3 -
Another rest day for me cause hubby is in a tournament. My legs are really grateful for the extra rest. I decided to do a real workout challenge, a 1000 calorie workout from fitness blender, made up of 30 min HIIT, total body strength and abs. I've done them from time to time, I used fitness blender last year to lose 20kg, and often use them for lifting videos. I thought it would be relatively easy with all the running I've been doing it would be a good idea.
OMG the HIIT section kicked my butt. Last time I did it, a few months ago, it was great. But I've lost the ability to do a lot of the explosive actions. I may have to find a way to bring some of it back. Once the half is over maybe. I estimate about 500 calories burned total.
Chilling for the rest of the day I think.4 -
So I'm a total spreadsheet novice. Do I Just log my miles under my location? Or do I log them somewhere else?0

Since I have duplicate runners on my slots and the weather tomorrow is supposed to involve lightning, I did my run in memory of Dennis today. I am honored to dedicate my first time running a half marathon distance, 13.1 miles, to Dennis!
My husband and I were only planning on run/walking 12 miles, with only 8 miles running, sort of as a proof of concept to see whether we could do a half, but I got to looking at some of the race pace predictors which thought we could probably run more than we realized. So we got out there and ran 10K easy, took a walk and potty break with the clock still running, ate a couple of jellies, and headed back out. About mile 11 my hip decided I really needed another break and we walk/ran for a bit until we hit 12. By that point it seemed a shame not just to finish the whole distance, since we were about a mile from the car anyway.
The last couple of tenths ended up being down the finish line of the 5k we ran at the park a while ago - nice straight shot - so we decided we would try to pull off a fast finish. We were pretty tired at this point so "fast" was a relative term, but we gave it our all. We were both starting to lag and I could see my husband considering dropping to a walk so I yelled, "Keep running, fat boy!" and he cracked up and kept running. We ran it in at 2:37:54, average pace 12:03, including the pit stop.
My legs are a little sore and I do have a blister despite my fancy new "no blisters guaranteed" socks, but I think I feel pretty good overall. Planning on signing up for my half in November now that I know I should be able to make the 3 hr cutoff.
It was a beautiful day for a run, about 60 and overcast. Unlike some of the ladies here I don't like running in rain, especially when it's chilly rain, but we were fortunate and the rain held off until just as we were pulling into the restaurant parking lot for our after-run BBQ. Today REI was having a big do with live music and free boat rentals at the lake, so there were lots of people about, mostly huddled up in jackets and looking at us like we were insane for wearing shorts.
We also got to run a part of the Greenline we hadn't explored before since we don't usually run far enough to get to it. I was noticing the street names seemed familiar, and realized we were running in a place I have visited before since it once formed part of the farmstead owned by my 2x great grandparents in the 1850s. Now that I know the Greenline runs along there we'll have to run that section more often. It's no longer farmland, of course - there's a whole little subdivision with a church and a school back there today - but there are still lots of ancient trees and it's lovely to run and think about the dimension of time, what it used to look like and how it has developed. My husband said, as we went over a wooded hill, "This is beautiful land," and I said, "Yeah, but imagine trying to grow cotton on it!" Which explains in a nutshell why those ancestors were never wealthy.
Wishing everyone else well on the relay for Dennis. If I feel capable of locomotion tomorrow and there's no lightning I may get out and walk some during my slot.15 -

The sheets dedicated to states are for those that, at any point run a marathon for Dennis. He passed without having achieved his goal of running one in each state.
ETA I figure everyone will update here with the runs.0 -
@Elise4270 Oh, okay. I got a little confused. I will post my mileage here.3

@shanaber great news about Hobbes!
@Avidkeo It's great that you were able to share the running love with someone. That's what's it's all about. I really want music, but doubt I buy a new watch to get it. Mine has controls for music, so I think I'd have to take my phone. And I really can't stand those ear buds. I have some nice ones and they all hurt one ear, even the ones that hang over the pinna (haha I thought about using that word this week. Can not believe I actively actually had the chance!) Anyway, i wanna dance er run to music. It definitely help clear my mind.
Anyone here a career coach? Thinking someone was..... Just pm me danke!
Pre race jitters rant-- Race day tomorrow. Yay! Last year we slept through the start and missed the run. Twas fine since i was also then, coming back from surgery. I'm nervous about it. What if i cant. What if i fail. What if i just suck. Well. I'll suck. Several people will "beat" me. That's all fine as long as I dont beat myself out of an achievement, regardless of the time or AG place. And Dennis will be with me.
ETA should proof before posting
First race post surgery.. well the 5k kinda was or maybe the duathlon was, but i didn't train for that. This is the return to running threshold I've been waiting for.9
