Re: Routes in Lugano Switzerland?

When are you leaving? I know that Dylan Wykes trained in Switzerland just before the 2012 Olympics...I could ask him if he knows anything about Lugano...I don't know where he went to train. Course....he's buried in a diaper pail these days so might take a few days before I hear back from him :lol: ...

Re: "Chickamauga Marathon Winner Disqualified..."

Meanwhile, if we could only find a way to award trinkets for tax returns, fraud would be wiped out by the self-interested vigilance of the masses. Not sure if that's really fair. The woman that figured it out initially came in second-place and was the rightful winner of the women's race. If you wer...

Re: "Better" marathon predictor calculator

I used a couple race times for the year I ran Toronto Marathon.
This calculator predicted a 4:19 fullM. Runner's World predicted 4:00
I ran 4:13 and finished with a little gas left in tank.

Re: Warmer Weather Wednesday

Nice & easy 10km with my dog this morning- up to the Conservation Area for a loop on trails. One the way back though, I had to do one of the grosser things I've ever had to do. As we were running along the street, there was some very squished and wet roadkill. Percy had just enough slack in her...

Re: Yes...I'm a little race horse...

At the 3km mark I was feeling a bit tired but not discouraged and all of a sudden this person popped into my head...a person I've never met.....robinandamelia's partner who died last year at this time and I found myself saying..."okay George...this race is for you". So that helped me keep...

Re: Yes...I'm a little race horse...

So it seems Jo-Jo is taking this "nag" thing seriously… That's a nice result for a comeback race. I was pleased. I have a young friend who's one of Steve Boyd's athletes who has told me he would help me with training plans once I'd built a base. Brant is Steve's assistant coach for the Qu...

The Race: South Ottawa Race Day 5km that starts and finishes on the Carleton Rideau Horse Race Track.

Sounds like a tough race...but you're a determined tough gal so not surprised at all that you "gutted it out" Can very much relate to not wanting to do another marathon until you have the time to train for one....I'm thinking I might be retired before I ever do another one :lol: :lol: Mind...
