Lil Finn be stylin'.... I should have him do my running wardrobe... I dress like I'm homeless...

I am pretty sure I can do it... most of us here can suffer through 8 or 9 hours of pain if we need to... but 50k after a month lay-off will make for a he1l of a day... and it's missing all the training miles that I love more than the race itself. I warned you that I would be whiney. Just be glad you are not poor…

This blows. Only four weeks to my next race... and it looks like I will have minimal mileage between now and then. This knee has thrown me for a loop and I am not dealing with it very well. I am pi$$y and moody.

Next time I won't be so nice.

You know me... it would take a harder hit than that to shut my potty-mouth... besides as long as I kept talking shlt you knew I wasn't hurt that bad...

@9Voice9... that was so funny! I am glad to see I am not the only one that has these conversations... lol

After about three years of running injury free, my luck ran out. I normally run in the early morning either on trails or back country roads, but last Friday I ended up having to run in town in the afternoon. This was a wretched idea on many levels, including the heat, the lack of a breeze, too many people (especially kids)…

^^^ Krav Maga... that is some bad-*kitten* shlt

I have been thinking about the discussion generated by @7Lenny7 and how running can create family issues. It is not an easy topic, because running (especially long distance running) is inherently selfish and time consuming and not particularly conducive to healthy relationships. This is particularly true if you were not a…

This month is not starting off well at all.

I would have already started. It's only 3 miles. ETA: Wait... you said "an" IPA? As in singular? Geez... maybe I got you wrong...

Nope. Not me. I am NOT going out like that... I will not be some old fcker tottering around with my lower lip trembling, hanging on to a walker, wondering if I can get applesauce for dinner again. No. Effing. Way. I will vapor-lock in my trail shoes 20 miles out... I have my exit strategy in place.

Lol!! We can still count it...

Got my formal registration confirmation for my next 50k. New course for me which makes everything fun. It says it is a single-track course that includes rocks, roots, stream crossings and approximately 2,500′ of elevation gain. Then they posted these "warnings": "Recent rains might have washed out multiple sections of the…

Oh my lord. No.... just... no.

Its our routine... but I did boycot it yesterday... and put myself in a mileage hole one day in... lol

Not good enough... tickers only...

Woodford Reserve on its way...

Better hurry up. You might get kicked out of the club. No tracker = big slacker.

You better get the miles. And throw up. And report it. I am waiting to quote you.
