    If sub 8 minute miles are pretty doable, consider me not Miles Davis.

      I might be able to break 10 minutes

        No clue on the swimming.
        If you're coming from basically nothing, 5k in 25 minutes would be pretty challenging, unless you're in your early 20s or so. Breaking 30 minutes would be reasonable.

          Oh yeah...I was assuming some level of training since Tiger said he was hitting the gym. If you just go out there cold, you might be walking across the finish line.

              This is more Earth-like.

                  If I ran out the front door right this second for a 5k, I might be back in like 45 minutes. Maybe.

                        took me 26 mins to swim the half of mile. So I think my overall goal when I actually do this thing is to do it in 2 hours 15 mins

                          Going to Denver, technically Red Rocks, for a wedding this weekend. Will hit up Orangetheory with the 26 y/o, which is her latest workout obsession.
                          From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.

                          For more than 20 years I have endeavored-indeed, I have struggled-along with a majority of this Court, to develop procedural & substantive rules that would lend more than the mere appearance of fairness to the death penalty endeavor.


                          I feel morally and intellectually obligated simply to concede that the death penalty experiment has failed.

                          The path the Court has chosen lessens us all. I dissent.

                            tell her to skip that and just run up and down the bleachers at red rocks

                              I think we'll just be in Red Rocks for the wedding on Saturday. High noon. Staying primarily in Golden.

                              She goes through these phases. Works out like a beast, starves herself, full tilt for a month. Then one week the scale doesn't move, and it's -- I'm never working out again!

                                Running the bleachers at Red Rocks would be a way better and free workout. Although maybe not if the smoke is still bad.

                                We've worked on sound isolation for a ton of OTF locations, probably at least 20 by now. Tell her to go to the one at Belmar and yell a lot and pound on the wall and piss off the PITA doctor next door. F that guy.

                                I think the tours at the Coors brewery are still paused for now, but Cannonball Creek brewery is a good hangout in Golden. Plenty of good stuff in the downtown Golden area too.
