It really is quite unbelieveable that I can post about a very modest 12 miler, and talk about PF, and you can somehow complain about it. You did see the PF discourse that followed your 5 troll posts, right? Guys, am I really the only person here who sees RD for what he is?
Back to the thread topic: I'm dreaming of an 8 miler soon, with the last 4 miles at 28:30ish....this is the next step for me. (And it's all TRUTH too!!!) :)
RD, Skuj:
did ya think of starting your own thread? Kinda like Elvis and Costello? Laurel and Hardy? ....LOL....

:) Yeah.....I know this is irritating, guys. But this is serious stuff. RD likes to now call me a stalker and a creep. But HE has followed me to at least 2 other forums, and been banned about 8 times. He has no clue what I know and who I have spoken to. I guess I'd rather "engage" someone like that, than not. Makes me less concerned. My goal is to actually make him "get it", but I'm not holding my breath. Do you really think the 5 posts which followed my 12 miler report were not him?
This forum is being read by "letsrun.com". They'll be very interested in RD hinting that me might be a mod, as well as, once again, calling me a creep and a stalker.
I won't go away. I started DYRT. I've been a registered letsrunner for 3-4 years. I'm here to stay, and if RD doesn't like that, too bad.
Skuj,
"we" (imagine i am not the only one tho think this) are "vaccinated-adults" as we say in this part of the world to be "irritated." You know, we have irritation anti-bodies.
Just gauging the possibility of transforming conflict into an alliance of sorts...

:) tpcb, I'll keep posting my runs here, we'll have some discussion, maybe, like yesterday, there will be a lot of trollism following my reports, or maybe, just maybe, there will not be any more trollism.
let's just see what happens, shall we? :) But, I'll try to just make my reports from here on in........
Skuj,as Joseph II said in Amadeus: "Well, there it is."Gotta sleep for my Half.

For the record, I have never claimed to be a mod. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I prefer not to give away too much about myself to keep irritable people from getting too close. I will let others weigh the evidence and decide who is stalking whom.
Also, I continue to reinforce the idea that DYRT is about all of us. A certain someone continues to want to take credit for starting this thread, but the truth is apparently otherwise. It is about all of us and not one person.
Keep up the good work, all (most)!

"Well, there it is."
Today, I ran 8 miles in 61:49. ( 2 x 4 mile loops in 32:51 and 28:58.) I felt like going substantially faster on the second loop, once I had warmed up my PF foot, but alas, a hamstring twinge was my body's way of saying "take it really easy for now." 28:58 is new territory.
"Well, there it is."

A cold and windy 1h 45m run up Mt Macedon and up to the Camel Hump. Thick cloud and some rain up top, nice to run in those conditions for a change. Pretty solid effort on the climbs and stretched out a little on a few downhills.
Yesterday am. was an hour on the mtn bike around Lake Eppalock, nearly skittled a big brown snake, he wasn't happy! Did a brisk 40 min run mostly flat trails in the pm.
Got up early and hit the roads. I love early Sunday morning runs. Everything is so quiet and peaceful. Makes me yearn for the old days of DYRT. Ha ha! Cranked out a few easy miles. Felt myself picking up the pace during the second half of the run, but I reigned myself in and kept to a modest pace. I'm not yet ready for anything too quick. Time is on my side.
Keep up the good work, all!

10X300m in 40 seconds, time certainly is on your side.
From what I have observed of this thread, both "Skuj" and "Running Dogg" appear to have over half of the trolling posts on this thread. If there is a post that seems favored towards one of them or the other, it is pretty easy to tell it is either "Skuj" or "Running Dogg" themselves. Most other registered posters don't care about the argument and are pretty much nuetral. They both claim the other is stalking them. I am sure they are both weird individuals. They should both probably get a life instead of harassing each other and trying to claim dominance over a thread on a running website. Honestly, if you two are arguing over who started the thread, that is extremely sad for one reason. It really doesn't matter who starts a thread, just who makes the most positive constributions. Neither of your posts battling back and forth about who is trolling or stalking or creeping the other is positive. It is pretty pathetic. Get a life, both of you. And grow the f*** up.
rundog you are the biggest troll ever; posting to yourself like that. Right on your reg time too.:)
So how about that 10x300 in 40.
Please tell us about it.

btw isnt this almost the same as skujs last report? crppy indeed.
- it think the Roma Ostia Half site is jammed can't get results, ran without a watch
- sometimes it really seems like Skuj and RD are one and the same!
I've given up trying to figure out the splits, twists, and labyrinths these trolls construct.
I'm Going skiing.
tpcb ,What were the conditions like for that half??
driske,
I cycled to the start this morning at 7:30.
At first condimeteo were ok: mild temp, humid, overcast with a reasonable headwind for added fatigue. The headwind grew stronger, cold rain started, and was quite a dampner in the last 2kms.
I ran in vibrams like last year. The first half at 3:56-4:00mins/km and then slowed down some. Wasn't tired but couldn't/didn't want to go faster. Didnt feel fuelled right maybe. At 14km the 1:24 pacer group picked me up: stayed with them for about 2k and then slowed down again. Finished around 1:27:30.
What I am happy about is i have fully recovered already; i cycled back to work like a bat out of hell. No soreness, stifness, contracture of any sorts (especially not in my calves)
Last year i went faster (about 1m30s) but did not feel this OK afterwards. I suppose its an ok test for marathon coming up in three weeks.
What do you think? I want to run one more long run of at least 2h45mins...
:)
Today I did 60min grass jog + 4x60m grass strides (17, 15, 14, 20) + 1 mile track jog - just trying to get used to faster striding and track running. It was good - the pf was under control, and no complaints from the hamstring.

That should read 17, 15, 14, 12 for the 60s. Hopefully, by the end of the months, a 100-200m stride will get near 800m pace.

10x300m in 40sec.....not.

I think it's awesome to run a half in Vibrams. It speaks well of your stride mechanics and overall form.
A long run should be beneficial. Personally I like to keep the pace real easy on the long runs, and insert a few relatively short pickups to keep the legs alive.
A friend of mine recommends a hard out 2 min. run the day before a marathon to maximize intramuscular glycogen storage. Sounds different and it's nothing I've ever tried.
But his 2:55 at Napa Valley today is a strong testament to his training methodology.(Dave is 55)
8.25 miles stride skiing. Brilliant sunshine and moderate temps in mid teens F. Rolling glacial terrain along the Ice Age Trail.
