freebird 0 #1 September 25, 2003 I did it whoo!!!! hooo!!!!! 12 miles in 2:30. only 14.2 more to go. Now remember after the marathon Im going back to my old place. Spaceland in Houston, to jump on the same day in which I finish the marathon. A marathon and a jump in one day, to start the one jump of hopefully more to come under my new Triathlon 150 No pink. Red , blue and yellow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freebird 0 #3 September 25, 2003 Well I had to get up at 3:45 am go to a park run half the miles in the dark only hopeing the fellow in front of me knew what he was doing. At 9 miles I thought it was only 6 miles. It was actually 9 mlies wow!!! 3 more to go. Steep hills every .5 a mile The group helps pull you through, misery loves company. Im actually excited about the 15 miler and happy about the little 10 miler we will do this Sat.at 6:05. 10 miles what an easy day. ( compared to 12 anyway) Im only doing 11:00 min.miles ,but let me tell you it is FAST! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumper03 0 #4 September 25, 2003 Congrats man! I was training for a marathon the end of october. Got up to 15 miles and then the knees started screaming "NOOO, NOOO, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NOOOOO" Had to back off the training and screwed the schedule. I'm hoping to make the Tucson marathon in Jan. Keep us posted! JumpScars remind us that the past is real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyangel2 2 #8 September 25, 2003 Is there a reason why you are yelling? Congrats on the race. My husband did ulta marathons, running 100 mile. One year he skydived into the start of a marathon, then did the run.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mujie96 0 #13 September 26, 2003 That could hurt. Don't wear underwear, you'll chafe and when you have to put legstraps on you may pass out from opening shock pain... Trust me. I learned this the hard way. Just keep swimming...just keep swimming.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
