Treadmill, 3:45am.  All at 8:34 pace, alternated incline between 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%.  I lost the battle with nature again in the last mile and had to abort.  I fought valiantly but I think I was literally 1 more step from a disaster; I had to jump off to the side of the TM while it was still running.  Decided it wasn't worth it to go back and finish the last 0.8.  No more nasty energy drinks for these early morning go's.

It's already Sunday there?

From SlowJoe on Sun, Aug 29, 2010 at 01:56:47 from 214.13.130.104

We're 8 hours ahead of central time, 10 ahead of pacific.

Now I can't get automatic first top of the mileage board anymore! Boooooo

Nice workout at 3:45am!

From SlowJoe on Sun, Aug 29, 2010 at 06:31:26 from 214.13.130.104

Normally I get a few hours of glory every week until your Sunday run.

Nice run! Fortunately for me my coffee kicks in less than 5 minutes after drinking it so I can take care of business before the run even begins!

From Kelli on Sun, Aug 29, 2010 at 11:23:10 from 71.219.102.155

This post cracks me up! Oh so funny (not to you, I know, but we have all been there!)

3:45??? That is for real nuts.

From Mike on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 03:32:14 from 155.85.58.253

Do they make running diapers? If not, then I'm going to patent some.

From SlowJoe on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 05:59:14 from 214.13.130.104

Poop is always funny Kelli. Unfortunately I'm not a coffee drinker April - I definitely need a better pregame ritual. Or one of Mike's patented running diapers.

From ChrisM on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 06:04:46 from 86.180.136.134

I think most hot drinks (tea/fruit infusions) will help encourage bowel movements early in the morning!

From Kelli on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 09:25:08 from 71.219.102.155

Oh NASTY!!! No running diapers, that would just get plain uncomfortable!

From Burt on Mon, May 23, 2016 at 20:17:50 from 24.56.20.91

I miss everyone on here.

From SlowJoe on Mon, May 23, 2016 at 20:27:12 from 107.77.66.115

Me too Burt. I especially miss Burt. He just disappeared one day.

From Dan on Tue, May 24, 2016 at 13:24:52 from 65.26.157.212

Taking a nugget from here. Poop IS always funny.

I miss Kelli too, she always shared recipes with me.

I don't miss Hawaiian Bread pre-runs.

I don't miss Allie's old mayor. Guy was a jerk.
