It looks like Steelblue's 23:20 may just hold up. Two weeks to go and nobody is near him.

Don't tell runner coug, but I'm slowly sneaking up on him and am now just 6 seconds out of 2nd place.:cool:

I'm sorry to say, I'm not going to put up much of a fight. But in my defense, I would like to point out the following:

I am going to beat my time this weekend. Or I will suffer a stroke trying.

Well, I took one more stab at it. Steelblue, you are the man. I did improve 17 seconds over the last one, though.

I've been wondering... if I were to give El Jefe a generous donation, would he let me change my name again? I'd like something that more accurately describes me, something along the lines of "Slow Wuss".

well my physician won't let me run now and my times were on Garmins not Nike, so it sucks to be me.

Four to six weeks if I don't need surgery. I get to sit on the stationary recumbent bike like a fat ass. No racing, no nothing. No swimming, no running but walking is allowed. Geeze, I can't even get my heart rate up.

On the stationary after reaching almost maximum capacity of the bike, my heart rate was only 150. Barely enough to get a good sweat. Worse yet, how much will I lose?

Arch, did you ever say if it was a shoulder dislocation or a separation? There is a difference and the rehab/healing times are much different.

Class 2 bordering on Class 3. I don't know what that means. It hurts even now.

Well, I think my 23:20 will be my best time for a little while. I was going to go for a faster one on Saturday, but my legs are hurting so bad I just did a slow 6 miles instead. Lately after a run I feel like I've jumped off of a 3 story building. I think I need to take a week off.
