SUNDAY UPDATE - Pastor Vincent vs Boston! For those new/or with short memories I recently hired a coach to help me run faster - with the original goal of a BQ in 2021 (thanks to all the mess around COVID-19 and etc, this will probably be delayed but still a future goal). It is probably an unrealistic goal, but I am not…

In case any of you work at a restaurant, a bit of advice... if someone says "no onions" and you say "is that because of an allergy" and they say "yes"... LEAVE THE ONIONS OFF THEIR BURGER. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Same, but more of browsing on Amazon and less of the cleaning.

I just got home from errands, and today is my long run. It is 93 currently. So yeah. July was the hottest ever recorded here with plenty of triple digit days. So yeah. Feeling the heat.

I am 5'11" with a 31-inch waist. Some people say I am a bit on the skinny side. AND YET, according to "race weight" calculators, I need to loose TWENTY POUNDS. They claim I will never reach my true speed potential unless I lose it and all that. So, yeah, I can see that happening. I know better than to believe those…

I agree. Sounds like you are burnt out. Find a way to back off and breathe, IMO. Running with this friend does sound like a good idea though.

In one of my trail 50ks I caught up to another runner and he was all like "You know we could just ditch here and no one would ever know" and I was like "Dude we paid for this, not ditching now" heh. I dunno if he finished or not - but I did not see him again. The conditions that year were very brutal, so trust me, I almost…

W00T! Well done!

UGH! :(

The very last race of 2020 for me just canceled. So this is the year with out a single race. yay.

I confess, this is exactly what I came here to find out :D

The utter surprise in his voice is what got to me. It is like he had been watching me run for a couple years and just finally figured it out. I am glad things seem to go well with your daughter. It probably will be fine once a regular pattern is established. Getting there might be rough though. Good luck :)

Ah man. So sorry :(

No. He was here before we moved in. I have not done more than wave at him in passing a few times though. So do not really know him.

I tend to hope my neon green Trekz headphone gives me a plausible excuse to not respond. Most people will not have a clue that I can still hear fine with them on. :)

So, the street that my house is on is obviously the road I run down the most. I mean I have to use it to leave the house AND return after all. So I have been running on this street at least a couple times a week for a couple years before the pandemic, and 4-5 times a week since the pandemic. So really all the people on the…

Yay for failing the test!!!!!

This! And all the photos are great!

This. Brooks Ghost is a neutral shoe, with high cushioning and a whooping 12mm drop. If I put them on (not sure they come in mens) it would feel like I was wearing high heels compared to my current 4mm drop. Also, I tend towards less cushioning, so without even trying these on, I know I would not like them.

Very envious!

HA! Yep... has happened to most of us I think... the rest it will happen to if they keep at it. :)

Ah man, so sorry :(

Yuck! Hope they get to the bottom of it soon!

So I realize not all of you have been doing this running thing as long as I have. So today let me give you a little advice... if you set out for a 10 mile run in 85 degree weather... MAKE SURE THE STRAW IS CONNECTED TO YOUR WATER BLADDER. Otherwise, you will spend the whole run trying to figure out how you ran out of water…

Hey congrats!!!

30!! Wow! Well done!! Congrats!

Awwwwww cute puppy!

15 miles in 98% humidity is like beast mode! Well done!

Agree! 27 is a big accomplishment! My wife and I just celebrated 24 back on the 4th. Normally we would have gone to a steak house or something. Instead, we stayed home and watched a movie. Ah well, next yere is coming!
