Thanks for the welcome and second that was the time from my first...pre-injury on top of injury run. I ran Seaside last year in 2:19 flat. This year I am hoping that I can finish alive in 2:30. Mercedes in Birmingham is all up hill and down hill, it makes Seaside seem like a long flat plain.
Where are you?

I did Seaside last year in 2:slowerthanyou... :blush:

I live in Northeast Georgia, which also makes Seaside seem really flat!

Got 3 miles in yesterday with my new "Run Faster Mix". Today I was a slacker - I need more motivation when it is this cold!

Is this something on the iPod, or something that goes in a blender? :funn:

Billy Idol is my sprinting partner. Kenny Loggins' "I'm Alright" is right in the pocket for me--perfect pace. George Jones and Willie Nelson "Gotta Get Drunk" is grayt for jogging...

Run Faster - my own 1.6 hour running downloads. I hope to get 2 hours and 30 minutes on my ipod before the race! I used up my iTunes card, so I have to restock. I discovered today on iTunes, that there are Sport Mixes already created by Lance Armstrong, Serena Willliams and a few others.
My first song is Let's Get It Started by the Black-eyed Peas. Serena Williams also has this as her first song. I scrolled through her mix and I liked a lot of the songs she has, so I added them!

I have Maroon 5, Chris Brown, Fergie, Kelly Clarkson, Prince, Soulja Boy and now the Clark Brothers' Gimme Shelter and more!

I ran 3 miles in this freezing cold weather today. I have been on the Cheesecake thread and am now craving Cheesecake like no tomorrow. The more active I am, the more I want to eat - dang it!

Eat to run; run to eat...:bang:

You have new & hip music. I don't think anything on my iShuffle came out after 1990!

I'm about to take my first run from the military school...pretty exciting...!

(update: 5 miles and no major injuries.)

You got 5 miles in? Good for you!

I did 4 today and my ipod went berserk! I don't know what happened but the music started skipping and then it didn't play! I'm taking it back tomorrow and getting a different one. I hope they will let me bring it back since I downloaded songs already.

Your iPod skeers me!

Until I ran with you, I had not done the run 4 min/walk 1. I had done run 1 mile/walk 1 min. I like your way--I didn't have any problem finishing 5 miles. I was kind of slow, but didn't have to walk more than the 1 minute intervals. If I had done it my way, I would have ended up walking the last mile.

I'm rully, rully excited about the half marathon now!

So - I try to run every day at my lunch hour (12-1) and I usually run 3-4 miles. Let me know if anyone is interested in joining :) Also - long runs on the weekends? Let me know! Long runs go by faster when you have company. I am also training for the Seaside 1/2. Cheers!!
