Definitely a very solid run tonight with some time spent up near and at the 9 mph point. Frankly I just really wanted to get the run done tonight and get on to other things! It certainly took some work tonight to get motivated but after about 10 minutes I settled in and managed to…

Ok – I put my weekend runs up on twitter but didn’t get a chance to blog it at all. Saturday – got out and did my scheduled 9 miles – went pretty well even if it was a bit chilly and icy. It is starting to warm up though so I am looking forward…

Tonight’s run was pretty smooth – no drama, which is always nice. After an 18.2 mile run on Sunday I wasn’t sure how the legs would do but they appear to have recovered very well! Tonight I started with some time at 7 mph before bumping up to 8 mph for most of the run.…

I had 9 miles on the schedule for this morning but I woke up around 4 am feeling pretty awful with a headache and stomach issues – I tossed and turned until probably 7 am before I fell asleep, to be promptly woken before 8 by the kids. So considering I probably fell to sleep…

My legs have been feeling a bit beat up this week and it seems to have to do with the treadmill. A good solid run on uneven terrain over the weekend didn’t have the same result so it does seem to go back to just the treadmill runs. The treadmill has settings for making the…

A decently strong run tonight with a good chunk of it run at a steady 8 mph. I was definitely feeling like it was taking some work to get moving – even at the half hour mark I was feeling the strain even though I was going slower that what I did last night. But…

I finally decided it was time to get serious about moving again! After feeling a bit drained and unfocused after a strong Dopey Challenge in January and low mileage since, I am starting to feeling a bit more energized again. So I am taking that energy and enthusiasm and translating that into my planned running…

Definitely a good run tonight – I wasn’t sure where I would get to but I knew I needed to get a decent length run in. So I strapped on my Hoka Cliftons, put The Hobbit – Battle of 5 Armies on the monitor and got moving. Things felt good right from the start –…

I was fighting a headache for about an hour before I got on the treadmill – contemplating not running but figured I would hit the treadmill hard and it would either cure the headache or make it bad enough that I had to stop. And if I had to stop at least I would have…

I didn’t have a run scheduled tonight but I figured I would put in a few miles anyway to build a bit of a buffer for the week. Work looks like it will be hectic this week so I wanted to make sure I got my miles in early in case I am too torched…
