CK...did you win the race???? Inquiring minds want to know.

wow,
i just found this thread...
you guys are freakin' hysterical !
can't believe i missed this one.
to answer your practically month old question...
i finished. it sucked. worst 10k time i ever had (1:02ish...).
15 degrees with the wind chill made for a real shock to my mary-assed system, i trained in the gym exclusively for this one (no road work), i really wasn't prepared for that icey romp through the wind-battered tundra.
but, no excuses, i'm a dog, 'prolly should just hang it up, but i do it so my kids get a laugh. until you've heard these words from your "cracking up so hard they've got tears in their eyes" offspring, you haven't lived:

"hey dad, some old lady running in a SKIRT beat you !!! "

yessir, makes it all worth it.
thanx for askin'...

You did better than I would have because if it aint got a motor I aint interested..... lol

Hey ck didnt know you were a runner. I have completed 3 marathons; the Boston and the Honolulu twice. 26.2 miles..... talk about your lower body going numb and wondering what the hell you ever decided to do this for.....
I ran all 3 in about 4 hours, 20 minutes.... of course the guy who won the last Honolulu marathon I was in (a Kenyan) ran it in 2 hours, 10 minutes. He was running faster at mile 21 than I have ever ran in my life!!!!

Hey at least you finished it. That in itself is an achievement.

Its amazing how runner do that. I have short, chunky legs from years and years of squatting and deadlifts. And Im an old man now. I can NOT run. I waddle. Ive even been known to scamper on occasion. But run? No sir. Unless there is a fire, someone is chasing me or a really good sale on red ackies.

what do you mean we don't discriminate ?...
have you seen how they treat those poor defenseless flippers in the saloon ? !

Thats not discrimination, thats justice! :D

You got a point there, but I'm yet to see them defend themselves. Must have something to do with needing a spine? :lol:

wow that's great bud.
most i ever did was 1/2 marathon. i've done that (13.1) twice, and i've done a bunch of 10 mile races, lately 10k (6.2 for all the non-metrics out there) seems like all i've got time to train for. it's a big time commitment to ramp up for them long ones, and though i don't mind the feeling of being in that kinda shape, i can't seem to make it a priority lately.
amazing how consistent your times were for three separate runs like that.
fastest i ever ran the half was 1:53. all 'a my runnin' buds and gals are faster than me but i don't care. i only run cause if i don't sign up for a race, i've got nothing to force me to stay in shape. it ends up being the need to not totally embarrass myself that makes me do it. don't run 'cause i love it, that's for sure.
good to know you got the jam brotha, one more cool thing we didn't know about you. i admire the drive it takes to go that long, it's alot to go half that as far as i'm concerned.
ck

I did have an advantage as part of my work day in the Army was physical training every morning. For 2 months before the marathons, we would run 15 to 20 miles everyday with a Saturday run of the full 26 miles. I also did the perimeter run on Oahu which is a 5 person team with a van. Each team member would run for 5 miles and then get back in the van and someone else would run 5 miles. Every person ran 25 miles. It sucked getting out of that van to run again after sitting there for an hour or more.....
I also did the Batan Death March twice. Its 20 miles in full combat gear.... Talk about shin splints!!! OUCH!!!!!!!

My hats off to you guys... I had to run a mile at the academy... and it about killed me. I prob couldnt do it now if I had to.

The LAPD always has a team run at the Honolulu marathon.... they had some hot chicks on their team the last year I ran it! Kept me motivated!!!!

them steps are single file if i recall (25 year+ cobwebs involved ) or at least not quite big enough for two troops abreast.
i bet they enjoyed that... especially the slow guys !
great view from the observation deck on top.
you can see waikiki beach from there, but you sure can't see the bikinis !
i bet you were everyone's fave CO, must've been fun times,
