ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Holly!
Thanks, George!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Holly!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Holly!
ReplyDeleteSigned up for the Turkey Trot. They will close it out if/when it hits a certain number, no race day registration.
Strenuous 24 lap Indian Run yesterday. Did my bit for 20 laps then Keith and Sean switched on the afterburners, knew I was toast then...
ReplyDeleteHAPPY HOLLY-DAY!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy B-day Holly! Also... I have not run Manassas Battlefield .. Is it all bumpy trails like Burke Lake?
ReplyDeleteRegistered for Turkey Trot today.
ReplyDeleteNancy,
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a lot like Burke Lake with a mix of single track, gravel road and grass trails. The hills are a little more challenging. One of the nicest places to run in the area.
Last night's Indian run was fun. Peter started us out at a quick pace for the 6 miles. Sean started to take off for the last mile and I did my best to stay with him. Metric marathon legs are starting to recover.
ReplyDeleteFYI,
ReplyDeleteI have a friends/family discount at Brooks (end of Nov./early Dec.). 30% off on all merchandise.
Thanks Keith.
ReplyDeleteI guess I will have to wait til next week for sat group run. I dont think I will try 4 wheelin with the jogging stroller and a loose ankle ;-)
I will be running the Kinhaven 5k in Arlington tomorrow. I think Peter might be videotaping the race finish. Should have some fast runners. Hoping for a PR on a downhill finish on an up and back course on the WOD.
ReplyDeleteTo the barefoot Rogues and Rogues with kids, the Kinhaven 5k is the place to be next year. They had awards for fastest barefoot/vibram runners and fastest stroller pushers. Very family friendly with face painting and a kids 1k. There was good schwag from the North Face, Power Bar and good food at the finish. You can also head over to the Original Pancake House, like the Freeburns, when it's all over.
ReplyDeleteNice Keith. I will keep in mind for next year for certain! Sounds like a fun 5K!!
ReplyDeleteAnyone showing for track tonight...??
ReplyDeleteI'll be there.
ReplyDeleteI'll be there Nancy! Gotta get some run in before I go home and eat eat eat!
ReplyDeleteSorry,
ReplyDeleteI ended up staying dry and went to the gym. Hopefully you guys got in some good speedwork. See you at the turkey trot!
Kinhaven...marking that for next year. Barefoot with a stroller...it's on!!!
ReplyDeleteBob-
ReplyDeleteYour on for Kinhaven. I will have to trade kids then we will have a race....?? Sadly...you will still smoke me. But it will be fun to try! ;-)
When and where will we meet up for the Turkey Trot?
At the flag pole? time? See you tomorrow am...bright and early Turkey Trotters!
The plan is to meet tomorrow at 7:15am across the parking lot from the community center doors. We'll take a big group picture and then go warm-up! See everyone in the morning!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck to everyone running tomorrow! and Happy Thanksgiving :)
ReplyDeleteAlright! Getting pumped for this one. Look forward to seeing everyone out there tomorrow morning. Dress for cold weather. I'll be wearing my singlet and booty shorts.

Good speed workout last night. Definitely different without Peter there to get everyone going. Get well soon Peter!
ReplyDeleteI'm really missing these workouts, my last run was on Friday. Doc says I need one more day to heal so I can resume Thursday evening. Will do some long slow runs Thursday/Friday then speed it up over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteEverybody read Peter's tips on how to win a medal in the new Runner's World. Yes, that Runner's World. Peter is famous. He;s the second Rogue Racer to appear in the magazine.
ReplyDeleteWho was the first?
ReplyDeleteI need an autograph!
ReplyDeletePrint edition? Couldn't find it. The clock is ticking on my 15 minutes...
