Did the first run with my new running partner. We kept it short–just one lap on the 1½ mile loop. Frodo hasn’t really eaten since he arrived here yesterday, so I didn’t want to totally wear him out. ‘Course I coulda just dropped him off at home and done another loop, but apparently I lack […]
Got a side cramp within the first mile and it pretty much stuck with me for the whole run. Bummer. Seemed like a tough run this morning, but my time was okay: 29.5 min. That’s a little over 9 minute miles. I’m sure I can do better, but I just gotta keep on it.
Just did one lap on the 1½ mile loop this morning. Woke up early enough to run farther, but kinda got sucked into a book in the comfy chair. I ran the loop kinda fast (for me) and did it in just over 12 minutes. That’s an 8 minute mile–wish I could sustain that pace […]
Did the 3.2 mile loop this morning. Felt pretty good, though I forgot to time it. My left heel/ankle was kinda stiff for the first half of the run, but loosened up later. Nice weather this morning. Almost didn’t wear my running jacket (old TNF fleece with holes in the elbows from skateboarding accidents).
Did two laps on the 1½ mile loop again. I’m pretty stoked that I’m learning how to run right past my house, even though I really want to stop. Small things make me happy, I guess. I got a bit of a cramp down the last stretch, but ran through it.
I’ve been keeping time on […]
Today I did the 1½ mile loop two times. That’s tough for me because I find it really, really difficult to run past my own house. I think it has something to do with stopping the pain.
Looks like my weight is up a little bit this morning. Probably that big dinner I at […]
I usually run between 5am and 6am, but today I ran at about 10am (it’s Saturday). Made the mistake of eating breakfast and then running. Nothing like the feeling of a stomachful of corn flakes sloshing around while you run. Ugh.
I planned to do a little bit longer route today–I wanted to do four miles, […]
This morning’s run felt pretty good, most of the way. About 3/4 of the way through I started getting a side cramp. I ran through it, though, and it went away around the last 1/8 mile.
It was good to do a little bit longer run. I’d like to do more, but I think I’ll need […]
This morning’s run was a short one–just a mile and a half, since I had a meeting at 6am I had to go to. I plotted out the loop a while ago, thinking that I could just do multiples if I wanted to extend it. What I didn’t realize was that it’s apparently impossible […]
