The full reality of the SEC Gauntlet was realized precisely by Texas this year when they lost to FL. It’s what we’ve talked about for years and all the other conferences call BS - that the weekly grind of the SEC is just exceptionally difficult.

It was Texas’ first conference game of the season.
So Notre Dame qualifies with the win over Army? Seems legit.

Rent a mini cooper. Parking is tight and the roads are narrow. You’ll want it to beach hop and get to restaurants.

You can prepay online for terminal garage parking at a discount. The earlier you book the cheaper it costs. Usually can get it for $12-15/day.

Of course they will, they have one competitor.

Five nights in Bali for mud pits, elephant jungle rides, beach excursion, and street food

I wouldn’t recommend any of these activities in Bali. Travel to Thailand if you want to do these things.

You don’t have that choice. You are taxed once they have vested.
London GFA entry is only for UK residents. To qualify for London as a non resident, men need a sub 2:40. It’s tough.

Even going this route you’ll need to find a way to join a UK club team.
Rest is more important the week before a race. Try to get more sleep.
You don’t have any aerobic fitness.

Slow down and run more. Increase your miles <10% each week to prevent injury.

Dallas Turner will see to that.

Will he do better than the 1 tackle he had in the first game?
Because the doctors were likely getting kickback payments.
Ohio St beat Wisconsin 59-0 in the Big 10 title game. Cardale Jones was the MVP.

Will FSU beat Louisville in similar fashion?

re: Ankle Fusion surgery--any input??

Ankle replacements have greatly improved over the last decade and at your age you could be a good candidate.

I would highly recommend finding a foot and ankle fellowship trained Ortho surgeon in your area who does fusions AND replacements. A good majority of these specialists will have experience with both procedures and can help you decide what would work best in your case.

But I agree.. I hate being the favorite in this game.. it usually doesn’t go our way

How many times in the last 13 years has Texas been favored in this game? Twice?

re: Best tempo shoe?

Posted by benson32 on 5/30/23 at 7:10 pm to
Speed 2 was a great tempo shoe. Speed 3 is a nice shoe but more of an everyday trainer that still has some good versatility. I wouldn’t want to wear them for a 5/10k race.

You can find some great deals on Vaporfly 2’s.
That charter flight will cost you a fortune. SBH airport closes at sunset so as great as St Barth is it wouldn’t be worth it as a day trip.
