the crowd was yelling near the finish line, and one lady shouted at me 'you've come this far run the rest!' so i started running. it worked well for about 30 feet and then i almost ate it when my knee gave out again
 
Good work on finishing, dude! Now rest up and let that knee get better!!!

Turns out I actually did 19, not 18 yesterday, and I did another 10 today. I found out the hard way that I need an extra layer underneath my cheap Starter running pants; plain old briefs do not help cut the wind at all and I was a hurtin' swamp dawg when I got back!

Haha, my son's weiner freezes unless he triple layers. He refuses to urinate when it's cold outside. :biggrin:
 
LOL, thanks Mega, I'm sure your son appreciates you talking about his weiner to strange people on message boards... Probably just as much as I appreciate hearing about it! 😛 The worst part is, I did have to stop and take a leak on that run, too, so that just made it even worse. I need to invest in a pair of those wind-stopper briefs.

Anyway, I did an easy 11 today before the snow hits. I'm supposed to run with a friend at 6am tomorrow, but with 8-14" of snow expected tonight, I'll be surprised if he shows up!

He's not bashful, if he saw my post he'd laugh. My wife on the other hand, she would be unhappy to know about it. She's the proper one of the bunch.

I experienced this for the first time the other week. It wasn't the freezing itself that hurt, it was the thawing. I never want to feel that pain again. :'(

When you're cheering on finishers, it's often tough to tell who just needs a little extra motivation and who has slowed down for a good reason. I've seen the same thing before and you definitely feel bad if you accidentally push someone to do something they shouldn't have.
 
I only doubled for 9 on Saturday, but I did a progression run on the dreadmill in the evening and ended with a 6:00 mile so I figure that makes up for running one mile less than I planned. I did 8 yesterday and 17 today. My GPS died 10 miles in, and I was supposed to run the last 4 miles at marathon pace, so I just pushed the last 5 or 6 miles. Felt like 6:15-6:30 pace but I guess I'll never know! All I know is I felt amazing, which is surprising since I was just a wee bit hungover this morning! But for some reason going for a long hard run is the perfect cure for a hangover for me. Weird.

+4 last Wednesday, +3 yesterday. I've started cranking up the incline on the treadmill so that running outdoors will seem easier once it warms up.

Did 4 with my dog this morning...I wonder if I should just log mine or add my dog's too :biggrin:

Well the winter is thawing out so I'm hitting the road again.

7.5 this week to start out (3 days of 2.5). Will increase once it warms up more.
