Gotta hydrate, regardless of the temp. 

Lots of strange marathon happenings recently!

I will never get those 20 seconds of my life back, thanks..

I was thinking the cold might have had something to do with it.

They were cases of dehydration, and possibly the cold might have fooled these people into not drinking enough water... or something.

temp was in the 40s - that's actually reasonable for runing 26.
tragic.

Maybe something like this gave Rosie Ruiz the idea for her stunt

I've already lost one nail and will probably lose my big nail on my right foot here in the near future.  Argh.

I'm trying to get my ass back in running shape. Any of the midwestern runners up for a possible half marathon in the spring? I feel like I really need to set my next goal to get my training more consistent again.

If it was a painless and cheap procedure I would have a couple toenails removed.

I won't be out there, but I ran the Oshkosh (WI) 1/2 marathon in April of '07--it was a great little local race. Of course, there's probably one closer by you, too.

Welcome back.

Depending on where you are thinking, I'd possibly be down. I'm not real fast, but I'll do it with ya!

My wife has mentioned doing the local (St. Louis) half in April. I'm thinking that's what I'll shoot for probably, although I wouldn't mind checking out a race a few weeks before or after that one. I'll see if I can do a little researching for April/May and see what I come up with.

Sweet, yeah I'd be down to give STL a shot. I'm open to others as well, so let me know what you come up with. I could use a good goal to work towards as well. I'm running a 7 mile off road costume race in Des Moines, IA in November. Looks like crazy fun!

[ghost_2000]

What's your costume?!

[aphineday]

What's your costume?!

Good question. We have a team, so we were thinking something that works together. Someone thought of getting hospital gowns, etc. and doing the whole "escaped inpatient" idea. I'll post once we have an original or "good" idea

Just knocked out 4 miles this AM. Perfect weather here for running--50s w/ a light breeze, all the fall colors. Wonderful.
