I try to mimic as much as I can but in my case, a heat stroker in Arizona, i will do a long run with a camelback with 60-90 ounces (oh okay fine 2-3 liters!) of water which I would never do in a race. I can run with or without radios or ipods. To me its more what can I listen too, evil conservative talk radio is good for me. Ipod if its just a so so outing.Comm'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01351781836311483147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127314891388746672005-09-21T11:01:00.000-04:002005-09-21T11:01:00.000-04:00i thot i was the only one who thot about camber. ...i thot i was the only one who thot about camber. it makes a difference in my knees so i feel it.Oldmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06291832786518815306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127312355614643112005-09-21T10:19:00.000-04:002005-09-21T10:19:00.000-04:00Fortunately I'm not a music addict!

I like it, but it's not something my training or racing depends on. :-) Plus we have enough creepy people in my area that I want to be able to hear it if the bad guys are behind me (or the bikes going 25 mph).<BR/><BR/>I tend to have some knee problems on steep cambers, and in road races I end up switching sides of the road frequently if I can. When I have a road race that's just on one side of the road, I start to get in a little trouble if it's very long. I try to practice on each slant to keep my knees accustomed to it, but they like flat the best.Nancy Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402516081283603553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127308160894840232005-09-21T09:09:00.000-04:002005-09-21T09:09:00.000-04:00Two notes:1.

I sure as hell couldn't run 10 miles alone without my MP3 player, unless I was participating in a race and totally focused on the job at hand. I have a hard time keeping that "race" focus on my training runs...just too many miles.<BR/><BR/>2. <B>Running on roads with camber</B>. I try to do this often, but sometimes it is a nice break to hop up on a sidewalk or run in the grass along side the road for a while. Just to give the knees and ankles a break. I actually know someone who has had to rehab a pretty serious injury from this very thing...:)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17613685986312715512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127256672308594052005-09-20T18:51:00.000-04:002005-09-20T18:51:00.000-04:00Oh, about MCM (Mike, I looked for your email and c...Oh, about MCM (Mike, I looked for your email and couldn't find it quickly) I'm going to be doing the middle 10 miles with Holly from http://triandbehappy.blogspot.com/Nancy Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402516081283603553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127245995474294612005-09-20T15:53:00.000-04:002005-09-20T15:53:00.000-04:00I hope so!

I also wrote this because I see a LOT of people doing things *MUCH* differently on race day than they did in training, and having a lot of (fairly predictable) problems as a result.Nancy Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402516081283603553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127245853892291792005-09-20T15:50:00.000-04:002005-09-20T15:50:00.000-04:00You sound very prepared!! :-)You sound very prepared!! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127241722000717642005-09-20T14:42:00.000-04:002005-09-20T14:42:00.000-04:00I like the comparison list.

I think 1-2 minutes off your marathon time per pound of body weight is about right for me, even though I'd like MORE! :-)Nancy Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402516081283603553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11232148.post-1127231391666975922005-09-20T11:49:00.000-04:002005-09-20T11:49:00.000-04:00Nice job, Nancy.I also keep thinking about how muc...Nice job, Nancy.<BR/><BR/>I also keep thinking about how much faster I'll be when I lose more weight.Recovering Alumnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08118927101030203407noreply@blogger.com
