Can you say, "S#@K

        Yes, my run today really stunk! I was weak, hungry, dizzy, tired and lethargic. I probably should of just walked home!
       Oh well...I managed to make it home alive! I know there will be days like this so I shall not take it to heart. I know that the 8 miles yesterday probably impacted this run.
  Still, I had a great week with logging almost 30 miles! Peace!

Long Run-


   Well I consider 8 miles a long run right now. I actually have run two 8 milers this week! I'm sitting in 25+ miles already this week! Tomorrow I'd like to run a short distance but make it a kind of tempo run. My feet seem to be holding up....my will power in regards to eating is weak! I need to cut out the sugar! Oh how I love sugar! Peace!

Cool down


     We have been blessed to receive a respite from the heat. Rain and clouds with somewhat cooler temps make for delightful running.
   I logged 4.4 ez recovery miles today. Tomorrow is a rest day. I really need to be careful because I feel so good I might tend to over train and run smack into an injury.
   So, rest tomorrow then I hope to run an 8 miler Friday. Hope all is well with you! Peace!

Piling it on!

  
   So yesterday I did an 8 miler on the treadmill....too much lightning out there, today I logged a nice recovery 5 miler. So that's 13 miles in 2 days! I'm slowly getting back!
   I am feeling great. Some soreness occasionally in the feet and Achilles but nothing debilitating.
 Hope all is well with you! Peace!

Massive week!


        I logged 28.6 miles this week! That is fantastic for this old injury riddled runner! The feet feel great. I have to do several supplementary exercises in order to stay healthy and they are working!
   I hope to maintain or increase slightly next week. I do know I will add one mile to my "long run" on Monday. I will do 8- hope all is well with you! Peace!

Early Bird-


    So I got out the door by 7:30am! Now that's early for this old bird! I usually run around 1pm but the heat and humidity is oppressive and dangerous right now.
   I managed 7.1 miles and finished drenched!
 I am on track for a good week! Hope all is well with you!

Swelt to svelt!

  
    Nothing like the hot Summer temps to burn off fat! The body has to work so hard to stay cool that the calories burn like dry wood on a bonfire!
   I will continue to try to run in the earlier part of the day. I hope to at least log 25+ miles this week and increase very slowly! So far so good! 4.8 total today! Peace!
