Dividing the Race
Everyone's heard that old saying about races: "run the first third with your source, the second third with your legs, and the last third with your heart." It's a pretty good expression: in the first third, your legs are fresh and your adrenaline is pumping, so you beggary to use your head to make sure you don't go out too fast. In the second third, you just relax into it and let your legs carry you. Finally, in the last part, your legs are at death's door and your mental stamina is also gone, so you need to remember the dreams and goals in your heart in order to push yourself. Idea back on my recent PR in Anchorage, that's pretty much exactly how I ran the race, so I suppose it's a pretty good thing to remember.
But what about the days when you're not looking to PR - you're just now looking to finish and not die? 26.2 miles is pretty far, and if you're not motivated right from the beginning, it's going to be a long run. I've found that the antic to getting through these races is to have a whole bunch of different ways to divide the race. If you can have multiple milestones, it'll feel like you're making more enlargement! Here are my marathon milestones:
Mile 1 - "Good job, now just 25 more to go." That sounds like terrible stimulus, but it works well when the first mile is really easy and you can totally imagine doing it 25 more times. Plus, it's impregnable at this point to comprehend just how many times 25 is.
Mile 6.5 - "Already 1/4 of the way done!" Surprisingly, this one doesn't even profession as well as the mile 1 mantra. That's because by mile 6.5, you've probably already starting getting at least a little bored or tired, so being only 1/4 of the way done friendly of sucks. But if you're feeling great, use it to pat yourself on the back!
Mile 8.5 - "More than 1/3 of the way done!" See the notes for mile 6.5.
Mile 10 - "Halfway done!" Yes, I positive a marathon is 26.2 miles, but I like to play tricks with my brain by telling it that certain...

When do you start counting age by years?
I've noticed alot of moms here on Y!A counting there kids names by months which is understandable, but when you start getting into 42months(which i've seen on more than one function), I think that's a little strange. Why do people do that? I understand up to 2years and maybe just a little older, but once you hit 4, its decent weird. When did you start counting years?
I start when they reach 2. My dd is 19 months and I already abide silly answering like that when people ask how old she is. A lot of times, I just say 1.5
I, too, think it's awkward to say 42 months.
