Saturday Steady Run
Despite taking a rare day off from running yesterday, I could still feel Thursday’s 20 miler in my legs, so today was quite a slog in the wind and not as easy a run as I’d hoped for. I did manage to duck under an average 7 minute mile pace, but to be honest it [...]
Seven In The Sun
Where is this crazy February weather coming from? High 60′s tonight and expected temperatures in the mid-70′s for the next couple of days! Not that I’m complaining of course… Tonight’s run was definitely going to be an easy mid-distance run with no heroics and no foolish race against the clock like yesterday. Saturday’s race and [...]
East Beach Norfolk Half Marathon
I can’t believe we’re already into the month of February. Is it just me who’s thinking “What happened to January?” I also can’t believe the Norfolk Half Marathon is my fifth race in the first 32 days of 2008! If I wind the clock back 12 months, I was probably in the best shape of [...]
Tidewater Striders Distance Series 25k
Today’s 25k was my fourth race this month. Earlier in the week I was definitely looking forward to another race at Fort Story in Virginia Beach and seeing how close I could get to my predicted finish time courtesy of the McMillan Running Calculator. Based on my 20k time earlier in January (1:19:53), the calculator [...]
Easy Wednesday 4 Miler
Not much to report tonight I’m afraid. After yesterday’s tough treadmill workout, I just decided on an easy 4 mile recovery run. I set off around 4:55pm with the last sunshine of the afternoon just visible above the tree line, and the weather much better than it has been on previous days (around 46°F) The [...]
Monday Afternoon 5 Miler
Managed to get out and back from a five miler before darkness set in this afternoon. It was still very cold (high 20′s) but at least the wind wasn’t too strong tonight. My goal was to run for five miles total with a couple of faster miles thrown in for good measure. The first mile [...]
