If she can run a few more 5:50s, she will be unstoppable.

 

If she runs a few more 5:50s she's going to blow up.  

Why do you hate Rinny?

I don't but she's not out running 5:50s...that's 2:30 marathon pace and as bad as Rinny is, she can't sustain that.  

 

Are you watching Joyce running?  That girl is cruising!  She looks like she's running a thanksgiving 5k with the slacker family.

Go back and read.  I actually think Rinny is awesome and hope she can do it but I'm not off in dream land here either.  She's not running 5:50s and she isn't in control here.  Can she do it?  Yes.  Will she?  That's going to take a LOT of work and some luck.

Totally agree, great to have a nail biter unfolding.  It's just bittersweet knowing that it's only because of Chrissy being done.

Exactly!

I'm watching the live feed, bouncing back and forth between this thread, the on on ST, and the Central PA Tri Geeks FB group while enjoying my third (or is is 4th?) Sam Adams.  This is like Super Bowl to me.

You're losing the race as I'm on my 6th Fat Tire  I'm a little bummed that the St thread is so slow, or I'm on the wrong ST thread?

Well the day is finally here. I don't believe a single workout has gone by in these past 9 years where the idea of being at the start line of the Ironman Hawaii didn't creep into my head.
