I tend to body slam myself on to jagged rocks, haven’t sorted out the ruck and roll

Oddly, I think I’ve been part of one of those 5ks back in 1989 or so. Remember being along the Potomac, but I didn’t do much. I was there with my Mom and her other military people

Although, a gentle word of caution, if you’re getting into single track, just come to terms with bleeding. It just happens. Everyone gets to roll on the ground. Even the pros

I didn’t come in last, there were a few behind me but in my trail marathon crossed the line as they were breaking down the rest of the finish line and all the food trucks had shut down. My wife(then GF), daughter and parents were there so that softened the blow a little.

I’m trying to keep it to 3 days a week now, as opposed to turning strength days into also run days and pushing mileage more than I should

There’s a funicular at deer valley to get to the St Regis if you’re ever out this way

I actually did my first strength workout in awhile this morning. I keep trying to simplify it but then continue to add stuff in until the workout is super long, I think because of how I used to train for HS sports, I.e. wrestling and football. We’ll see if I can keep it simpler this time. Focus...

This will be the second cruise/DCL cruise for myself, Matthew, and our daughter, Madeleine, 6. I don’t know how many my wife, Heather, has been on, she used to work for Princess in Alaska and went on many with them. Our first cruise was on the Wonder to Cabo last year, and we didn’t get off the...

Not that anyone asked, but out of curiosity I looked up Mid-Mountain Marathon and it is now a 50k, if anyone is interested. I still recommend the Jupiter Peak Steeplechase more if anyone wants to try something different.

I saw someone do that on the Mid-Mountain Marathon back in ‘19. Really surprised I didn’t see blood anywhere as it’s quite jagged in places. One was broken and left behind on the trail about two miles from the finish. Crazy stuff

You got this!

Don’t be jealous I was in the kitchen at work, so I had no idea it happened. I have only experienced thundersnow once, and it was dark so it was sooooo amazing. Next race is the RUN SLC 15k in April. Then later that month I’m doing a bunch of volunteering for the SLC Marathon. I may sign up to...

Ran the run slc 10k Saturday. Went as expected. Some knee pain for about two miles, but nothing unusual. The weather, though, 50 degrees, 30mph winds with gust into the 50s, thankfully(sarc) the out and back started with the wind at our backs and in a head wind the way back. I put my sunglasses...

Dinosaur if it’s not already closed

February total 48.1 miles Time-lots Illnesses-0 Illness scare-1 I have a 10k Saturday, but not trying for anything big other than to finish it. Congratulations @nancipants !

Aggressively introverted, putrecently foul mouthed when I do talk, and I have what is referred to in women as resting b!^<# face. Somehow I manage to turn on the charm and chit chat when I am at the register. Wife and daughter are both extraordinary extroverted, wife gets it when I need to...

Mostly a visual cluster**** of UA snowboard base layers from over the years. And a soft shell on top. Generally nothing but base layer and shorts on bottom. If it gets really cold(close to O*F)soft shell pants on bottom. Fleece gloves unless it’s also close to 0. Never hard shell. Might as well...

I signed up for a marathon never having run in a 5k before. I was 28. I trained and I survived. So you’re good!

Thank you. That is an irritant I can do without, especially when it skips a song I was into

Cloudy, mid-30s for today’s RUN SLC 5k. First run outdoors in months, but there haven’t been a whole lotta runs, so there’s that. Felt great, ran faster than expected, but really just happy to be there. Oh, and the event we did tonight went off with out a hitch, and although it was down to the...
