Looking for a running partner!

BMR: Mercedes is a tough course! Don't beat yourself up. I have never done but have heard about the hills. Plus, you get that sweet medal! I would do it just for that!

I have told myself I would be happy finishing between 2:30 and 3:00 for Seaside, with of course being much happier with as close to 2:30 as possible. I have done 2:00, 27 seconds 2 years ago (my best half ever!) 2:02 at Disney, 2:25, and 2:40 I think has been my slowest. With my elbow injury, it took off 3-4wks of training, so I will be (somewhat) content with just finishing this race.

BEG: Feel better!

NH: Keep going!

NNK: You are too fast for me in my current shape!

I am so impressed with everyone's training. The 5K is officially sold out and the Half Marathon will probably be sold out next week. So if you have registered, please do so ASAP. I'd to have you train and not be able to run in the race!

6 miles this morning Hope everyone is having a great week!

I got in 5 miles tonight - it was freezing!

Just got back from 6.5 miles - ran almost 6 then walked remainder home. I've got this one huge hill at the end that I just have to walk! It's gonna be a great weekend for running!!!
.

Just ran 9 miles!!!!! Then walked .75 to get back home! I actually ran up the huge hill!!! Yeah!!!


.

I think I did 9 too. I am too tired to go back and drive it off. Beautiful day!

I just got back from 3.5 miles this morning. Could only run for 30 min. today - hubby had to go to work and kids are off today!

Hope everyone had a great weekend - except for all the yucky weather yesterday/last night!

After a 2 week Musical Theatre hiatus, I finally ran again on Tuesday--3.5 miles before some kind of bug caught up with me and made me feel puke-y all day. It rained the rest of the week so I took advantage of this beautiful weather today to go for what was supposed to be a long run...

5 miles and change. Yikes. Next Sunday is going to be a long, long run for me...

Supermom: Will someone at the expo be selling Body Glide? I'm almost out, and don't have much time for zipping to Hotlanta to get some. Chafing is no fun...

Hi everyone - I RAN 11.25 MILES TODAY!!!!! - I am so excited, what's 2 more now?

We are coming down there Thursday night, leaving right after the kids get home from school. I'm hoping to run down there on Friday. I can't believe that it's already here, and I'm actually gonna do this! My cheering section below..

There are a couple of running vendors that will be there. Maybe I can call Body Glide and see if they will donate some for the runners. Look on your Glide you have and email me the number!

NoHall, I need to go to Dick's or Hibbett's this week - I can pick some up for you. If I go today or tomorrow, I could drop it in the mail to you & you'd probably get it by Wed. Let me know.

I will! There would be no need to mail it--I could hook up with you at the expo. (I hope to do that, anyway!)

Worst case, I take Vaseline with me.

I emailed Body Glide about providing free samples for the runners.
We'll see if I get a response.

5 miles for me this morning at 7:30.

Just wondering - are ipods allowed for the 1/2 marathon?

Yes, they are. Just no strollers, bikes or dogs please.

I had read about a race here in Atlanta where they are not allowed! Started to panic!!!
.

I ran 6 miles today! Fast! LOL! I was almost late for my hair appt. Didn't want to see the look on my hairstylist's face - you know, Jenny!

Who's excited for tomorrow?
I had a small accident yesterday, carrying one of the boxes of goody bags from the Lyceum to the School. I tripped on one of those stakes that they use to secure tent sides and fell forward onto the stage, landing on my knee, wrist and toes. I'm sore but trying to rest right now so I can run. Otherwise, I will be walking tomorrow.

I had an "accident," too--I agreed to work 18 hours a day for 6 of the last 8 weeks. I'll walk with you!

If anyone finds me sprawled on the side of the road, I have Skunky's number written on my arm in permanent ink...

A huge congrats to everyone who ran the race today! And a huge 'thankyou' for all of the people that helped out! Anyone doing the ING in Atlanta?

I posted in the lounge about my experience today in the anybody want to meet up thread.

Congrats NNK. Go post your day over there!
