This guy is 72, runs 24 miles a week and is consistent like death and taxes. I'm thinking it's time for some Cannabis start up to sponsor you! Props!

This was 4 years ago. I'm fascinated. Still there?

@Chill Dude You're my hero. I'm 51 and botched my BQ qualifiers (3:30) two years running.

World's fastest Stoner, Chris Barnicle didn't make anybody proud at Olympic Trials: 3:45 marathon. http://www.flotrack.org/article/39718-world-s-fastest-stoner-chris-barnicle-talks-after-trials-dfl *sigh*

I've been experimenting with this for the last month or so ... 15 mg edibles before a swim or long run. In both cases it feels easier to "get in the zone" where I can really focus on small things like the minutae of the swim stroke or running stride. I'm less clear on the actual impact on...

Let's see. This year's update from Reprojected. This season's goals include Chelanman 1/2 Iron distance Triathlon (72 miles) and a strong effort for a BQ run at the Portland Marathon (I need a 3:30 finish, about 5.5 minutes better than last year). Last year I turned fifty and finished IM...

describing 17.5 miles, 5,300 ft in 94 degree weather is surely a solid effort by any broad definition. Sorry that didn't work out. Sounds like you made the right call though. Glad the only injury is a little wounded pride. Next year. Maybe? Separately, I just missed by BQ time in Portland...

+1! How did this go?

Thanks for the kind remarks. If you're even talking about 7000 feet of gain over 26.2 miles at 95 degrees you'll do just fine in the 140.6 event. The most represented age group in Whistler BC was 40-44. Not quite the young man's game one might assume. Rather the course rewards patience and...

I'm 50, graduate degree, 4 kids, home mortgage. Professional job in software development. 4 years ago I ran I my first 5K. About the same time, I resumed up a cannabis habit for the first time since high school. Two weeks ago, I finished Ironman Canada. I think there's relationship there.

I turned 50 in this past May. Two weeks ago, I finished Iron Man Canada. Over the six month training program, MFLB was a constant companion (3-6 d/week). I did some of the bike workouts vaked. I did not see any elevated heart rates others have mentioned. Rather, the medication made it...

Definitely just a cold. All better. Oh, and running a marathon while high? I'll try a shorter run that way and report back.

Hmm.... Brilliant minds think alike. I made my first batch of cannabutter a few days ago. About an ounce of scraps in a pound of butter. Two teaspoons for breakfast was modest affect ... maybe 4/10.

For this thread, I stopped lurking and signed up. I'm 48 recently completed my second marathon and am signed up for a half iron man in a few months. I vape a few times a week. While certainly less detrimental than smoking, I'm unclear on MJ's impact on my performance. My sense is that it...
