Re: What event are you training for?

guest — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 00:55:48 GMT

Right now I'm training for a 5K in July and another in Sept. I'm trying to get ready for the harbor half marathon in Corpus Christi, Tx. Of course I'll be doing the relay not the whole marathon on my own. I just recently started training 3 months ago for the Beach 2 Bay which happened May 17, 2008 Armed Forces Day. What keeps me motivated to get out there is my grandmother whom fought cancer for 15 yrs. She never let herself get beat during her treatments. She passed on almost 2 yrs. ago this July it will be 2 yrs. I picture her while I'm running and say to myself be strong like her and enjoy each day

When is the 49.95 charged to the card. Are you charged extra for applying for races online. Where is the catch of the fine print where active will charge the extra amount. I noticed they asked if I would like to suscribe for magazines and I checked No.

Well I'll be training for the harbor half coming up in Oct. but I'll be doing the relay not the whole half marathon not really in great shape to run 13.1 miles.

Re: Help! Tips for post-event running needed!

Do you train alone or do you have a running partner. It is kind of hard to push yourself so it seems like your running slow. I feel that way but come race day I'm always well prepared and tend to stay up with the other competitors. Your body has taken its toll from training for a year off and on then competiting in the half marathon. Our legs are made to take a pounding so its ok to rest at least once or twice out of the week. We are like automobiles we tend to heat up after a long journey.

Hope San Antonio gets that spur out and start playing like an NBA Championship Team.
