SeaBee Posted September 15, 2017 Share I believe that there is a collection at the CT Marathon Expo for old finishers medal that people no longer want, for the childrens hospital for kids that have come through chemo treatment etc..what a wonderful idea!At some other local races during the year, they made my wife's day when they had collection points for old running shoes. I had to defend like crazy, but some old trusties fell victim for the greater cause. candz1 and Hacc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Stuart Posted September 16, 2017 Share Anybody else run the Brooklyn half this morning? That turned out to be a lot tougher than I anticipated. Lots of pleasant flats but also a long grinding uphill that sapped the legs in the last few km of each lap. Was pretty warm out there this morning as well. Didn't quite get the time I was aiming for but I'll chalk up some half marathon experience. Pieter-za 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaper Posted September 17, 2017 Share Well that was a bit of a sufferfest. Not done any running due to a 5 week ITB in the lead up to CPT marathon. First 15km went well, no real pain, then started feeling ITB with a numbness, 28km , leg felt dead and was actually able to pick up pace and run freely! Around 36kms ITB started to complain a lot and could feel the lack of training and fitness in my legs... The last 5kms was a slog and felt like more of a shuffle than a run... Finished in 4:10hrs. Generally happy considering the lack of any long distance runs in the lead up to the race. After some much needed physio in the tent at the finish, my ITB is feeling rather better than I thought it would Stretch, Khronis, ScottCM and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
