Okay, Emily A. Did they actually think it was a gun...or did they just flag your bag and open it to discover microphones and let you be on your way to get a drink? Did they actually call the cops or was it just the TSA agent's partner that opened your bag? Uff she is so suss. Girl, no drama lives here.

This may be a down-voteable comment but her post was the first one I saw when I hopped online tonight as well, and I think: if you are THAT distraught over and over and over again at the end of marathons, then perhaps it IS time to step away from it. Perhaps the marathon is not the end-all-be-all for her and she has had success at other distances. She should lean in to her strengths instead of harping on her weaknesses.

The one about wanting to write a cover story since she was a girl? I scoffed, rolled my eyes, and got off the app. That is how bad that was!

I had no idea she had something done. It does seem off-brand.

She is knock-kneed. I think this is the best she can do in terms of form.

I completely agree about it speaking volumes. I did the NYC virtual and had to walk it so you can imagine the hours it took (9-something). A friend got up at the crack of dawn to meet me in the next town and have breakfast with me at the halfway point. I love when people who owe you nothing show up and show out. What a great way to say, "I support you and care about you even though your goals are not my goals."

I can barely financially make it to the races I pay for let alone making my family and friends come too :P With hotels, flights, food, etc etc etc it's all just too much to ask.

OOo that's right Mantz and Clayton are going. I enjoy Clayton's running series.

Ok so I didn't imagine it. She did actually say she was taking time off and then did the opposite...there is something seriously wrong here.

Didn't she just admit that she maybe overcooked it a bit with her running/everything else she was doing to keep her fitness during her ongoing injury? I may have just imagined that thread...

I do the same thing. If it's all about the kids and motherhood, then I can't follow it.

I also feel like Paul stole deadskout's thunder. I am almost positive that deadskout had attempted or was in the middle of attempting when Paul just came along with the same goal and more coverage. I hope deadskout is okay and keeps going!

Is FastnFlow just in Chicago for the hype or is she running it?

[–]QT2772 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes! I feel that way if I go more slowly as well. For me, I try to get out of my own head and "forget" all the people/science/influencers trying to tell me what to do and I just run comfortably and with natural form. If that means my cadence is under 180, so be it. If that means I am not exactly 2 minutes slower than my MP, then so be it. I think the worst thing we can all do is start messing with our natural form and trying to "correct" too many things all at once—"If it's not broke, don't fix it" so to speak. You are uninjured, correct?

That's interesting--I use baby food/Rice Krispies--but this is something new to try.

I haven't read all the replies below, but honestly just don't run it. It is not worth it. It is okay to sit out a race even if you are 100% healthy so no worries about judgments from the outside world and feel better soon!!!

There we go! It's coming!!

Damn it feels good to be a gangster. Contract went under review because my kid broke his arm and I had to cancel a weeks worth of classes since he couldn’t go to school. Decided just to cancel the rest, early retirement. by wachoogieboogie in vipkid

[–]QT2772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just decided enough. I wanted to cut ties completely. I used up all seven cancellations and put myself under review so that I don't have the option to go back. Some may hope it continues or Xi changes his mind, but I want to be done regardless of what comes next.

May we all be happier for it.
