    It's that time of year again. Maybe she'll do it again?

  2. greatWelsh Infestation 6.52 mi / 00:54 08:15 pace

    Took an easy, dark trot on my normal Andy™ route. While passing many houses that had their indoor garage lights on (probably left on after returning from St. Pat's Day bar trips), I noticed one garage was proudly displaying a large Flag of Wales ins... read more

  3. greatTrail Taper 5 mi / 00:45 09:02 pace

    Just an easy trail run to pray to the trail gods. The stream crossing cement blocks were under water a little bit, so I got my feet wet twice on the short out-and-back.

      Hope the trail gods cooperate for you. They can be fickle this time of year.

    Just taking it easy this week. Tapering for the @HATRun 50k on Saturday.

  5. goodWet-n-Windy 10.15 mi / 01:17 07:34 pace

    Cold mist in my face the whole way. Sometimes the wind was a d@*$!

  6. goodTaper Andy™ 6.52 mi / 00:50 07:39 pace

    Just an easy Andy™ during my taper. 9 days to go until the HAT 50k. Still dealing with an on-and-off left shin issue, but it's not stopping me (yet).

  7. My favorite motivational quote:

    "It just doesn't matter! It just doesn't matter! ..." - Bill Murray, as Tripper Harrison, in the movie "Meatballs" (1979).

      Churchill: "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never -- in nothing, great or small, large or petty--never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

      Oh, I know. I TRIED to keep that in my mind on Sun. when I ran Napa Valley Marathon. My first half was slightly faster than the 2nd though. My previous two marathons were negative splits, though. And the two before that were disaster, wall-hitting, bonkers. ;)

  9. goodTrail Run Sans Camera 10.34 mi / 01:34 09:05 pace

    1st 1/2 of the trail went fine. 2nd 1/2 went too slow. Good to get out in this awesome weather though, before the upcoming rains.
    When I got to the near empty parking lot, an old man was heading to the trail with a chainsaw to continue his effort of ... read more
