Act your age?? What’s that about??

I defy categories.

I like intervals. 

I would ride with you! On the bike, that is. Skiing is terrifying. 

I'm pretty much a chicken. But I admire your lack of fear. 

crazy. I'm not sure what I am.

With running, I like my pain long and slow. But otherwise, I like driving fast, rollercoasters, and rode down a black diamond the first day I skied. 

I love fast intervals, but I also love a long slow 20 mile run. 

Where's the trail rash pic? They always make pretty epic photos. I have a hybrid bike also and the first time I wrecked it was due to my ex-BFs weimaraner running directly into the side of the front wheel - I was on a gravel road too. The following few crashes were due to not being able to unclip my shoes fast enough.

I'm definitely a mutt. I do like the exhilaration of running fast (when it feels good, haha) but also love those slower, long runs too. I'm not that great at running fast anymore. I'm convinced it's because I live in CO now, and not because I'm getting older.

I would love to come out and ride your trails! Skiing is awesome! Snowboarding is terrifying.  Lol

Black diamonds are my favorite!! The longer a car ride is the more aggressive I drive. Good thing you guys were only in my car for short trips in Boston!

20 miles kill me. Probably a running partner would help.

Couldn't get a good picture of the trail rash.  Spans my whole left side though -- shoulder, shin, ankle and a huge bruise on my hip.

I think you definitely have the speed. Remember how easily you ran Rehoboth last year.  Just keep putting in the miles.

I saw a t-shirt that said, "I don't know how to act my age. I've never been this age before."

ow.. Tegaderm is what you need for that road rash.. heals much faster.. 

love speed but hate skiing.. it's odd, had a friend who climbed Mt Kenya, she loved to climb which terrified me, but would not go on a simple whitewater canoe trip with me, the water terrified her.. 

can't actually run fast anymore, so have to get on a bike to go fast.. ha ! 

I’ve rode my motorcycle at 145 miles per hour and I’ve listened to slow music late at night while just taking in the mood and the lyrics.  I enjoy both, but the bugs hurt a lot worse at 145!

Definitely LSD. Already thinking about those first runs post-marathon, when I can go back to allowing my thoughts to wander off wherever they want to go.

Haha on my second day of skiing my friends said I needed to learn how to snowplow to which I asked why, what’s that? “cos you need to slow down occasionally”😆
