I haven't signed up yet, but could probably be convinced to. Great post-race party. Unlimited free food and beer. TS. Eek.Originally posted by Voinovich.:
PTI (pti): y'all still running CCC? Will be in the area again but if I run I'll have to sign up at the expo down there.
Iron Mom is a decent little race, though you'll be disappointed in the after-party and food (we honestly don't do a good job with that). I know that course like the back of my hand, it's my normal "Saturday Run". A little rolling in the middle half but not actually hill. Maybe a mile of gravel trail.Originally posted by -BBH-:
Ran the mini and accomplished most of my goals.
1. Finished
2. Ran the whole way
3. Didn't shit myself
4. Had fun!
5. Got to set a good example for my son who was at mile marker 12 cheering me on. He was smiling ear to ear. Not a surprise that I ran my best split after that.
My time was shit, but I don't care. I felt good for the most part and enjoyed every step.
Running the Iron Mom Half Marathon in Paducah in May.
Congrats man, can't imagine being a part of that.Originally posted by legalbeagle123:
3:19:37 in Boston today. Almost perfect weather, and beats the hell out of 90 degrees two years ago and barely coming in under 4:00. Ran every step, even on all the way through Heartbreak Hill. Very pleased.
Glad to see Meb get the big W.

Pretty cool video. Can't envision a scenario where I'd ever want to tackle a trail run.

My first marathon is in 2 weeks. Excited to do it. I have no time goal. I just want to finish without major issues (no cramping, no vomiting, no shitting). Like you, I was amazed at how much time it takes up. I've been pretty faithful to my training which has meant 4 days of running and 4 days of cross training, resulting in 2-a-days twice a week. I honestly don't know how people train for the Ironman and make the time commitment. I would be tired all the time.Originally posted by goose41:
*Doing my first full marathon this weekend at the Flying Pig in Cincinnati. After training for the past 18 weeks, I'm pretty excited and finally do the race. Those hills look pretty crazy, but atleast they are on the front end of the race. I'm aiming pretty conservatively to finish in just under 4 hours.
*Having never trained for a full marathon before, I had no idea how time consuming it could be compaired to training for 10ks and halfs. The worst is the long midweek run. Working all day then coming straight home to drop 10 miles and then go to bed was pretty miserable. I actually loved the really long weekend runs like the 20
