Wasn't sure if it was going to be a tempo run or yoga tonight until the last minute. Then, I broke my indecision and went with Jon's suggestion. Got out and didn't feel like tempo ... read more

good Elliptical after dinner 5.25 mi 00:37 07:05 pace
My wife was making dinner when I got home. Surprisingly eating before my workout didn't bother me. The elliptical was a nice break from the impact. The next two days will be a short tempo a... read more

good Easy/Recovery in heat of day 4.32 mi 00:40 09:20 pace
Did my easy/recovery miles in the heat of the day. If the marathon weather is hotter than expected I'll be glad for this one.

@Ameet - We have a saying here "If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes". So, it changes day to day, but on this run it was in the low 80s (27-28 C). Humidity is fairly low most of the time, rarely going over 70%.

Smart to get ready for some heat on race day. Though I rarely do that, I'm going to need to over the next couple of months.

My favorite technical spot on Chuck's Loop. Right after going from a cell tower access road to single track, these rock steps just beg you to push through them.

great Chuck's Loop X3 4.8 mi 00:45 09:18 pace
Went out with no plan except putting in some trail miles on the Altras and being home for a slightly late dinner. Did two loops at moderate effort and one easy.

great Cybex Arc Trainer 0.69 mi 00:15:00 21:44 pace
The contraption Marsi talked me into trying. Basically something in between an elliptical and running/hiking uphill.

You're an Inspiration:
Never seen one of those, could be good for building up strength in the legs, we have one that resembles cross country skiing with its movements maybe that's similar to this one

great Bolder PRIX 5k PR! 5 km 00:21 06:51 pace
I don't have an official time, but I do have the little ticket saying I qualified to run the "B" wave of Bolder Boulder. That means I ran it under 21:29. Since the guy right behind... read more

@Ameet - I don't think I can help you - you're running is typically just a few seconds/mile faster than me. But I appreciate the compliment.

great MLE 10 mi 01:10 07:00 pace
Mid-Long Elliptical. Terrible traffic on the way home, so it was dark and raining. Along with wanting to reduce impact late in a training cycle made the elliptical a good decision.
