AP! Awesome. I have been looking forward to your RR on this one. The ultras interest me, not YET to get me to do one…but interesting, nonetheless. You did a great job – 5:0x is a super time for sure!!! Funny how you talk about “slowing down the least…” sounds like IM. Congrats and glad you are recovering well.

I am in the basement with Zach and our neighbor (just turned 4) and can tell you crashing cars is very popular here as well. And there’s no being gentle. The question thing is crazy – one question just leads to another and no answer is ever satisfactory. I’m getting to the point where I am half tempted to just make things up.

You are amazing! I am proud of myself these days if I get 4 miles in. And even when I get back to running without carrying along a baby in my belly, I just can’t wrap my head around training for 50ks and 40 milers. Good luck with the 26!

This is fantastic! I laughed out loud when I saw Remy’s artwork. I’ve always been impressed with your son and now I have more reasons to be inspired.

I’m excited for your 2012. And I think it will be interesting to see how you like focusing on the long stuff, especially since I’ll be the opposite and focusing on the short stuff.

Alicia – You have my empathy. I’m not sure if you followed my blog in 2011 or not, but I was basically forced off of the bike for eight months. That left only running for me.
I delved into it headlong and I had a lot of fun. Sure, I missed the bike. I eventually even put in several weeks of solid riding in order to race a couple of smaller du’s.
Like you, I focused on an old and soft marathon PR after training and racing in some ultra events. Though I still ride, I don’t do it regularly or with the immense effort required to ride fast. That is OK. I am exploring something new – and I am exploring myself.
Best wishes in your exploration! ST
