  1. RUN
    alright 5 mi eaglemont to skagit high... 5.15 mi 00:45 08:41 pace

    Slower pace than recent runs, feeling sore. Reflux. 14 on the schedule for tomorrow. <<gulp>> Assuming that I complete it... a new record!

      2nd run led me within a mile of the bridge, but decided to leave it for a daytime visit instead.

    alright 5 mile loop Digby to MVHS 5.24 mi 00:44 08:23 pace

    Took it kind of easy (and the pace remained solid, unbelievably) and the reflux was minimal. Supposed to do a 3+3 tomorrow... can't decide if I should do the first 3 before work or after. Gu... read more

    Hill Training night... a whopping +800 feet of gain! The pace undoubtedly suffered but it was inevitable. Return of reflux. Also, tons of sirens and police cars speeding by at mach5 speeds... s... read more

      Sounds like a good run, Eric. Hope the dog found its way home. Nice to get lost in your thoughts and end up with such a nice pace.

    Comfortable run and a good pace, particularly considering that I had to stop for four texts and one phone call.

    Another brutal mid-day weekend run. Intended to be a 13 mile run, had to call it quits after only six awful miles. Culprit may be the sun... or that I'm running during (skipped) lunch. Prom... read more

      Did you run at a different time than normal? I notice if for some reason I run around 2PM it's much harder for me. My runs in the morning or evening go much better. Maybe it was just an off day...we all have them.

      I generally run at night, but this is the 3rd Saturday with a daytime run -- but this one was earlier than the others. Plus, I had a pretty good run the evening before... it's probably just a combination of all those factors causing havoc. Just one of the facts of running that we all get to deal with I suppose.
