Great runs everyone,i ran 10 miles on the tm first 9 miles 6:39 pace last mile was 5:42,total time 1:05:42,all have a great day....................

5.44 miles yesterday in the Newton Hills, in 43:56 min (8:04 pace).  Then I headed off to run a bunch of errands in downtown Boston, and I happened to walk down Boylston St and saw the crews starting to construct the scaffolding for the spectator bleachers at the Boston Marathon finish line.  That got the adrenaline flowing! 


This AM I got in 5.19 miles on the Minuteman Bikeway in 43:24 (8:21 pace).

Another fiver on deck for tomorrow and then just a few piddly miles here and there before race day.

morning boomers :-)

sounds good to me, mr. beer, but as i've yet to do interval repeats, praise would mean more from others.

roy, forgive my brain lapse, but what is it you're recovering from? smart to take 2 days off. i hope it helps.

e-z pilates workout #1, & callan's abs, not sure what to call them. not quite crunches. 100 position 1, 200 position 2 with various legs in various places.

thanks for the plank exercise SS, I like it. so far just doing the easy version.

have a great day everyone.

so excited for the Boston bound.

runwun, your treadmill goes faster than mine. !http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/confused.gif|src=http://www.coolrunning.com/forums/confused.gif|border=0!

pdr, 3:20? i remember you're early risers way back from the welcome the newbies thread, because your house sounded like mine, & everyone else (dh included) thinks I'm nuts. but you win. :-)

mary, I saw a happy picture of Brinkley yesterday.

Good Morning Boomers!

Good runs already this morning.

{{{Sheak}}}

Started out with a 2-mile walk with DH. No shin splints for him today (yippee - he was so happy!) probably because he stretched first today, and we started out at a slower pace, adding brisk-i-ness after 10 minutes.

It began to rain as we were finishing and I headed back out for a decidedly un-sproinky 7 miles in 39 windy and rainy degrees. The sluggishness was perhaps because I’ve been trying to diet off my Easter candy, or perhaps because I have 520 miles on this pair of shoes now, or maybe just because I hate wind and rain and cold.

As I was chugging along down the middle of the street in the dark, a largish 30-something woman in a nurse’s smock came hurrying out of her house and across her lawn toward her car, parked on the street. I wondered if I should call out a greeting, but here I was, galumphing along like a Clydesdale, feet slapping the wet pavement loudly (I am not a graceful runner) and I thought, “Surely she can hear the racket I’m making.” But no, as she rounded the car and saw me she jumped a foot and shrieked, “OH MY GOD, you do that to me EVERY MORNING!” Actually I’ve only done this to her once before to my knowledge, several months ago. At any rate, I burst out laughing (I swear I couldn’t help it) and by the time I thought to try and choke out an apology it was too late, I was 20 feet further down the street and she was in her car. I guess I should never assume people are seeing me coming.

And she wasn’t even wearing headphones.

Happy Wednesday!

Not sure as I still will have a high school football player this year. But how lucky can a kid get. Freshman year and PSU has tOSU and Notre Dame on the home schedule.

Thanks.
