He's done two 50 miler marathons, he's done two marathons back to back (one on Saturday and one on Sunday) and his ultimate goal is to run a 100 mile marathon. The 100 miler that he wants to run is a 10 mile loop. I can't imagine passing the same thing ten times.

We do have a baby jogger, but the baby can't be in it until she's 6 months old. We tried it the other day for just a walk around the block, but there's nothing to support her head, hence the 6 month old thing. He can't wait to go running with her though.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

This girl I've been talking to evidently likes to run, she has an 8k coming up at the end of the month. We were talking about exercising and whatnot and I mentioned going to the gym five times a week and yadda yadda yadda, and she asked me if I ever considered doing a race. It was a good thing we were talking on line so she couldn't see just how hard she made me laugh.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

and yours is sitting in a junkyard.


well made quite a bit of progress this week on mine. finally finished removing all the sound deadening residue in the trunk.... along with finally getting off all the surplus caulk that some worker thought was funny to random panels on my car to clear his nozzle or something... seriously that stuff pissed me off hard core. a good portion of my trunk floor was covered in puddles of it thicker than my finger.

got the headlights/foglights out. need to jack the car a bit higher and I'm going to repull the radiator... an engine pull doesnt look to be that far away.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

before you yank to much can you check your drivers side axle and see how much play there is in and out and up and down

play with the wheel and all on the car, or just the axle to the tranny?

it might be a while as I am using the under side of the car as storage and the wheels are currently on.

I think the next order of business is me completely replacing the exhaust. its just never sealed up right, I'm sick of it.
