Good Month
So far I'm having a great running month. I'm averaging well over 3 miles a day. This week I'm over 25 miles with some solid speed work today. I did 8 minutes worth of pickups, too.
One thing I notice as I run....the ditches along my route are filled with trash. It's a shame to see how mankind litters. The majority of the trash is related to alcohol. Beer cans and whiskey bottles. Coming in second place is fast food wrappings. I detest littering! Hope you are well! Peace!

Seasons are good
Spring is a season of hope for me. A long Winter of running and dodging sickness, and even being sick for a week, with consistent running, yes, I have been averaging 25 miles a week now! Spring offers better temps and foot races galore!
Today I ran a 6 miler! Hope you are well! Peace!

Closing in...
I managed to run every day except on Sundays in February. I have been able to increase to a 25 mile a week base and now it's time to "feed" in a little speed work. I seriously doubt I could be ready for a competitive HM so maybe I'll try the 5K coming up...it's for a good cause.
Race prices are ridiculous anymore! Well, Winter is still trying to keep a grip on us here, but it will lose! Come on Spring! Hope you are well! Peace!

Crazy!
Help! The weather is killing us! 65 one minute 32 the next! Wind, rain, freezing rain! AARGG!
I have still managed to fit in some runs in between the crazy weather. I continue add one minute each day and I'm up to 39 minutes. Feelin' pretty good, doin' my planks and trying to cut out junk calories! Hope you are well! Peace!

Summer temp!
Wow! Just last week we were below zero now the frogs are chirping in the ponds! It's nearly 80 degrees! I'm up to 35 minutes running. This is my third week of doing planks. Man they will really work you!! So I'm shooting for an April 7th race! Must keep going!!!
Hope you are well! Peace!

Ice, ice baby!!
If you know me you know I love Summertime!! This Winter we are in is brutal this year!
Ice storms, below zero temps, non runner friendly weather in my opinion.
When I was a young buck I'd always, no matter what, run outside! The wind? Ha! I will defeat you! Not so now! I like the calm environ of my garage on the treadmill. (almost worn out)
So I am currently in week three of rebuild with a race in mind. April the 7th, HM, a good cause.
BTW, I got on a kick....started doing planks. Push up style and forearm style. This is my third week and I am seeing strength increasing already.
I'm still a young buck at heart! Hope you are well! peace!
