Clydesdale Runner

Nice treadmill run - kept it between 8:47-8:35 the entire way. 

Started my weight training today. Just a 3 day a week full body light routine to strengthen me up and for muscle maintanence. Felt good to be hitting them again after a month off.

(3D Grid 6.5M)

Happy New Year!!!

I ran the trail heading out to Washington today - I love this trail. Ran easy and enjoyed the run. Time was 26:06 (8:42avg) miles were 8:43, 8:42, 8:39 - it was pretty cool, but not a big deal. Welcome to 2008!

(Tri 4 - 56.55M)

2M 16:20 (8:05, 8:15) - did a 7:30 1/4 followed by a 9:30 1/4 and 8:00 pace the remaining time. Felt really great pushing like that - "baby step to the door Bob".

weight routine today.

Not much fun this morning - I still hadn't recovered from last evenings run & weights workout - and my body is not used to only 12 hrs time - so I was beat. I started out good, then just got worse until the last 3/4m was a walk and jog sort of thing. Total time for the 3 was 27:50 (9:16avg) - plus this is the week that I actually run 6 days - so a little adjusting is taking place and I've been through it before and know it will get better as my body adjusts.

RunStrong everyone!

Not a bad run at all - except I wanted to run in the rain! It was raining all night and so I went out and the first 1/4m was a nice rain - then it stopped! I mean come on....everytime I want to run in the rain - it stops on me -- that is so not fair! People who hate running in the rain get to all the time - so now I am going to hate running in the rain and hope that the rain gods will bless me because I hate to do it. Time was a 44:14 for an 8:49avg - and that was mainly because I ran past some people I knew and up'd the pace a little, then realized they were staying behind me and I had to keep that pace to save face - 1.5M later we went different ways on the trail and I was done...I walked and jogged 1m for a warmdown. 

I thought I saw Dave Holt - but since I wasn't sure and I was tired, I just kept running - we passed and said "Hi', but that was it. If it was you Dave - sorry I didn't say more - but I was pretty dead by then.

Anyway, RunStrong everyone!
