I agree. I feel like Keke is way more Robin/Pippen than Batman/Jordan. I'd prefer to play Agholor or Johnson, just not sure which one...
Why? They've already said that if he plays, there's a good chance that he'll be limited.
I never believe that.
Like a bunch of dudes talking about cadence and GPS watches and mile splits isn't nerdy??
Hey, comparing weather forecasts for 5AM is cool. chicks love this stuff.Like a bunch of dudes talking about cadence and GPS watches and mile splits isn't nerdy??
If you like science fiction, The Expanse is really good. Not sure how to describe it, but if you want "Marvel Heroes Gone Bad", The Boys is really fun. Both on Amazon Prime.
It sounds like you bounced right back from the fall. Great news. Knee ok during the run?
The most important part of winter running right there. Quantity of miles don't really matter. You'll get more work out of half the mileage relative to normal conditions. This is why it takes a narrow set of circumstances to consider the dreadmill. More benefits battling the elements than retreating to the comfortable confines of the hamster wheel.
Thanks. It was sore, but a lot of stuff was sore, either from the fall or likely from running on ice and utilizing a different set of muscles than I'm used to. But TBH...it's not bothering me now at all, so good news there- thanks for asking.
I don't have access to a treadmill, so it's outdoor running or bust for me.
I can definitely vouch for the Hanson method. No way I go sub 4:00 without it. But, the increased mileage (for me) clearly played a role. On the previous two marathons I certainly ran out of gas, but I also know I didn’t run enough mileage. But I sure felt pretty damn good the last 6 miles of Carmel. I attribute that to Hanson for sure. That plan did exactly what the book outlined.
That's what I did last winter. Even had a 70 mile week 2 weeks before my plan began. Everything really seemed to be coming together when the pandemic hit as I was preparing to turn into peak.
The Hansons just want you to follow the guidelines of runs less than 3 hours and the long run should be less than 25-33% of your weekly mileage. So for some like yourself there is no issue with running a 18-20 miler in marathon training, I maxed out at 18 when I had my marathon PR.Juxtatarot said:
Now, look at the long range...load up on those miles early this week, outdoor runners!
Thanks! I had an unproductive stretch a week or so ago but I’m back to “peaking” now.
I'm getting mine in 3 hours. Mrs. GM got hers 3 days ago.Big news in the Blind Ref household.....
1. Peloton bike is arriving this afternoon between 12 and 3. So I'll probably be running less in 2021.
2. Heading to Aruba from 12/23 to 12/31. I can't wait to get to run in 80 degrees. Cheap flights and hotel on points made this a no brainer (other than obviously COVID nervousness.) We all have our N95 masks for the flight.
3. My sister is a physician and on Saturday she got the vaccine. It was cool to see hope starting to spread around the vaccine. I hope it continues. Guessing @gianmarco will be the first to get vaccinated in this group, unless @tri-man 47 fits in the elderly care age group.
We're heading to Cozumel tomorrow for a week...same cheap fares and points for hotels.Big news in the Blind Ref household.....

The Mrs. (Eta...don't care about you)
She just had some arm soreness the next morning. Otherwise nothing. In fact, she finished a 51 mile week including a long run yesterday.
Still July since the Mesa Marathon is postponed. Might look at some other races for March, but a brief search wasn't promising for candidates. This is probably the best one at this point. Same weekend as we had planned, although she's behind in her training due to illness/work/continued IT band issues. So I don't think it'll happen.
