    The poor animal had to be terrified.  :rofl:     
    Nutso.

    Speaking of the Broad Street Run I was dissapointed to have to defer my entry to 2022.  With my training schedule I have to run 25 miles on Saturday and there was not any easy way to fit in 10 miles in a giant crowd of yahoos with the other 15 miles and not make me feel like I was either doing too much or too little for my body. 
    Look forward to it next year....
    Still have three other areas runs coming up with this is the funny one I was looking forward to.

    Anyone here running it?

    Haven't run it in years, but I think 2022 will be my return. Wait, so why are you running 25 fucking miles? Are you doing a marathon soon?

    My training just went nowhere this year - I did do a five mile race in June in Narberth. That's about it.

    I am doing the Schuylkill River 50K Ultra at the end of this month - being 31 miles this week is my peak as far as the training program in prep for the Ultra.

    Will do the Run The Bridge 10K the week after that -- this is such a cool run if you have never done it....running over/back on the Ben Franklin is sweet.
    Closing this running season with the Philadelphia Marathon just before Thanksgiving.
    Not sure how this will go, given that my entire year has been about gearing up for an October 30th Ultra...so my training will be off.  Don't much care, though, as the focus was on the longer run so this will just be the cherry on top.

    Then, I will rest.  :lol:  

    Still kicking around the idea of a 50 Mile Ultra next year, but not sure if I want to make that commitment.  Serious time involved in all of this training -- and also in trying to eat enough to fuel this endurance shit and ice/stretch enough each day for my body to still work.


    Cliffy, is the Mrs doing the Half again this year?

    I don't think so. I think she'll be in the mayhem this Sunday though.

    That is wild, dude.  Good for you.

    Ha, damn, good stuff, man. Have you down the Rocky Run? Just the thought of all that has my knees throbbing right now.

    I turn 40 next year. I've made my goal to do the Escape the Cape & Tri the Wildwoods triathlons. We'll see how this goes.

    Also, FYI - the "Italian Pride Parade" will be going on, too, down Broad Street (figure in the afternoon). Don't know the logistics of all this, but something to be aware of if you plan on lingering after finishing up.

    I have not done the Rocky Run.
    I was never a runner...life happened and my frustrations with an issue I had no control over lead me to charging head on into running and that just somehow lead to me saying I wanted to run a 50 mile race before I hit 50.

    47 now.

    The triathlons seem like a great time but I am not a swimmer.  I can swim - have a pool, etc...but I am not really a swimmer and would need to go back and get lessons and shit.

    My sister got crazy into Spartan a few years back and did the "trifecta" series -- blew out her knee in the first part of one of the races and finished anyway.
    The 26.2 I ran last year, I did it with a torn tendon in my ankle.

    Think that beating the shit out of my body to help my brain needs to change gears.

    The next thing, for me -- regardless of if that is 2022 or if I decide to do the 50 miles in 2022 and then next thing starts in 2023....is getting down the Wim Hof method. 
    I don't know why this rings a bell with my crazy head, but it does.  I will get a copper/cold tub and a full year hot tub (ours closes for winter now) and totally get into this until I can train my body to be able to embrace the cold.


    Honestly, once I tapped into this driven/physical way of living I don't think there is any way I want to stray too far from it.  There is something tremendously gratifying, to me, in the challenge of the type of goals I need to work at every single day.

    Guess I am a weirdo but I am totally good with that!

    I heard that people max out at 20-mile training runs even for ultra-marathons, which seems weird. Anyway best of luck!!!

    Delco poll worker training on Saturday - maybe I'll run into Frank from Havertown (from the training video).

    Yeah, that might be foolish for ultras.  For marathons, that is frequently the benchmark for people.  You need to extend your mileage slowly to try and prevent injury.  One of our fellow 10c members just ran a 100 mile race and he was running much further and doing b2b long run days.  If you went from 20 miles as your long to 30 that is way too large an increase. 

    I actually adapted my marathon regimen to this Ultra, since it is a short Ultra.  [Increased the plan by 19%]  The research I did for the longer races has far more mileage.  As it is the icing and stretching is kinda crazy!

    Got salmon curry at Reading Terminal and pretty sure the guy yelled at me about playing on my phone in line. Don't ever change Little Thai Market!
