Re: Hey Runners!
I've got a pretty good trail about a quarter-mile from my house, runs through the town I live in, but it's mostly tree-lined and straight. Pretty good to get a few miles in here or there.

If I am running at the gym I try to time it so that I am ending just at the end of a game so I stay on a bit longer or I start right when a show starts and end an hour later.
My knees hate running...but I'll bust out the inlines for distance. Give me a fully charged ipod and I could skate to France. Wouldn't want to because it's France...but I could do it
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Re: Hey Runners!
Yeah...I'm familiar with the term "fruit boots"
At least I don't look as dumb as a cyclist in spandex. When it's cold I bust out the Pavel Datsyuk Ak Bars Kazan jersey. Nothing says badass like a Russian league Datsyuk jersey.

Re: Hey Runners!
Let us leave the cyclist's out of this conversation please. Down 45 lbs since Thanksgiving and a ways to go yet until I can again wear spandex.Globetrotter wrote:Ive never understood the necessity for cyclists to wear the cycling gear?Flipper wrote:Yeah...I'm familiar with the term "fruit boots"At least I don't look as dumb as a cyclist in spandex.

Ever sat on a road bike seat? Ever worn the cycling shorts (which have padding in all the necessary area)?
Yeah, I was skeptical too... but after cycling for a year and a half... the shorts were one of the best investments I ever made.

I have never been happier to see the glAss Bowl. Not too keen on going back anytime soon, but after 10+ miles, it was welcome.

Thanks, Freak! It was good to see hammb and his band of fellow Falcons at the finish line, along with my brother and a couple BG grads we talked to while recovering.Falconfreak90 wrote:Nice job bro...TG1996 wrote:I have never been happier to see the glAss Bowl.
