Incline Club V15 LR #11 — It’s cold out there

Good Evening Incline Club!

Ok, so it is officially cold out there.

Let me be the first to admit that it is times like this that I’m really glad that I spent that $25 (yes, $25) to get a treadmill a few years ago. But the cold weather has not stopped some of us: http://www.kktv.com/home/headlines/Athletes_Brave_Sub_Zero_Temperatures_For_A_Morning_Run_115038334.html

And for those of you who are wondering, no amount of cold will ever cause the Incline Club to cancel a run! Thankfully it will be a touch warmer this Sunday.

Race Reports:
***********************************************
This week, Trudy reports from a run that was so windy, the finish line clocks got blown over. Down south, Mike reports from “the most difficult marathon in Texas” (if there ever were such a thing with so much oxygen down there).

Winter Series #2 — El Pomar Youth Sports Complex — 01/22/2011

Trudy DeCoronado reports:
Distance: 8 miles
Goal: finish
Results: finished 1:18:04
Website: http://pprrun.org

General Summary:
It was a beautiful day but a little windy. Pretty flat course but just getting back into running from after a injury. I thought it would be good for me however, at mile 7 my car accident injuries kicked in and worsened at 7.5 miles but b/c I’m so damn stubborn I finished limping into the finish line..

Things Done Right:
Didn’t go in w/any expected “special” time other than to just finish.

Things Done Wrong:
Kept running when I should have walked when injuries flared up....

Waco Marathon — Waco, Texas — 1/30/2011

Michael Sandlin reports:
Distance: 26.2 miles
Goal: Finish
Results: 3:12:43

General Summary:
The Waco marathon is a very well organized run. The volunteers at the aid stations are wonderful and helpful. This is a low key race with only about 150 in the marathon (there is also a half). It is the most difficult marathon in Texas. The first 14 miles are relatively flat and there are actually some good hills from 14 to 28 miles, before becoming flat for the last two miles. The temperature was about 62 degrees at the start and around 72 degrees at the finish.

Things Done Right:
Even pace during the first half and finished strong for the last couple of miles.

Things Done Wrong:
Between the 15 and 20 mile mark my legs felt really tired; however, I started feeling a little better toward the finish. I saw a “J” pipe around mile 20 and it made me think of LLR and all the great runs we have enjoyed running/walking/crawling up in December and January (ha).
