Tonight’s run was 5 miles in 38:10 on the treadmill – I gave a bit of a push but not too hard. I have a half marathon race on Sunday (WPS Half) and I don’t want to hurt myself no matter how badly I want to crank the mileage and speed back up. Looked at…

Just a nice steady run today – 2 laps around the neighborhood. It was a little cool outside but not so bad that I couldn’t wear shorts and just a long sleeve shirt. Whoohoo! I didn’t need layers! The run was good and strong – not particularly fast for the most part but I felt…

So I was feeling very good today – pretty much completely done with the junk with my system that dragged me down for about the last 3 weeks. I had a good solid outdoor run on Saturday and took it easy on Sunday for my birthday and didn’t run on Monday. I knew going into…

Lovely sunshine out there this morning even though it was a bit cool. I wasn’t sure how the run would go today but I was feeling healthier and wanted to get outside for a bit. In the end it was a pretty solid run. I did 2 laps around the neighborhood and felt good the…

First off – congrats to all that managed to get into the early entries for the 2016 Disney World Marathon! I envy you all. I have gone a total of 6 times (the last 4 in a row) and would love to go and do my beloved Goofy Challenge again but it isn’t in the…

So yeah – after starting to getting my focus back in the last half of March, things have kind of gone to hell in April so far. I ended up blowing off a 10 miler on the 1st because of family responsibilities but I knew I had a 5 day weekend so I figured I…

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…
