I don't want to rest.... but they say it's important. 0 miles. 

This is me at the end of my last 5k race.  My wife must be proud that she married this racing Frankenstein.  I was told that extra nostril flare really helps in the final stretch.

i feel your pain. the rest days quite often throw me off worse than even a hard workout.

...but necessary.

Rest days are important. Doesn't the nostril flare cause too much wind resistance?

I need to teach you how to post pictures on your blog. I'll send you a PM.

From Tracy on Wed, May 19, 2010 at 11:02:27 from 209.175.177.37

Burt, can you send me a PM on how to do it, too? I'm too lazy and stupid to figure it out on my own :)

Looking forward to seeing the extra nostril flare. Pictures of people running are usually funny!

From Burt on Wed, May 19, 2010 at 12:30:28 from 206.19.214.144

You got it, Tracy.

From Burt on Wed, May 19, 2010 at 14:34:35 from 206.19.214.144

Oh yeah. That's some serious flare. It's like Frankenstein and a gorilla got married.

From Derunzo on Wed, May 19, 2010 at 14:42:02 from 65.220.66.195

Ha ha ha! Are you calling my wife a gorilla? Ha ha! Good stuff Burt you are funny!

From Tracy on Wed, May 19, 2010 at 14:49:17 from 209.175.177.37

Nice. What a lot of effort captured digitally.

I can see this made into a scene in a movie. You've got that game face on and the camera zooms in on the pain, the agony, the effort.

Then the camera pans out as the guy behind you passes you. Turns out you're running very slowly.

I couldn't even get the ankle bracelet off at the end of this 5k. They were like "Can we help you with your ankle bracelet?" I was like "no I can get it." 30 seconds later and no bracelet.... I was like "Actually can you get it off?" I was beat up from the feet up!
