Are You Running in a Race This Year?
Marathon season is officially under way, woo-hoo! I have to admit I love hearing that so many of you are in training or have completed a race. It motivates me to lace up and hit the pavement even more.
ironman to be
hey guys :) just wanted to introduce myself although I "know" a lot of you from the boards. I'm training for my first ironman -- 2.4 mi swim, 112 mi bike, and 26.2 mi run. It's exhuasting but I've enjoyed the journey so far and I am starting to dreaming about those words "RUNNINGESQ, YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!" I'm doing Ironman Cozumel on Nov 29.Do You Save Your Race Numbers?
Yes.
Only if I made a personal record at the race.
Nope.
Racing This Weekend
I am doing a sprint triathlon on Sunday! Teri Hatcher and I have so much in common. I need to come up with a checklist.

In the Fashion and Style section of today's New York Times newspaper there is an article that caught my interest called "Gear Test, Compression Socks" (see http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/10/22/fashion/1023-PHYSICAL_index.html). During my last two half marathons I've been plagued with calf strain while running the last few miles of each race. Though I've contributed this problem with not in taking enough salt pre-race day, these socks might help with calf fatigue in future races.
Stress Fracture
Well, I've been given my just-desserts. I caved in bought new running shoes a few weeks ago, but not in enough time. I've been ignoring the pain in my right leg, chalking it up to an old break that was being particularly stubborn in the humid weather.Sugoi - Running Skirt

Disney Half Marathon
i'm in the midst of training for the Disney Half Marathon on labor day weekend... did 6 grueling miles today in morning heat... blegh!Finished 5K
Ew. So... since I normally run at 5:30 am or around 9:00 pm, I didn't consider how hot it was going to be at 7:00 am in the desert.NYC Half-Marathon Presented by NIKE
This past Tuesday I found out that I got into the NYC Half-Marathon Presented by NIKE on July 27th. My sister and I will again team up as running buddies and take on the streets of Manhattan. This will be my third 1/2 marathon but my first in over a year.Top Brands
