Steve 1:17:19 HALF

That's crazy fast!

Women's race is crazy. This Felix chick is walking away. 1:18 lead on heartbreak hill.

 

[tri-man 47]

Lead female is really laboring ...and just looked back. I think she's toast.

Yeah that head down on every other breath is a dead give away.

It's a huge lead, but she looks like she's on the verge of the wheels falling off.

 

[Ned]

19:41 for Steve's 25K.

 

[koby925]

They are reeling her in.

 

[Ned]

Love what I'm seeing in Grue's splits: 22:19, 22:03, 22:08, 21:57

 

[beer 302]

They are reeling her in.

Yep just noticed the pack of Kenyan's tracking her down like food, gonna be close but I think she's done.

It'll be close! The lead has dropped to less than a minute with about 3 miles to go ...

 

[Ned]

They are reeling her in.

C'mon Shalane!!

 

[tri-man 47]

19:41 for Steve's 25K.

This is a great job by him

 

[Ned]

19:41 for Steve's 25K.

ooh, a fair amount of drop-off, and this is before Newton. C'mon Steve!!!

Grue half @ 1:33:17. He's looking poised for a great run, IMO.

Jux half @ 1:30:28. 3:00 still in sight!

 

[tri-man 47]

Improved 10K splits for Workhorse and wilked ...I suspect their corral of charity runners made the first miles a dodge-fest.

 

[koby925]

Hang in there Shalane!

 

[Ned]

Workhorse 10K @ 52:40 (3:42 pace)

Wilked 10K @ 54:00 (3:47 pace)

 

[Ned]

19:41 for Steve's 25K.

ooh, a fair amount of drop-off, and this is before Newton. C'mon Steve!!!

Hope he's alright. 30K - 22:46

Grue is steady Eddie @ 22:01 25K.

Jux @ 22:08 25K. Hold on, GB.

 

[koby925]

[koby925]

Workhorse graudally improving per 5k - 25:56 on the 3rd one

ETA - Wilked doing the same 26:14 on last 5k

22:41 for grue (adding seconds, remember).

SteveC and gruecd still on pace for a Boston PR, though Steve's time dropoff is worrisome.

Juxt on pace for a marathon PR!

 

[koby925]

Steve 23:18 5k from 30-35. 2:18:53 overall

 

[tri-man 47]

Cheer 'em on, guys. I gotta go to a long lunch meeting and will miss the finishes.

 

[BassNBrew]

23.27 for Jux, projected 3:05 finish. Hang on dude.

 

[BassNBrew]

25:45 for Gru, he's at the 30 mark.

Tracking is lagging by 15 minutes.

 

[BassNBrew]

1:51 for Workhorse at the half. Staying steady.

 

[BassNBrew]

1:52 for Wilked at the half. On pace to shatter his marathon pr at Boston!!!

 

[Ned]

25:45 for Gru, he's at the 30 mark.

Tracking is lagging by 15 minutes.

Tough 30K for both grue and jux. Cmon guys!

 

[koby925]

Nice! Sending some good vibrations (and energy) to the guys approaching the finish.

I eat lots of grilled meat.

 

[koby925]

Poor Steve may not realize where he is right now. 25:36 last 5k. Hang in there, Steve-o, less than 2k to go

 

[Ned]

DO IT!

Post updates on your training runs. Everyone's here to help.

 

[BassNBrew]

Steve's having a bad day and still will break 3 hours at Boston. That's one talented and fast guy.

Exactly what I was about to say.

 

[BassNBrew]

25:14 for Jux over the last 5k. At the 35k mark. Anyone know where that falls on the course? Is HBH behind him?

 

[koby925]

Grue 29:08 5k at 35k

 

[BassNBrew]

29:08 for gru. He's also at the 30k mark.

 

[Ned]

HBH is @ mile 20-21, so yup he's over it!

 

[koby925]

I think so. Never run the race but the announcers were saying the hills were miles 16-20. 35K is 21+ miles in. I think 30-35k is the toughest 5k and likely where HBH is

Roger that. Have a 5k "course" through my neighborhood mapped out with some nice hills and such. I have the Couch to 5k app and it seemed a bit... aggressive for day 1... 1 min jogging / 1.5min aggressive walking rotation for a starting point? Seem right? I'm not exactly a huge guy and I play a good bit of kickball/softball but I was sucking wind hard halfway through the schedule. Went out 2 days later and just did my own thing running when I could for as long as I could then walked till i got my wind back. ETA: this was really my 2nd time ever "running/jogging" for any distance... finished around 35 mins... with about 60% walking I'd guess. Also I have a hard time just slow jogging... GF tells me "That's not jogging, that's running!". I try to "jog" and it just sucks... feels totally un natural. someone said something about a natural stride/pace and it's tough to fight. Problem is I don't have the wind to maintain it for very long yet. Looking for feedback here. TIA.

 

[koby925]

Steve finished strong to run 2:54:31

 

[Ned]

2:54:31 for Steve. Great job persevering.

 

[BassNBrew]

Steve is in with a 2:54:31. Qualified for next year.

 

[beer 302]

2:54:31 for Steve. Great job persevering.

LOL, off day

 

[BassNBrew]

Workhorse and Wilked still hanging strong. Long day for these guys. 1pm and they still have a 1/3 of the way to go. Usually you would be into your first cold one by now.

 

[koby925]

What does Jux need to run to Q for next year? 3:15?

 

[BassNBrew]

Jux is next up....
