I agree. Running sub-3 on only 45-50 miles/week just demonstrates how much faster I could be if I sucked it up and trained like a man.

I mean, if I trained to my potential, I could be A LOT faster than you, instead of just a little faster.

Oh well.

Either way, your wife is thinking about what the ceiling would look like painted a different color.

I think deep down you know, looking at my 5K and 10K PRs, who didn't train up to his potential, and what would happen if someone did.

Hank's wife mainly likes it doggie, but she told me she is going to hit the cheap bastard up for some new carpetting.

Even when I'm clearly kidding, it is patently obvious that it bothers the shit out of you that my marathon PR is faster than yours. That is sad, b/c neither of us are fast enough to brag.

Given our off-board, albeit limited, correspondence, I know that you know that this is not true, which makes it patently obvious to me, that your continued and relentless attempts to lord it over me in an effourt to break down my psyche is a strategy to make me give a shit, which is inspired by the fact you must give a shit. Which is sad.

Now if we were talking about a real endurance race, I might give a shit, but you would have to step it up a notch or two to have that convo.

I am trying to lord it over you (b/c it's fun), but I don't give a shit.

It would be much more fun if my PR were sub 2:40. Then I would never let up.

Is that a challenge?

To whom? My next goal is sub 2:55. I won't be at 2:40...ever.*

*although if I had the time I think I could get there. But that would require some serious dedication.

You have low expectations of yourself. This saddens me. I thought you were better than that.

If 2:55 is your pinnacle make sure and let me know where your next try is going to be so I can come and put the smack down once and for all.

Did you read my post? 2:55 is my next goal, not my ultimate goal.

Considering that most people train much harder than I did to go sub-3, I think I know how fast I can be.

This is actually a great incentive; which marathon are you running next? This could be fun.

You can count the number of times I ran more than 50 miles in a week on one hand, so I am down with you. We roll like that.

Nothing scheduled. If Vegas had not moved dates I would propose Vegas. I am awol for most of January, so Houston is out (no offence RT), although if you wanted to have our own personal marathon sometime near the last weekend of the same......
