ALASKA HOOSIER

it's actually an amazing run. Here is a funny story, i was running it one year and at about mile 16 i was running near this attractive female so i decided to do the right thing and partner up for the remaining 10. We chatted, pushed each other along and stopped for a beer at mile 22 (there is a booth that if you say the magic word, they give you a PBR~ very exhilerating). Anyhow, we cross the finish line together and i head over to my friends and family. My buddy has this dumbfounded look on his face and he says, dude..... i can't believe you were talking to her! I said, what are you talking about and he says... How do you know Melinda Gates? I was like, who??? lol Damn, i should have put on the charm and become rich!!

i like to run. it's weird and all my friends give me **** about being able to do it when they are all broke. Have run multiple marathon, halfs, 10k, 5ks. Don't like to do the short ones anymore. I will probably do a couple more halfs and marathons though. if i have the time, i want to do the "Equinox" marathon up here in Alaska again this year. If you haven't heard about it and are interested in doing one of North America's hardest, check it out! I think i have completed it 3 times and did a leg as part of a team. It takes place in September around the Autumnal equinox, thus the name. It is friggin' cold and you can expect nasty wet snow while the elevation changes kick your butt. Some people just hike since it's mostly on trails. If anyone wants to run it with me... hit me up

I'm in the interior of Alaska. Just north of Fairbanks even though we say we are from Fairbanks. i love Seward but there are too many tourists in the summer for me. The Kenai penninsula is rather extraordinary. I too have been on the Harding icefield trail down there. the pucker factor is always 10 for bears along that trail though. they aren't just numerous, they are big and hungry! Actually, that's about anywhere down there in the summer. I was fishing down there once time and a big ol' hairy friend decided to walk right up behind me to see what dinner he could take. I didn't see him until i smelled him next to me. Needless to say there was no way i could get my pistol out in time and i got seriously lucky humans weren't the special that day.

I just found this thread. I love to travel and have been to all the 50 states and i think 5 of the continents. Lived in various places around the world including Africa for 2 years Panama for 1 and numerous deployments to Kuwait, Afghanistan, Iraq traveling to many of the outlying countries around them. Just recently returned from S. Korea.

i believe we should all work 8 days a week. suck it slackers!

hell yes! Welcome aboard big fella

you mean Cupps

Fail! try again

@BottomLine you have officially made my "suck it" list. join the ranks of @Josh, @HoosierAloha ,@Naturalhoosier, @Stuhoo, @Class of '66 Old Fart, @Hovadipo and many, many others. Watch your back next year. I'm coming for ya!

so, a question for those that have seen him play and know his abilities. Can he come in and start and be a significant contributor or take over the game for IU? More importantly, can he friggin' rebound?

Next year is my mantra. suck it everyone!

got my nap in too!

Us- 103 Them- 72 Let's go Hoosiers! I was trying to like the Canes but then read their forums and now they can all suck it!

is this kid remarkable? I haven't seen him play and have watched his mix tapes but can't decide how good he really is. Can someone give me a comparison.

Us- 103 Them- 72 No one like flashers!

This mascot reminds me of Purdoo doo Pete. Don't like him. Destroy the flashes

Us- 103 Them- 72

(lack of) rebounding is driving me nuts!

and you gotta remember Cupps has been in his ear.
