1:30 is like a nice slow jog for him. What an honor it would be to run in his pace group!

I should see if Mr. GT wants to go run with Meb

[lb2006]

I emailed my H - his goal is to break 1:30 and he's at 1:33/1:34 right now

So tempting!

So cool!! He seems like such a great guy.

I still have to grab sub 1:40 (I'm looking at you, Kiawah), but I would totally go out too fast, to hang with Meb for a bit. DH could hang. That would be so much fun!

Man, I just love Meb.

Yeah, I'd totally crash and burn to hang out with Meb for a while. I bet he gets quite a few of those. So cool! I heard he was giving high fives to some of us regular folk finishers at Boston. I'm so jealous!

Me too. Btw a 1:40 half is what I would plan on (pending training etc) for kiawah. Do the courses run together at first? Maybe we can help pace each other

It looks like they do, until just past 11. That would be fun!

Remind me, are you an "OMG BEER IS THE BEST THING EVER AT MILE 22" runner? I'll totally run back to the house & intercept you on the course.

Look at it this way, they can meet us at the finish line, cold drinks mixed and ready!

Heck, they'll be 2-3 deep by the time I finish and I'm only running the half.

Well the good news is that by mid-afternoon we'll all be done, many drinks in, and calling ourselves by our forum names.

Good idea! If you have a plan in place already, let me know! I'm still building my base back from Napa. Yes, I was a slug for almost 5 weeks after my marathon.
