Comments: One second per mile faster and I’ll be on 1/2 marathon PR time. I was hoping to be a bit faster today, but I think the fast 3 miler yesterday put a slight damper on that.That’s OK, overall it was a good run. Mile 9 and 10 were a struggle though. At mile 10 [...]

Comments: Wow! what a great run. I have not run this fast in years! The great thing about it was that I wasn’t dead afterward. I am so psyched! lol Mile 1: 10:01 Mile 2: 10:05 Mile 3: 9:38 Oy! No iPod, no walking, no side pains. I tried to tell myself during the second [...]
Comments: I enjoy going into the basement to ride the bike more and more. I just wish we had a little bit fancier bike. This one is OLD (a free-bee). One day! lol Distance: 6.5 miles Time: 30 minutes Course: Stationary Bike ~~~ Comments: I bought a cheap yoga matt so I have something to [...]
Comments: This run was better than yesterday’s, but only because I had no side sitches. I felt strong. Instead of playing the “run to there game” and then walk, I played the “let’s run to there faster” game. It worked, because this is my fastes 4 miler since I have been writing down my times [...]
Comments: As soon as I turned my Garmin on it told me that it’s batteries were low. Well, I be dang! I had just recharged that silly apparatus. But, I must have had a blond moment and put it on the charger while still on, so when I removed it off the charger it died [...]
Comments: Good run. My nutritional intake over the last week was really crappy and add to that it’s THAT time of the month is was an OK run. I will work on my food intake this week. I only had one bout of side pains, but it faded quickly. Time: 6:00 am Weather: 60′s, humid [...]
Walked a 5k to benefit the American Heart Association with the hubby and a large number of co-workers (and many other people). According to the announcer 15k people registered to walk and over $800k was raised. The walk was fun and it took us just over 52 minutes to complete.
Comments: One daughter off to college, 2 more to go! After spending all day at the university that my oldest step daughter is attending I really didn’t feel like running, so I got on the stationary bike instead and then pushed some weights around. Distance: 6.7 Time: 30 min Course: Stationary Bike ~~~ Comments: Got [...]
Comments: Side pains again, starting around mile one. They did not get better until after mile 3. I wonder what’s up with that? Overall good run though. A bit hot (sunny) for my taste, and I didn’t have anything to drink with me. Time: 10:00am Weather: 75, sunny Clothes: MiT Shirt, NB shorts Shoes: Saucony ProGrid [...]
Comments: Good run, negtative split. Met a new dog on the run. “Buddy”, who is really friendly, but doesn’t listen to his owner very well. I stopped my watch around mile 2.5 to greet him properly. I did have side pains I had to work through starting at mile 1 through mile 3. Time: 7:30PM [...]
