A Tradition Gone Awry

I would like to blame our MG poster girl for not being in the race.  But I also have to blame Brightroom, for not stepping up and finding me another fitting representative.  So, after spending too much time attempting to find a replacement, I am giving up.

This week's run - some speed work.  Either 1/2 mile repeats with Duerr, or another interval workout that suits your needs better.  After the run, it has been suggested to head to Bangkok Thai Restaurant, since they will be closed soon for the rest of June.

Some meat for you:
A runners world article on how to correctly diagnose some commonly mistaken running ailments.

Someone also found me a write-up on a miracle cure for shin splints.  I don't suffer from them myself, so someone who does, please attempt this the next time they flare up and let me know if it actually works?

And now the fun, here are some always glamorous mid-run shots of TRYers at the Mountain Goat (I was kind and attempted to grab the nicest ones this year):

Escalade's dad going so fast in the 3K that he had to hold on to his hat.


Kelly, showing off her compression sleeves.


Katie getting back into the racing scene.

Duerr, finishing off his first goat.


Cynthia, finishing things up.


 Steve, about to do the same.



Miss "Delano" thought she could hide by having a typo in her last name.

And with just a hint of John ignoring my pleas from last summer to keep his shirt on.  Which we can find is possible here.

Sue Wait, somehow being invisible since she ran right past me and I had no idea.  (But I grabbed a mid-race shot since she had several available in that stretch and most others did not.)

And Escalade's new friend Shawn carrying the flag near the end of her return to racing.  There were a few good shots of her and her group.


In the quest for fairness...I suppose I can't leave out my photos just because I looked like a pedophile luring little kids back to my van for candy.  So here's an alternate shot that brightroom got of me streaking towards the finish line.


Some people requested my "real" photo...so here it is (non pedophile version):


And I would not be denied in my quest, here is a double dip for those traditionalists out there that thought my post was missing a couple things last week.
