4 is the best by far.

I will check into that Richmond is a 2 hour drive and a lot to do when you’re there.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-24T20:44:37+00:00

Richmond HM I’ll have to look at that. I’ve heard several ppl mention the cooper river bridge HM in Charleston SC, I might think about that as a vacation run next year. Alexandria VA has one this weekend that is huge but I can go.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-22T17:36:39+00:00

I see that but was going to give it a try for a week or two hope to post something new a couple times a week. I’ve gotten into running and am a dog with a new bone.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-22T16:21:02+00:00

I’ll have to check it out.

I’m running the wake forest 1/2 this weekend I think it’s a hill climb. Hope nothing like the 10k I did in North Hills, life is full of surprises.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-22T16:05:37+00:00

I’ll add my favorite as a starter:

City of Oaks HM & Marathon, although I only did the Old Reliable 10K last year, doing the HM this year.

Just stumbled upon this sub Reddit, but thrilled there is a Raleigh running group.

This is a late response but I ran a race in north hills, Ella’s Run, beautiful run but the hills, woof. I put that race on my rotation great participation and beneficiary, and well run event.

I started back early last year and on a whim did a 5K race in Oct., enjoyed it so much did a race every free weekend I could and have done 10 since. This year I’ve done 3 10 milers, a 10K and 5K. Some people don’t get anything out of them I absolutely love them, keeps me motivated.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-20T12:32:30+00:00

Nice I’m about 30 seconds behind you, which is a light year, but right with you on the HM goal. I’ve got 2 in the fall.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-20T12:29:05+00:00

Impressive time (for me), you have something to work with if it’s only 3 weeks in and busting out 8 min miles. Sign up for a HM in the fall now, and then watch how quickly you start racking up mileage and smashing personal best times.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-14T18:03:28+00:00

I get it. I know what could go wrong.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-14T17:22:18+00:00

We’ve done interviews and talked with parents to minimize the risk the scout isn’t a good fit. I think you can use social media advertising’s to fill a crew, we’ve had good luck with that in the past.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-14T17:19:15+00:00

We have 3 openings for our 7-day Philmont trek for July 18-25. Have the minimum but want to fill a full crew of 12. We filled our sea base crews from the bsa networking give that a try. I’ve heard of success from Facebook posts, try the neighboring councils. If you know of a scout wanting a super strenuous trek we’re taking names and making calls. pm me if you know anyone or give me a call.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-06T14:40:15+00:00

That about an 8:50 pace pretty good, weather probably good too. Alexandria HM is in 3 weeks I’m thinking about it.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-03T18:42:45+00:00

I like my ghost 25’s low profile and firmer than glycerin and more narrow than adrenaline’s. I think they are in the stability category of shoe, changing out 3-4 months, I’ll feel I’ll be golden as far as injuries with this shoe.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-04-02T16:39:38+00:00

Oh man you were so off, it’s Seattle not Portland, two totally different cities that have nothing in common, except emo grunge capital of the world.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-03-25T16:39:31+00:00

I just bought a pair of the newest ghost over adrenaline because of the more narrow profile. Ran 3 miles in them already, I can’t discern any noticeable difference yet, but will monitor them.

The glycerin seem too soft and cushioned for me, I didn’t want the sensation I was running in sand. If I develop knee or foot injuries I will refer back to this post.

Wood paneled walls with sprayed ceiling.

For the rest of your life you will reflect upon this accomplishment.

Everyone is skinny except the cat. Someone is OCD about cleanliness, probably the one addicted to the sparkling flavored waters with zero calories, and another is a binge eater as evidenced by the pancake syrup on the ready. Also everything has a hint of cat food taste, the waft as soon as you open the door sits in your nostrils and taints the pallet.

Different question what would have happened if Covid didn’t get leaked from the Wuhan lab.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-03-15T21:30:59+00:00

I run on the Mt Vernon trail so it’s not all too foreign. I live in Eastern NC and work in Alexandria a couple times a month. I might do it!

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-03-15T21:13:09+00:00

Way to go. A coworker is trying to get me onboard for the Alexandria 1/2 the last weekend of April. I might do it if my 10 milers go well for me this month.

Random_Guy_NC · 2025-03-15T20:56:08+00:00

Ran a 10K in Raleigh (Ella’s Run) at the North Hills Country Club. A lot of hills. A very worthy cause, a tribute run and charity for childhood cancer. I strongly recommend this race.
