Their rationale is that since they deal with so many people with all manner of germs and vira on a
daily basis, theír immunological responses, like everything else about them, have become superior to
those of the rest of us.

Sitting in your easy chair querulously invigilating other folks prose is rude, arrogant and
unwanted. Sooo, yes the extra o's are for emphasis, stuff you querulous evaluations in that dark
place once your head pulls out.

Have you returned just to be a nuisance? If so, don't bother this only makes you a smaller
inconsequential popinjay.

It's always fun to watch. We had three from my area run under three hours.

Nah they never pass out, that implies the loss of the ability to talk. :) Good to talk although only
a few minutes. After you left it was father confessor for those thay could not resist going out too
fast and dying every so slowly.

That sounds exactly like the kind of attitude a dr would have too, superior. What jerks they are...

The scary thing is she was one of them, she was 1:30 something at the half and put quite a few 6:30
splits in through the first 20 or so, some even faster. I suffered in the half, I thought I should
be able to hold a 7:30 pace and I couldn't, the last 7 wasn't any fun at all. Trying to protect the
ego is certainly painful to the body.

M - 6 mi. @ 8:30 trail run T - DNR -- rest day W - 8 mi. @ 8:20 Gallup/Hospital route. Felt flat
from cold virus. Really hurt up hills. T - 7 mi. @ 7:40 Gallup park + Arb hill (0.6 mi.). Feel
better. F - DNR -- rest day S - 9 mi. @ 8:00 Gallup park + Arb hill (from home). Felt great. S - DNR
-- rest day Total: 30 mi.

Slight shin splints, but otherwise mileage increase is going well. Will hold another week at 30.

Goals: --Lose weight (156#, down from 158#). --Build up base mileage to 40/week to start interval
work this winter. --Train through x-country race Nov. 1: will be happy with sub-21:00 and
thrilled with sub-20:00. Haven't raced this distance in nearly 30 yr., and I don't remember
liking it much.;-)

Sun - Seaside Festival 10K, West Yarmouth, MA, 50:06 Mon - DNR Tue - 9.3 miles, 1:18:40 Wed - 4
miles, 32:57 Thu - 2.4 miles - 24:35 Fri - DNR Sat - 6 miles, 50:55

Weekly Mileage - 27.9

The Seaside Festival 10K was one of the smallest races I've ever done - about sixty runners -
and one of the wettest, at least for the first two miles. After that the race pretty much
stopped for the rest of the race.

Real simple. You can't eat for a couple of hours before running, right? So just fill the empty space
in your gut with the beer.

There's a nice path around Winona Lake, though you can also go for Center Lake (a smaller, and a
bit more crowded). If you like the cornfields, you can run down old 30 towards Atwood (about 7
miles one way) or Etna Green (more like ..? 12). For a long point to point, run on in to Bourbon.

I ran the Fleet 10k on Sunday, which is organized by my club - Fleet & Crookham AC. It is quite an
undulating course, at least a minute slower than a flat course. My previous 10k PB was 35:09 set on
the dead flat Silverstone course in May, so I was very pleased to break that on a much tougher
course - though I am definitely in much better shape now than in May, so I guessed I could get close
to it at least. I'd say my 35:02 is worth sub 34 on a flat course.

I missed most of the distance markers, but I am certain I achieved negative splits, something I
haven't done for a while.

Results - http://www.hants.org.uk/fleetandcrookhamac/Fleet10k-2003-results.pdf

Monday: pm) 5.65 miles - easy/medium

Tuesday: pm) 5.85 miles in total. 10 x ~600m w/90sec rec - hard

Wednesday: pm) 7.6 miles, hilly, medium

Thursday: pm) 8 miles, inc. 3 x 5min w/3 min jog rec - hard

Friday: pm) 6.7 miles, hillyish - easy/medium

Saturday: Rest

Sunday: am) Fleet 10k, 35:02, 3rd overall

Total run: 41 miles

Thanks for the suggestions Bob, but I forgot to mention that I was talking about Warsaw, Poland and
judging by the place names in you post, this is a Warsaw, somewhere in USA?

:) Yes, the one I was referring to is in Indiana. It's
the county seat for Kosciousko County, the county being home to 100 lakes. I grew up in the area and
still visit periodically. I've done the Atwood - Etna Green and Atwood - Warsaw round trips.

Hope the trip to your Warsaw went well.

Thanks! I had a great time, including a near-death experience involving a bowling alley, polish
computer scientists, a few frenchmen and lots of beer and even more vodka (with raspberry liqueur
and ground pepper)

After 7 years total abstinence, I'm surprised to be here to tell the tale ;-)

I didn't manage to run anywhere either. Needless to say.

It's difficult with a hangover. ;)
