YEAH!! I can't wait to hear about your spring plans! And I could certainly trade a CMM for a Chicago, esp if we could crash with you guys or if anyone you know would put us up!!

Don't worry about the 5K, I did a 5K two weeks after a marathon and was like a massive slug!! Crazy!!

Happy Halloween!

HI Barb, me again. I am wondering if I can ask you some TNT questions. I want to run a half marathon in 2007 and in picking one I want to know how long to expect to train. Is there an email address I can email you at?

Thanks,

Lisa

Awesome job running the 5K so fast after your marathon! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I sure appreciate the encouragement. I went back and read about your PF Changs marathon and what you wrote was so inspirational. I was seriously in tears at the part where your mom showed up at the end. Thanks for sharing it!! I hope your toes feels better!

Good luck with your advanced marathon training! I think it will be QUITE a while before I see a training log that will resemble that!

I got mine extracted and burned off. Toenails are seriously overrated if you ask me.

But alas, nobody did. I think I'll run off now.

Can't believe you're already racing when i'm just thinking about going out there for a run. I picked up the Pfitz book as well. I think i'm going with it for my next marathon

2006-10-30T18:46:00.000-06:00

Wow - you rock Barb! I can't imagine running a race for a while after that marathon! I'm sad I didn't get to meet you more - maybe next year ;) Please email me your mailing address!

Thanks for coming by my blog. I've seen you around quite a bit, and I recognize your new pic from Trisaratop's blog. She had some cool pics of you at Chicago! Wow! Doing a 5K this soon after a marathon?!?! You are a gluten for punishment!! LOL. But great race though :-)

Great job on the run. I was scared shitless by the Pfitz plan when I first read it. But I have to admit it was not that bad.

My humble advice is to build up your mileage and long runs so you are where you need to be when it starts. And just do the best you can. I cut it back a bit and it still paid huge dividends for me.

Honestly though I think the long runs and the LT runs give the most benefit. Run the 3rd 20 miler it is by far the best one.

Good luch Barb! I am thinking you are getting ready to take it to the next level!

2006-10-30T09:48:00.000-06:00

We must be running the same circuit. I did the Trick or Treat trot, Chicago and the Bucktown 5K. The first race after a marathon is always a challenge and that 5K was no exception. Congrats on finishing!

I was looking to do a spring marathon too. (maybe Tampa Bay in Feb). Keep us posted as to your plans.

2006-10-30T08:30:00.000-06:00

Yeah, I'm in the process of losing my left big toe toenail. It went balck and blue last March, and has been slowly but surely working its way off for the past months. I think it might take a full year.

Nice job on the run and you guys motivate me!

uggh hope that toe nail relents. I am waiting for mine to fall off but it seems determined to hang around and gross me out.

2006-10-29T19:53:00.000-06:00

That's awesome that you were out running another race already! And you did great!

I started reading Pfitz's book this past week too. I've had it on my bookshelf for months b/c of the intimidation factor, but I'm totally ready for it now. You'll have to keep me posted on your training! I think I'm going to go with the 24/55 plan, but I need to still decide which marathon will be my next one.

Congrats on the great race this weekend, way to get back out there running!

2006-10-29T18:27:00.000-06:00

Nice going with the 5k even with your toe issues. EVERYONE is intimated by the Pfitz plan when they first look at it so you aren't alone.

2006-10-29T18:06:00.000-06:00

Great job on the 5K, Barb. I'm sure it wasn't easy with Mr. Toe rearin' his ugly head. Take things slow and easy, and you'll get things under conrol.

Shucks! I wish you guys were running the Flying Pig with me next May. I'd love to see you again.

Oh well, until Chicago again next year, then. ;)
