I LOVE Guiness and it has a pretty low alcohol content, so I drank it fairly regularly while nursing.

The breaks keep me more conistent and finishing strong and happy. I say stick with it while you're healing, and if anything it'll set you up with some times you can beat the second time around - since it'll lengthen your running career :) <br /><br />Drinking: if you can get your hands on Carribean Guinness it has extra hops in it, supposedly to help it keep in the longer shipping process. I'd imagine it tastes similar to the anniv beer.

The run/walk definitely helps put spring in my step after the break. I will admit I do the same thing in 5 and 10 kms (run/walk), but I also carry my fanny pack on these events so I kind of stick out like sore thumb.<br /><br />What is the speed limit of your local speed trap? I drive by a place that is 30 miles. My cruise control accepts 25 mph or greater so I now just rely on cruise control.

From my observation, many of the runners who insist that walking is cheating end up running at a walking pace, anyway. Or worse, limping.

Hahah...<i>Running over the weekend went very well</i> ...<br /><br />Hahahaha! Better run over it two or three times to make sure it's dead .. especially with Johnny Law right around the corner!<br /><br />When I couldn't run due to tendinitis earlier this year, I took long, fast-paced walks. And you bet I counted that in my yearly mileage.<br /><br />I got a 6 of the 250th anniversay Guinness for Teh 'Bride. She liked it, okay. I didn't have one myself, so I can't venture an opinion. <br /><br />Guinness is just so much better on tap. It's <i>best</i> on tap in Ireland.Glaven Q.

I know the cops sit in one specific spot, and TRY to remember to slow down a bit... fingers crossed for both of us :) Glad the walking breaks are working for you despite the mental part... they work for me, but i'm also not competitive, so i have no shame at all in taking them... i just enjoy being out there, know what i mean? but that's just me.Mel-2nd Chanceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15040126521403230005noreply@blogger.com
