Finished my first 5K!

Recommended Posts

Hey, TNG I know we have had our problems in the past, but if you would send me a scratch and sniff picture of your underwear after your next 5K race, I think I would be willing to forgive you. Just sayin'

Instead of continuing to drone on and on about the pro's and con's of TNG running a local 5k in whatever time she did, why not talk about the folks that ran Chicago on Sunday.

 

I had several friends who told me it was the worst thing ever !

My boss told me about it yesterday, very sad. She's run the Chicago marathon twice and she said that she couldn't imagine what they were going through.

I would think that people who dedicate their lives to the sport of running would have known better than to run in that weather. What did they expect?

You don't have to dedicate your life to running a marathon. Many people, myself included, set it as one of their goals in life.

 

I have run Chicago and know for a fact that it would be awful to train for months, pay for the marathon (usually $100), travel to Chicago and have that be your 1st marathon experience.

what happened? I heard some dude died because of a bad heart, but other than that, what was the deal?

 

 

 

while I'm at it, way to go TNG. I walk/run 3 miles on the treadmill 2-3 times a week. I just got an email about participating in a 5K for breast cancer coming up the end of October. I might do it, but even in decent shape, don't think I could run the whole way. That's a great accomplishment for you!

They closed the race course a few hours into the race. So if you weren't at a certain point, you were not allowed to continue. First time ever this has happen

 

They also ran out of liquids, the first aid stations were overwhelmed and about 400 people went to the hospital.

 

......other than that, just a normal race

It was in the 90's in Chicago. Runners complained that there was not enough water. race organizers blamed the early runners for pouring cups of water over their heads. It was poorly thought out by the race organisers and may end up hurting Chicago's bid for the 2016 olympics. There were many many runners who did not even bother to try running. I think like 10,000 people who had registered did not run.

way to go!

 

where did u start the event? middle of the pack? near the back?

 

one time when i was 15, my friend and i ran a 10k and this was before chips in the shoes etc..so we wanted to get close to the starting line so our already bad time wouldnt be worse...

 

and we snuck up right behind joan benoit samuellson...we said a nervous HI to her and then realized that we didnt belong anywhere near there! and we started to head towards the back...

 

the first half can sprint for awhile...and if u cant keep up..we could..but being the first run we ever did..we werent 100% sure..its like running of the bulls and u run scared...there isnt any stopping now...

TNG,

 

Are you planning your next race? Don't stop.

 

 

Yup, all ready registered and paid for the 10K on Thanksgiving Day. It's local, so I don't have to drive far, etc.

 

It's called the Folsom Turkey Trot. :banana:

I can think of a couple of reasons off the top of my head...

We ran one in Folsom on that bike path over by the hospital a few years back. Can't remember the name of it though. It was really well organized.

 

Good luck!

The chances of me taking a 2-3 hour drive from SF up to your neck of the woods one night after the training are pretty focking slim. IF I come out Saturday (which I might), I might consider a roadtrip on Sunday. Otherwise, like last time, it probably isn't going to happen. :wave: I'll be out there sat/sun through Wednesday.

Depends, where do you want me to come?

be careful, she might go all addict on you and start making up elaborite stories, and you'll be called a doosh on this board cause you flirted back a few times, even though you never touched her or asked to touch her....

not saying that TNG would pull a classless move like that here, cause I'm sure she wouldn't, but just saying... pot, meet kettle. I believe you called me a doosh cause of that, even though what is going on here is worse cause she's married :pointstosky:

No, I think it was off of Creekside Drive...??? It has been about 5 years since I lived in Folsom.

good thing I didn't write whether anyone believed me or not, especially seeing I don't care.

I was just pointing out the hilarity of the matter. He called me a doosh, and he's doing worse than what I did ;)

the irony is almost more than I can take :lol:
