Brickyard Run - The Calm Before the Storm

Tray, Rose, and Mary, who ran the Hartford full, enjoyed a brisk run this morning. It was great having Mary join us; she says she will definitely come back. Brent was a "no show" and has yet to explain his absence. It was very quiet on the trail; hardly any people out. By the time I finished my 15 miles, my car was the only one in the parking lot.

Good thing we beat the snow. It seemed to get here a little earlier than originally thought. I'm now seeing predictions of up to 12 in.! How is this even October? Hopefully, we'll get some warmer temps. in the next couple of weeks so that the trail is passable again.

Lee and Linda, be careful coming home tomorrow.

Happy shoveling/snow-blowing!

Kingdom Challenge 1/2 in Vermont

 

Rose called us and reports that she, Mary and Tray ran Brickyard this morning. Missed you! Glad Tray got her 15 in. I ran a 1:47 in a hilly half marathon this morning in Vermont and placed 3rd. It was 1 deep but I did manage to walk away with a random drawing prize of a small fir tree. Rose sent a picture of the snow you guys are experiencing. Is it "1 deep" yet?! Coming home tomorrow afternoon. Driving might get interesting.

Tray - Beth and I will be doing the manchester road race. Its a fun race.

Kim just backed out now - says she needs to start earlier. 

Looks like I won't see anybody until the race for Eddie at the end of Nov.  Just got a flyer in the mail for the Malibu race on Thanksgiving Day.  Not sure what we are doing yet but it starts at an un-Godly hour of the morning.  Anyone racing on Thanksgiving?

8 AM. Brickyard. Be there!

Here's what I know ...

I'm running a half in Vermont tomorrow so won't be there.

Tray's doing 12-15 in preparation for Harrisburg which is on the 13th. Brent'll be doing 12. He's running the 5 miler in Kent the next day. I think Tray's friend Kim will be joining them. She's doing the Philadelphia marathon which is on the 20th.

Rose is doing up to 10. Mary Franco will be joining us. She ran the Hartford full.

Lynda Jaeger has also indicated she is interested in joining us. She ran the Hartford half.

Barb is mending. Dave is helping people out who suffered losses due to Hurricane Katrina. He's running a little but is still babying his knee / leg.

Lea will return to Brickyard on the 12th and will not be there tomorrow. She, Brent, Rose and a guy from the Vernon group I run w/ on Wednesdays are gearing up for the Ghost Run next Saturday. Tray, wisely, will forego, focusing on doing well 8 days later.

The weather looks cold, snowy. Dress warm.

PS

November 7th was Eddie's birthday. Let's celebrate Eddie by gathering about his bench and then running the trail. The official day for the Eddie Gorecki Brickyard Boogie is Sunday, November 27th. This is 3 days after Turkey Day and doesn't seem to conflict with anybody's schedule. This will be a word-of-mouth, small, low key, self-timed 4 or 8 mile run on the trail starting @ 9 AM. Talk it up tomorrow. Who can make muffins, hot chocolate? Promote the day on the HTC Facebook page and here. Talk to your running friends. I have bibs from Hogsback. Photos, results will be posted here.

I got an email from Marty Schaivone inviting me to come down to the 21st annual Great Pumpkin Classic 4 Mile in Trumbull. Brent was also invited by Marty at the recent USATF CT meeting. Linda drove Brent, me, Larry Regan and Bob Tumiski down this morning. Brent has been coaching me of late and he, Bob and I warmed up on the track at the High School. We ran about a mile and did a few strides as well. It paid off. Larry went sub-7, Will Graustein couldn't be caught, Hawley was unbelievable, Brent and I kinda did what we did at Apple Harvest (but switched roles). The course was long by .15 miles so my pace was actually 7:04.


This might be the last Pumpkin Race. Marty will be retiring after 35 years of teaching at Trumbull High School. Sherry Duff, his partner, is taking a new job in Virginia. So this is the beginning of the end of an era. Marty is a great race director. He seems to know just about everybody who places in his races and gives a nice story about them when they get their awards. There were some pretty touching moments today when he was doing what he always does - a brilliant job. Thanks Marty.

Fwd: Lunenberg 5k Report Before the Official Results

-------- Original Message --------

Subject:	Lunenberg 5k Report Before the Official Results
Date:	Sun, 23 Oct 2011 17:59:28 -0400
From:	Charles Bradley <charles0300@gmail.com>
To:	Lee <bradley_lee_r@sbcglobal.net>

Hey Lee,

Had a good race.  The results are not up yet but I placed 2nd in the 65-69 category.  Not sure how many men were in my group yet
Wasn't many, but I felt good about my time - which was 23:15 (official).  The pace @ mile 1 was 7:07.  My overall pace was 7:30.

There was one guy (there's always one) who was old and breathing down my neck from the half-way point all the way to the end.  We had a major dual back and forth for much of the rest of the race.  He blew me away at the end but not by a whole lot.  I asked him his age after it was over and he said 71 (or 72).  He was really fast and (fortunately) was in an age group of his own!  The guy who did beat me really was way ahead!!  I never say him.

Felt strong the whole way.  There were some hills but it was pretty flat for the most part.  I felt good after it was over, but had it been longer, I would have likely died at mile 4.

There were very roughly 300 runners.  I came in 68th overall.  The winning time was 15 minutes and change!

I rode my bike 11.5 miles to the race which began at 12:30 PM
Got home at about 3:45 PM

Here are some pics

1:  me before race taken by a mom whos adopted son (show later) placed 1st in his 10-15 age group



2:  Fall trees on this 10/13/11 day.  View is looking away from the start and finish line.



3: Registration 



4: This was also a bike race for young kids.  These are the early finishers (below). This is the 10th annual race
and is in memory of a boy named Myles who got killed speeding in his car.  The parents raised enough money
from this race (getting huge sponsor support) to actually pay for the new high school football field and the track around it)
In the bike race (and on the hardware shown later) it is stressed NOT to go fast and to enjoy a no-timed event with your friends.
The local police are pacers on THEIR bikes and they talk to the kids about the course, etc, before the gun goes off.
Lots of parent also ride with their kids.  Very fun and NO speeding!  Only in the 5k fun run later.



5:  Actually THESE are the first bikers coming in below.  I think they went 3.1 miles also.



6:  Judy Kangas (in blue) receives her 1st place award for 60-65.  She and I chatted a lot before
the race.  Her husband Jim and I met first.  He is more a biker than a runner although he ran several marathons
around 1981 to 1985.  He and his wife and I hung out for most of the post race activities.  Jim took this picture of his wife with my camera but my batteries did bot have enough energy for him to take my picture as I received my 2nd place coffee mug.
We all exchanged emails addresses.  Jim pulled a calf in this race, but it was not a bad pull.  Judy will be doing a 5-miler on Sunday, Nov. 20th in Fitchburg, MA - The Slattery's 31st Annual Turkey Trot.  I may do it too.  Haven't decided yet.  This MAY be a Central Mass Striders event.



7:  Lots of food afterward



8:  My "trophy" for placing 2nd.  Yippee.



9:  Rear view of hardware -



Have a good weekend!

Lea, Beth and Mari nailed it. 1st marathon. Nicely done! Andie, not pictured, ran 1:38:35 in the half. PR. Wow! Poppel got a 3:30:23 in the full, 5 minutes short of a Boston Qualifier (but pretty impressive). Rose and Lee were quite close to their pace times. Weather was a 10. Next stop for some of us: Turkey Trot in Wallingford. Next next stop for some of us: Ghost Run 1/2. I know Tray wanted to do better. There are plenty of opportunities in front of her and all of us. Well done, Brickyarders!

Hartford - Break 4:00 or Bust!

First of all, congratulations to everyone who ran Hartford - half and full marathons! A special congrats to Lea, Mari, and Beth, who should be beeming with pride after their first successful completion of 26.2.

I figured I would write about my disappointment as a catharsis to maybe help move past it. Regarding the 4:00 or Bust plan, I obviously chose BUST! I don't know why but I had a difficult race early on. Perhaps I just went out too fast but I felt like I hit the wall several miles before the actual wall. I struggled and even considered registering a DNF at times. I really wanted that medal, however. :) Mentally and physically I did not have it today. The weather was great, I thought my training went great but something was off.

Mari and Beth, I'm so glad I ran into you at the end of the race. I was sitting down in pain looking for anyone I knew and then I spotted Beth's compression socks. :) Lee, Linda, Rose, and Lea, I'm really sorry I missed you guys. I guess we should have had a meeting place - DUH! I went for a massage and walked around a little but there were just too many people and my legs could barely make it any further.

I hope everyone recuperates quickly.

Mari,

My nerves are crazy!  It's all normal.

I believe 7 a.m. by the carousel is still the plan.

Re: [Brickyarders] Rose and my bios are up!

Very nice guys!  It's about time.  I like the bios - very helpful.  In fact, I'm going to email another pace leader (3:55) b/c the 4 hour guy has dumb strategies. :-D

When I click on the links, nothing comes up.  I'm also having trouble posting comments on the blog.  They keep disappearing when I hit either Preview or Post.  What's going on?

Re: [Brickyarders] New Start Time

Hope everyone had a great weekend. Great pics from the Southington run. 
This coming Sat I will not be able to run at Brickyard. I have a wedding in Newport that afternoon which means I have to get my run in earlier in the am.  Unfortunately that means that I will not see you all until the big day!  :(   will you be meeting in a certain area before the race?

I've updated the Brickyarders' Best link to reflect the fact that Mari and Beth have run Hogsback and Brent, Tray and Lee have have run the 5 Mile in Southington. This link is very incomplete so if you have any additions, corrections etc. let us know.

Ben and Andrew Vroeginday Blazingly Fast At Apple Harvest Kids Race!

Ben shows Lee and his Mom how it's done!

Took me almost the entire two loops to catch up to Andrew!

Tray PRs in the 5 Mile

Lee had Brent in sight for 3 of the 5 miles

Brent in the lead!

Rose places 1st the 5K

Apple Harvest Race 2011

Well, looks like I have to eat a big ole piece of humble pie! Not only did Brent and Lee slaughter me in time for today's 5 mile race, they ran an obscene amount of mileage this past week. Oh well, what can I say. I did beat my best race time on this course by 46 seconds. My sub-40 will have to wait until next year.

I'll let Lee post the pics and details for him, Rose, and Brent. Congrats to all the age-place winners - that would be everyone except me! :(

I had a great time - thanks guys for coming out to the race. Thanks Lee for running with the boys.

Tray and Barry's Party!

Tray and Barry and Sophie and Mo and Zoe and Andrew and Benjamin really know how to host a party! Thanks so much!

Linda, Lee, Mary, Brent, Dave, Barbara, Lea and Rose had a great time!

See you tomorrow. Brent's already making excuses about how our semi-long run this morning will add about 15 seconds per mile to our expected paces. The Guinness, cheesecake, shrimp, beef, kale, chips, salads, brownies, wine, dip and rice have got to be worth at least another 15 seconds. I've recently mentioned that one of my best races was run the day after I ate a lot of pizza and drank a lot of beer. I'm thinking 7:29.

"It doesn't get any better than this!"
