I know Matte & Yank were talking about competing in a 5K.

BUT how about we compete together in the Pittsburgh Marathon Relay?

All we need is a 4th.

"It involves a team of 4 participants each running a leg of varying distances to cover the entire 26.2 mile course. The relay consists of 2 eight mile legs and 2 five mile legs. "

He Whose Name Shall Not Be Spoken... I would be happy if I could complete a 5k let alone even one of those legs... not to mention its all on concrete.

cant we just start with a 5k first? 5k = 3.1 miles

You won't go hiking (not on concrete) and you don't want to run in anything eventful. What gives? You were just bluffing about racing Matte.

As for 5Ks there are plent in March & April, so take your pick. It will help you get prepared for the Relay in May.

10K = 6.2 miles

Which is more than 2 of the legs....

I wasn't in track or x-country and I've ran this thing twice. I ran the 5 mile porting going into Oakland. Which is basically all up hill.

If you guys (Matte & Dave) will train for the 2 5-mile portions and find someone to run the other 8miles. I'll begin training for the other 8. Just don't b1tch that it takes me and 1.5 hours to complete.

Training for 8 miles in 3 months in tough, but I got my iPod. Not to mention the longest I ever ran is probably around 7 miles and it was on the treadmill at the gym 3+ years ago. I guess I'm going to need new sneakers.

Who's with me!!!!!!

cheers

Thanks, Tina.

Yank, you need to take a lesson from your better 2/3s.

I figured I'd be good both ways.

You'd obviously see the compliment.

Davey, would not be able to comprehend and see it as a compliment as well.
