I did the 20k and didn't die! Go me! Lynners still beat me though. I've gotta catch up to that rat fink! I'll spank her ass by the time we get to the R'n'R halfer if it kills me! Gregoreo wasn't as speedy as his usual self, he had some bad tummeh cramps and wasn't feeling so hawt. Still, he kept up a 7:42 mm pace, so nothing to sneeze at!
Get any runz in whilst in Maine, R? (remind me to tell you about the Rachel-brand cottage cheese I bought today! ) I'm kinda wondering wtf i was thinking, signing up for that 8K on Tues so soon after this long race. hope i'm recovered! My new shin splint in the other leg is mighty owchy. iceiceice.alevealevealeve.
Aber, I missez you! Even if you're gonna defer, we should still do some runs! I can't remember if you said you wanted to still do the army ten miler. You can just focus on doing thattaone in your most bangeranginest way!
OH AND. I have a purple toenail. Iz a big bruise under it and the nail is kinda pulling away from the bed. owzers. am i a REAL runner now?

oh my goooooodness! a purple toenail! yes I believe you are a real runner now. I've never even had that happen, but I've heard of it happening to the hardcore types. *hardcore sign*
ReplyDeleteyeah I'm a little worried about the 8k too, but mostly because it's so HOT!! I mapped out an 11-mile run for Maine and ended up cutting off some of it so it was a little under 9 miles.. but the weather was amazing. I think if I hadn't had to PEWP so badly I could have done the whole route. haha. maybe not. but it was amazing to run in cool weather again, it was like 72 degrees with no humidity.
anyway GOOD JOB on the 20K!! I'm sorry you are having shin splint problems still. I can't believe you're still going, I think I would quit if I had that problem.
I miss you too AmbER! <3 <3 <3
