+1 on the distance. kept it short - still humid as hell

managed 15k but man am i ever slowing down these days - 1:20. guess that's what happens when there are no goals other than putting one foot in front of the other and enjoying things. take away the wind and it would have been perfect conditions.

nice when you can come in over a minute under your goal time. that was a great second half - negative split!! .

the 18% reduction would be based on landed cost, not retail prices. so if a shoe's cost is only $25 then you would see a reduction of $4.50. All the other markups and costs would not be impacted by the lowering of and/or elimination of tariffs. i think people see 18% reduction and automatically assu...

i wave to almost all runners. usually get a response back. some will even offer up a good morning. and some will even help push me up the hills when i can't go any further.

easy 15k done and i actually felt a chill when running into the wind. huge change from 3 days ago

If you need tights under shorts to prevent chaffing, you're wearing the wrong kind of shorts! you might be correct. some longer shorts have a liner that goes down and shields everything. some shorts just have a mesh liner that chafes right up under the area between the boys and the thigh. for those...

I always wondered why guys wore shorts over their tights. I guess the guy who I see in tights at every race wants to show off his junk then sounds like our friend doonst :D :shock: Hey Richard, eyes up! Seriously, I'm just glad that we have started a conversation about this important topic. For too...

but tights under shorts are a necessity to prevent the boys/inner thighs from chafing, especially on long runs

shorter list is probably who isn't cheating....

i hear you. +1 on the distance and the fact that it's over.

saturday slog is too right. finding it really challenging to hit old tempo pace these days - must be getting old. 8 k in the books

the man is just amazing

Fantastic result!! Well done.

will try to get out for 10k after a week off healing up. we'll see how it goes. looks like a nice day here

Makes me want to avoid the treadmill at all costs.

where is that gym and how do i get there??

yup, windy as he11. planned 21K but only got in 18. a slow run @ 5:30/km but thoroughly enjoyable.

eggs being consumed, back from a very,very leisurely 10k. kind of chilly out this morning.

you wrote that you thought you gave all you had - so that's all you can ask of yourself. we all take what the day gives us on race day. great race and a fantastic time. well done!!

no run today, but i did get a workout in - mixed and lugged 260lbs of semi wet concrete from garage to the basement to make a shower pan.

will get a run in tomorrow - maybe even in shorts!!!

If Canadian Retailers are correct in that this tariff is solely the reason for their competitive disadvantage, and not the ridiculous markups, then manufacturers should be able to open the market up. This is why I support Mizuno. well now they have to put their money where there mouth is. retailers...

No import duty on sports equipment. So hockey skates for instance is 18% import duty. Now let's see if retailers pass on the savings. Not holding my breath. retailers can only pass on the duty savings if the manufacturer passes on those savings to the retailer. the manufacturer pays the duty when g...

my AG awards have been entirely dependent on the quality of the field on race day. i've run PB's and not placed.

if i run the eggnog this year you'll have to explain what that long first word in your thread title means. Thanks!! And well done on your race.
