I also have a request. I'm trying to build a searchable website for race medals. http://www.bonusbling.com/ It's just in it's beginning stages but would you mind if I used your Reagan medal? Thanks either way. :) DanaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01519511886069339195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-2414352012318240612008-02-21T10:40:00.000-05:002008-02-21T10:40:00.000-05:00Tim, congratulations on an awesome race!

You set a pretty high bar for yourself but I'm sure you will go on to do even more great races.<BR/><BR/>Oh you mentioned starting behind the slower runners--IMHO that's a good strategy. I've seen way too many races where people 'jackrabbit' out only to start walking a mile or so into it. It can be frustrating to be behind the slowpokes but I use that time to get warmed up, get into my "groove", etc. Even in a 5K, I take the first mile slow then kick it in a bit.<BR/><BR/>Again, awesome race!!!!Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15963095264663210450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-88851455380141380962008-02-18T11:18:00.000-05:002008-02-18T11:18:00.000-05:00Tim, you da man!Good race, you were smokin it.Sorr...Tim, you da man!<BR/><BR/>Good race, you were smokin it.<BR/><BR/>Sorry I missed you, I was under orders to get home ASAP, (In-laws are down from Plymouth Ma.).<BR/><BR/>What a cool race.<BR/><BR/>I like body glide.<BR/><BR/>-BrianBrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04483010827451902792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-25327694979459034762008-02-18T11:15:00.000-05:002008-02-18T11:15:00.000-05:00Congratulations!!

You are THE Traineo icon because you are such an inspiration to many members. <BR/><BR/>IF you ever want to travel to the BIG Chicago Marathon, let me know. (Since you have family in Michigan, they can travel to see you.) I plan to do that one this year, as long as my 1/2 in May goes as expected. I know you were happy just to finish, but I know you are extremely ecstatic that it was sub 2. Congrats again! Great explanation on the pectoral muscles. That is the only thing I hate about long runs and races.<BR/><BR/>Fred-ChicagoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817700181063622887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7001874779832700509.post-30325914088844757022008-02-17T21:07:00.000-05:002008-02-17T21:07:00.000-05:00Mike - yea, I am turning my sites on the full now ...Mike - yea, I am turning my sites on the full now :) I will do more Half's before that time I am sure.<BR/><BR/>Doc - Yea, I am planning on going down to the ING Half.
