    Our pro rated refund resulted in a negative balance, I just paid part of a larger bill with the specific amount of the negative balance to get it back to zero.

    ATP: Southern Europe Vacation Recs?

    Just booked a trip to Berlin (marathon), Munich (Oktoberfest) and Prague, a friend turned us on to the European Destinations website, haven't made the trip yet but we were very impressed with the price and ability to create your own trip. Might be worth checking out.

    Best treadmills for running?

    You ask specifically what treadmills are best and are seeking something sturdy. With those two criteria in mind (and nothing else) I would recommend a Woodway treadmill. I am certain they are very expensive (and very heavy) but they are generally the only treadmill I will run on (except an...

    Official Pit Job Search/Employment Thread

    Thanks for the tip, not familiar with it but about to do some googling. Sorry to hear that lbE, it is always so hard to tell if the grass is really greener elsewhere. I've been in organization 9 years and it is a great place to work but I think I am burning out and need to do something else...

    Official Pit Job Search/Employment Thread

    Applied for a job Monday, got an email today about a phone interview with the internal recruiter and direct position supervisor next Tuesday. Woot! The only complicating factor is I will be on vacation in Playa Del Carmen. Normally I hate taking important calls on cells phones as opposed to...

    The Official OGBoards Running (and Cycling) Thread: (Insert Season Here)

    NICE! That is not how most people run marathons, many go too hard and then hemorrage time the last 10k, great work! If you are already thinking about another one, that is a good sign. Also, never say never about Boston, it took me years but I took an hour off my first marathon time and ended...

    I did end up running and exceeded my own expectations and would agree with the way you put that. I had a few minute PR and really suprised myself. How'd you do?

    The Official OGBoards Running (and Cycling) Thread: (Insert Season Here)

    Congrats! Have to agree with Hawk here, if you just ran 1:46 and you "hadn't really trained" then if you train properly for a full you should absolutely be expecting to run in the 3:45-3:50 range. I always start a marathon with tiered goals that are usually something like this: Don't die or...

    It is concete and very short but rolling, right in the city along a creek, I think they save money on cops by going under/avoiding some traffic crossings. The second half of the race is definitely tougher than the first half. I haven't seen the elevation profile anywhere, I wonder if it is on...

    GPS Running Watch

    I can't speak specifically to the 235, but my wife and I swear by garmin gps watches. She currently has the forerunner 220 and I have the 910. We could get newer models but no need to, we love them. But we don't wear them as our daily watches. They are great for running especially when you...

    Nice SCD! I've run it a couple times (pace group leader last year) and bike/cheer the years I don't run. The second half is pretty rough. Save soemthing for the last 1.5 miles as you come off the greenway and climb back uptown to the finish. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Anyone running the Charlotte Marathon? I've failed to start the last two marathons I signed up for. But thinking about jumping in this one on a whim. I'd love to go run Richmond but as much as I don't really like Charlotte, it is cheap (i.e. no travel) and super easy for me since the start is...

    Trump Will Win the Nomination

    But he just won't do it, that judge is such a trump hater!! If only our legal system had created a way (like a motion) for parties (or their lawyers) to layout their case for bias and ask that a judge recuse himself or be removed. If only!!!!!!
