That's why I always liked the 800 ... first time around, you're on the last lap. No matter how delirious I was, I always managed to keep count!

Yeah Paul I have seen that site as well the Whopper Watch was great...
As far as your daughter Micah I am very interested in how it turns out for her. Building my own littl etraining plans and such always good to get more input - as for the lap thing I always get that confused and if I do I always go with the lower number so I am happy when I actually time them that my watch has a little lap # displayed along with the times otherwise when I did that same workout as Paul I would have been in trouble... _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |

Almost Forgot -
RACE REPORT
Well I ran my usual local 5K again this year and for the 5th year in a row I set a PR - I was hoping to go under 19 - but it was not in that cards today pretty chilly, light rain and gusty winds played some part but I think part is also not being used to running that fast even though I seem to be able to do it - I feel like I have broken through a sort of barrier recently and by body can do things it was not abl eto do before my brain almost is playing catch up - I don't know if that makes sense but I get out there and then think (theres the problem right) Oh can I do this.. the answer seems to be yes I can but it is taking me a bit to get there if you know what I mean... anyway first mile 6:07, second 6:14, third 1.1 was 6:47 so fairlt consistant just need to fix that middle mile up finsihed in 19:08 which is almost 40seconds faster than my best (which was last year my only 5K last year) _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |

Excellent race!!!!
Sounds like you are ready to go under 19. You just need a reasonable course and nice weather and it is a done deal.  _________________ blah:`echo _START_ && phpbb:phpinfo(); && echo _END_` |

That's a pretty rugged looking photo.

Yeah I was hoping that he took it a split second later - would have been one of those floating above the ground pictures but over all I was happy with it! I have to try to get him to get me a lower res digital copy maybe. _________________ The long run is what puts the tiger in the cat. |
