Time to start meeting

Alrighty, I have no desire to try to fight my way to EFC and back on the 4th of July weekend. So how about we meet for our first group run of 5 miles on 7/11?

  1. I'm heading to Rehoboth that day - but if you guys want to get together and run, I can run with you in spirit on the beach! and I'll try to make it to the next group run.

  3. I could do the 3rd as well! I have the day off, but was planning to come in anyway, cuz i dont have enough leave for my many upcoming trips. But since nobuddeh will be here, i can show up wheneverz. Is EFC the best meeting place? works fine for me since it's on the bike trailz!

    I ran yesterday! It was hard cause Greg went with me and made me do speed work. Was only 3 miles but i did the middle part at almost a sprint pace, so it felt like a good workout. Leg kinda hurts today though. :( :( hopefully my consumption of 8-10 advil a day won't kill my liver before the marathon......

  4. yikes! that reminds me... I remember mentioning to Coach Fred once that I wanted to take Advil for some hip pain I was feeling during marathon training, and he said he did NOT recommend Advil when you're running long distances, but I can't remember why... it does somethin bad. maybe you should check with your doc?

    cool EFC run Friday morning - what time?

  5. I could do any ol' time on Friday. Wanna do early so we can beat the heat? 8, 9 maybe? I think i might bike there, it'd be a good distance for a warm-up/cool-down.

    Ooh thanks for the tip on the advil. I wassss taking advil before actually in April, when I was trying to get over Cherry Blossom, but recently I've been doing Aleve. Only reason being that Greg said his PT told him it had fewer side effects. But i don't know what those are, and if it's actually any better for distance running specifically. When i saw the doc, she actually suggested Motrin, but I didn't really think much of it. I should research this!!!!

  10. awww I'm sorry amber! no worries about the running of course. hope your aunt is ok!

    yeah suuure we could meet somewhere closer - though it's so much easier to keep track of the miles on the W&OD, and it's got that water stop.. but also we could find a route on mapmyrun or something. I will email you to discuss!
