    QUOTE (rbeaud @ May 17 2010, 04:02 PM) Amazing what you can do by logging a few miles. Jees, that's been my mantra for years now :) I owe my breakthroughs just to a couple of years of increased mileage. It's amazing how simple it is. Awesome job - and there's nothing worse that feeling...

    QUOTE (Kremlin Watcher @ Apr 16 2010, 03:52 PM) For those of you with the time and the inclination, you can follow the race on baa.org. The search function will be active on race day and the process of how to search should be clear. For the search, you will need to enter my bib number for the...

    QUOTE (Kremlin Watcher @ Apr 16 2010, 03:52 PM) Well, this marathon isn't going to run itself. I am off to Boston early tomorrow to pick up my race pack, bib number and chip. Spending the weekend in Boston with family to get ready for the big day. I am very excited for the race, despite...

    QUOTE (underhandtofirst @ Apr 15 2010, 09:56 AM) I woke up this morning with my legs feeling better than they have in months. Quads feel a little stiff from the harder effort, but not bad at all. This means to me that I wasnt at my limit as far as intensity is concerned. I have to stay out...

    I hope everyone is doing well - Spring is here and that means the start of racing season! I had my MRI last week and I had my follow up with my orthopedic to go over the results. Good news - no tear, bad news - nothing really showed up on the MRI (scar tissue, etc) so he really didn't know...

    QUOTE (Joe Sixpack @ Apr 2 2010, 07:36 PM) I tried to sign up, but didn't make it. Was on Blackberry at 12pm, filled out form and just got a blank white page. Finally got to a computer around 2pm and saw that it sold out at 12:45. :( Damn, they give you a few cases for finishing? What...

    QUOTE (GregHarris @ Mar 25 2010, 11:29 AM) Ok, I need some help here. Looking for one or two 5K's between now and the end of May. Anyone know of any coming up? If you're near/about the Merrimack Valley area, the Good Times series is starting their Spring series on Tuesday nights...

    QUOTE (underhandtofirst @ Mar 12 2010, 10:55 AM) I'm getting a kick out of dailymile so far. It could be really helpful during the summer when the training gets harder. Dave, what are your plans for the next 3-4 months? Do you have longer range plans for the fall? Is this what gets you...

    QUOTE (Trautwein's Degree @ Mar 6 2010, 08:45 AM) Hope you feel better BleacherFan. Don't worry, I'll start plenty back. How is the course? I can't seem to find elevation charts on their website. My vague memory is as follows: 1st Mile is a slight uphill and then you take a left and go...

    I must say I am jealous reading about all the racing, planning and training going on. After two solid months of base building I have to shut it down for 3-4 months. I have had some possible health problems come up and after talking to a doctor and a specialist, we've decided to shut it down to...

    QUOTE (AusTexSoxFan @ Feb 15 2010, 11:38 AM) Hey everyone! A great day yesterday. Finished in 3:56 and met my goal of breaking four hours. First time I have ever done that. So yesterday turned out to be a good day weather-wise. Temp at the start was clear and 43 degrees, but I knew it would...

    QUOTE (AusTexSoxFan @ Feb 12 2010, 04:23 PM) About to walk out the door to get my race packet for Sunday's marathon. Will be sure to check back with y'all afterwards for a report. Good luck, get some rest and I hope the weather cooperates! QUOTE And I very nearly caught the group of three...

    QUOTE (underhandtofirst @ Feb 9 2010, 09:57 AM) Nice run. I like that second mile in that race, the gradual downhill gets you into a nice rhythm and keeps the turnover up. Looking at the weather history you had wind gusts near 20mph almost directly in your face the last 1.5 miles and there...

    QUOTE (Joe Sixpack @ Feb 8 2010, 09:35 PM) Did the Krispy Kreme Challenge for the 2nd time over the weekend. The race is 2.3 miles, stop to eat a dozen donuts, then 2.3 miles (slightly longer distance than last year). Finished in 46:30. 37:40 for the running part and just under 9 minutes...

    QUOTE (Kremlin Watcher @ Jan 29 2010, 09:40 AM) In any case, I wanted to ask you something. In doing research on barefoot/minimalist running, I found an interesting proposition (which may or may not be totally true, but seems to make sense): one doesn't naturally pronate or supinate from...
