C-R pulled a fast one and ran 15.4 yesterday then didn't log it promptly; didn't mention it when he was out here either. Then he gave me beer so that I'd slack off in the evening. A diabolical plot and it worked, I thought he took the day off and I had built a comfy cushion. That's ok. I am now on vacation.....

Crap. Well I guess I poked the bear ra. The cat can fend for itself. There are miles to run.
In my defense, I did mention I didn't quite make it 16 but with all the rounds firing off and the hearing protection who can tell what was said. A rest day is good. We are testing the limits but don't want any injuries.

So it looks like the only way we may be able to win this thing is to get spaniel too drunk to run. Hmmmm......

I was probably too busy changing mags...
As for poking the bear, yes rabutler is getting too cocky. I think it's time to take him down a notch. After all, I'm now on vacation and in full control of my schedule. I also have daycare the next 2 days. Other than a broken tractor to fix tomorrow, I've got nothing to do but run.

How far can you run pulling a broken tractor behind you?
Just wonderin'
It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

I'm back a little early. I'm now the proud father of a United State Air Force Pilot, and apparently, his cat. Because of his assignment we'll be cat sitting for a while, so I had to bag the Louisiana portion of my trip. I'll start a thread and post some pics later this evening. I hope everyone has had good couple of days of running and all illnesses and pains are getting better. Enjoy that beer while you can spaniel. Looks like that big lead is shrinking.

Yes, congratulations to you and your son!

Actually, it was right before the massive soda bottle hunt.
Yeah. I know your schedule is free so today it forced me to run 4 prior to working 8 1/2 hours making pizzas at Lucas Oil (volunteering/fundraiser for soccer club) and then got in another 5 tonight. I have a 7 am flight and might be able to sneak in a few miles if I get up at 4 and then double when I get home at 7. We will see.

So I doubled for 16 today, holding the volume down to get some real work in, and I LOST ground?
You bastards are SO hosed this week.
MTA: I see the score now. rabutler "going on a trip until Monday with little running" then returning early due to a "cat" to log extra miles....you being busy all day but still doubling...I get it. OK. There's only one way to respond to this...
Damn you Spaniel...another week, same old story. You hit 16 first, I get a double in to get to 16.1 and see that you got another 5. I'm going for another 80 this week. So far, lunch runs tomorrow and Wednesday already seem to be out the door. As long as I don't get hosed and miss a day, I should be fine.
Ha. Sorry. rabutler was too cocky yesterday and it was pretty nice here today so I've been covering some distance. I like to start the week off strong.
I was totally spoiled at last hotel since the fitness room was open 24/7. Tonight was a rude awakening. Got on treadmill with 32 minutes to run and for 32:02 I did. Stopped just as the lady from the front desk was coming in. Tomorrow is going to be another long day of traveling but by airplane instead of car. Can I just click my heals and be home?????

So Spaniel pretty much ran a 3hr marathon today...just sayin.
Crap. The bear is awake. C-R, it looks like we may be hosed.
It looks like my treadmill may be effed up again. During my cooldown this morning the speed just took off. After turning it on and off the speed controls didn't seem to work. A couple more power cycles and it seems to be working now, but I'll be making a call at lunch time to get this looked at.
Oh, and the cat in question, since there seems to be some doubt about her existence.
She's not too happy about being in the same house as a dog.
So you'll be doing unplanned speed workouts, ra?
