I had 3 pairs of latex gloves on while staining some furniture, and the stain ate right through the thin plastic and left my fingers black. THREE PAIRS!
On another note, I'm back on the training schedule and ran with Mark, Damon, Jason and Ken for 10.6 miles this morning. My hammies were a little tender on the last 3 miles, but nothing serious. The pace did feel ridiculously fast though, even though they told me we were going 7:30 at one point, and had even slowed to 7:45 later on. Eventually, the legs will regain their spring.
Still completely undecided on how i will run the 10km trail race I'm doing on Sunday. I am glad I'm not up for the 30km, but I do feel a little weak for not going for the 30km. Maybe I'll sneak in a 2nd loop, or maybe I'll run longer than 10 miles on Saturday morning to make up for it. Then again, right now, it's all about getting my legs strong again, and not about finishing a 30km trail race.
Happy running!

This is from your friendly coatings chemist. Get nitrile gloves. They are usually purple and I think Home Depot sells them. Have Tim get some out our of workshop for you. I think I have a box in there. They will still dissolve, just not as quickly as latex.
I hope you have good trail race.
Thanks for the advice!!! That's good to know!
(too bad I finished my staining project, and don't need any anymore) :(
I think it will look good. I may take a photo of finished product... we shall see!!
You should feel very weak for doing a 10K when there's a 30K option.
Is your YTD info up do date? We're 1/3 through 2009...
This time Brownie, it's all about getting the legs ready for Stockholm.
yes, my YTD is accurate... what is your YTD?
Why, so you can go run 3:59 there?
