Birds of a Feather

Look what happens when you Invite someone to a Brick Workout


I'm not sure what you're all crying about. I've got two age groups on Brett and I still have time to shower and eat a full meal before he crosses the finish line. John -- you should be an hour ahead of me on this race with all your experience. You're all out of excuses -- you need to get a 10-something time at Lake Placid.

Subject: Race equalizers for age

Just because berg is such a smart ass, I think we need to do some age group equalizers for the actual race.

1 berg has to bring his daughters. Team Hoyt style. I want to see his sorry ass pull those kids up a mountain in a burley

2 Brett has to bring Roscoe but with no extra props. Hell Rosco can probably out swim him anyway.

3 I will give baker a 30 minute head start and an extra 15 minutes for every pint he drinks the day before the race.

Great end of season and congrats on PRs

We all ran the monster dash half marathon today with everyone beating their goal times and three great PRs. Brett slams his 1/2 M time and finishes in top of his age group. Baker man destroys his PR and beats his goal time by 4 minutes. NIM runs a 1:28 1/2M besting his record and finishing 62nd in a race of 4,300 people. Congrats guys. What a great way to conclude the season. We can all take it easy over the next several weeks but training will have to kick back up in early December. Enjoy your success gentlemen.
