You ran 8 like a pro a few times with me. You’re not far off from finishing 13.
I dropped off being sick and busy with house stuff… I’m basically starting over. There is another half around artpark in September I’m shooting for.
If you can run 8, you can run 13.
good luck to everyone running the marathon today! the weather is perfect for it
Home now and feeling great!(tired and a lil sore) Knew I didn’t train up that well so didn’t push it too hard. Finished just ~5hrs!!! Hit the wall petty early at 15ish and stayed in it till around 18 when I finally started running 60 walking 60 and got through it. Finished pretty well from there and am glad to have another full under my belt. Saw some speeders out there!
Failed misreably. Knee started acting up @2mi, got tripped/pushed &7mi, walked in to the half and pulled the plug myself. Knee is bound up solidwith tendons guitar string tight and bulging out of the side of my knee. Have a friend who knows what’s wrong & going to help me through it. I will get that sticker on my car this year.
Another one is coming up in September. Congrats to everyone who ran, whether you finished or not. It’s no simple task.
As I told Spam I will run another any time to help get him the sticker. Feel pretty good today. Went and played a round of golf! Prob wouldn’t want to run for a few days still though. Time to start woking on that ~23:30 5k. That will be harder for me then a marathon I think.
Here is the one I’m going to attempt in September…Looks like an awesome run.
I am all for running it. But Spam is looking to finish a full marathon and that is just a half.
So glad the deluge of marathon shit on facebook is past for now. I drove 26.2 miles in 20 min fggts, get some.
Fuckin run it twice then
Get your fggt knee fixed you faggot and start training for this, fggt
I’d do the 15mi lol
Ran that last year, awesome race.
Ran the Buffalo Half Marathon in 1:46:14, dropped 15min off my last half marathon. I wasn’t feeling it for the first 5 miles of this race then I went into race mode… lol, I was booking probably running 7:20’s for a while there. Overall pace was a 8:07, the wife finished in 1:57:37. Good times, gotta go get ready for my next half marathon in a month… Then the wife wants to do a full marathon in October (Toronto).
Which half you doing next month? I want to see if I can do them ~2hrs still. I came across 13mi at 2:04 during the marathon.
2 hours is a good time!
This one, its pretty damn expensive though… but you might be able to finish on the 50 yard line of the Ralph. Apparently that’s not guaranteed yet.
Drew, that girl I introduced you to ran a 1:59:XX half, sent me picks of her bloody socks from tearing her toenails off I guess. My chiro is pretty well versed in other stuff, he just checked out my knee. Frey’d meniscus and VMO instability. Used the ultasound on it to cool it down and said ice it, has me coming in twice a week to get me back walking strait. I’m hobbling like a GD cripple after being trampled at the 7mi mark when I got pushed/tripped behind HSBC by the metro station. I started really feeling pain at the 2mi mark when I started falling back. Felt 100% in mind/body/nutrition, but the stabbing pain in my knee that I ran through 2-3x was too much after getting stepped on.
Fuck dude…get better!
I was happy to see that those jogging strollers weren’t allowed. I fucking hate those things when I’m doing runs, get in the way and the person is usually super slow.
