Wake up weight 166- This is were I need ridicule and scorn and razzing to motivate me to do better. I cracked yesteday and ate more than I should. I'm starting to think I won't be able to hit 160 and maintain my upper body muscle at the same time. Oh well. I'll do my best with the 12 days I have left.

LUNCH- I had time for about a 20 minute workout so I did upper body weights focusing mainly on chest and lats with a little bit of biceps and shoulders thrown in.

PM- Hoping for time to do a longer run, maybe 8 to 10 miles easy.

10 easy miles. That was the best run I've had since returning to running! It was an amazing night, low 70's, full moon, with a very slight breeze. I felt quick and light on my feet, but never felt like I was pushing hard.

You better get your act together.

zero miles? No wonder you're fat! Get up earlier and run instead of playing on the scale! You did ask for ridicule right? :)

From Rhett on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 19:29:50 from 216.67.221.157

Well done RattleTrap. Burt, that was weak. You gotta bring it harder than that. I need abuse.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 19:35:26 from 72.102.212.12

Yeah, I expected more from Burt too, but he's probably still tired from his relay. How are you doing Burt? I hope you put more effort than that into your race report :)

From Burt on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 19:42:47 from 206.19.214.144

I was impressed by Trap. He really let you have it. I'm actually not that tired from the relay. I should have run harder ;)

Whats wrong with you fat boy? Stop stuffing the crud down your pie hole. You keep it up and the folks at the registration table at Boston are going to be double checking your entry for fraud. Wake up and get yourself back on track. You have seriously disappointed me and a lot of other folks around here!

From Mack on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 21:10:18 from 71.111.190.57

Sorry Rhett but you did ask for it. I've got 3 teenagers so unfortunately that stuff comes all too easy for me. Not that I ever really say it... But I do think it from time to time.

From rAtTLeTrAp on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 21:37:35 from 76.121.76.165

Nice work Mack! We'll get him back on track with or without Burt's help.

From DonGardinero on Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 23:34:54 from 152.216.7.5

I'm really disappointed, Rhett, or should I say Tubbs?. You were my motivation. How could you let me down?

How was that? LOL. These guys are cracking me up.

You can do eet!!!

From Rhett on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 00:40:44 from 74.32.216.228

I love it! RattleTraps motivation helped get me out for a nice 10 miler tonight. Mack and Dale brought it strong as well. Keep it coming!

From Burt on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 00:47:46 from 68.225.214.248

You pitiful pathetic worthless piece of garbage. Why don't you lay off the ding dongs and get your lazy butt out the door?!

Too harsh? I was just remembering back to my old high school coach.

From Rhett on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 12:01:30 from 216.67.221.157

Brut, no definitely not too harsh. These are awesome. I think I may have to print them up and save them. I'm rereading them this morning and laughing so hard my staff is looking at me like I'm a crazy man. Mack "Stop stuffing the crud down your pie hole." is epic. I'm suprised more people didn't jump on and let me have it. It was there chance to lay into me without feeling bad about it.

sounds like a great run -- !
