Ten Mile Run With Eight Miles At Marathon Pace
No MotionBased stats available at the moment for tonight’s run as I’m having problems with my other computer that I usually hook the Garmin up to. Seems like a recent Windows update has messed with some settings and I’m unable to start it up at the moment. Anyway, on to tonight’s run. I planned on [...]
Lunchtime Run In The Sun
First time since Sunday I’ve ventured outside for a run, and what a nice run it was too! I’d only planned to run 4 or 5 miles, but with temperatures in the mid-70°s and a nice cooling breeze, it was a perfect afternoon for something a little longer. I ended up running 7 miles, and [...]

I surprised myself towards the end of the workout with a couple of low six minute miles (6:07 and 6:09), and was [...]

Spinervals 10k Strength Builder & An Ab Workout

The recovery day left me feeling refreshed and ready to tackle a treadmill workout, and I decided to follow Troy Jacobson’s 10k Strength Builder from the great Runervals series. Here’s a review of the workout from [...]
