  2. Up early on Preakness Saturday only to go out and run myself. No one will watch or bet on me, but I'll pretend I'm a thoroughbred anyway.

  3. RUN
    good First run in 10 days 4 mi 00:33 08:19 pace

    Legs a little tired, lungs a little heavy... But not bad.

  4. RUN
    good Supposed to be a lazy 10 10 mi 01:27 08:44 pace

    I planned on staying slow paced, but couldn't help picking it up. I had to stop a couple times to stretch but still felt good. First 10 since Cherry Blossom. Next 10 mile race in about 6 weeks.

  5. RUN
    great Quick 4 got quicker 4 mi 00:32 08:01 pace

    Pushed my pace faster along the way. The last mile was at 7:35

  6. RUN
    good Sole of the City 10 K 6.2 mi 00:52 08:26 pace

    Great race. Awesome shirt. I hate the wind. I feel like it takes a lot out of me.
    I ran a solid- consistent race though... My pace was on average 8:15-8:35. I had a lot left in the tank at the end... read more

  7. RUN
    good Broke it wide open 5 mi 00:41 08:06 pace

    Much better than I expected.
    Ran mile 3 at 7:45
    Mile 4 at 8:00
    Mile 5 at 7:29
    Woot-Woot!

    I was all set with excuses:
    Bad night sleep with sick boy
    Ran in the afternoon instead of morning
    Tweaked ... read more

  11. RUN
    good Cherry Blossom 10 10 mi 01:28 08:48 pace

    Way too crowded and slow first 3 miles. Knee sore from bobbing and weaving so had trouble making it up. Still felt strong at the end.

      Nice race! Hoping the cold start to spring will leave some blossoms for us to enjoy at the Nike Half in DC later this month.

    good Last long run before Cherry 10 8 mi 01:11 08:52 pace

    A little windy for my taste. A little tight in my left hamstring. Like last year, I have not run my race distance yet. I'm hoping for a little peak on race day. Proper water, food, and sleep a... read more

      Wind is the worst running condition. Enjoyed the flurries this morning, though.

    I actually dislocated my big toe and popped it back in the day before. Ouch!

  17. RUN
    alright New shoes and nursing my knee 6 mi 00:54 09:00 pace

    My right knee hurts but I still had to run. Softly.

  18. RUN
    good Sunday 7 7 mi 01:02 08:54 pace

    Very cold and windy. Got out late/afternoon. Would rather run earlier and is be less tired. Maybe thoughts of the snowstorm helped psych me up.

      Nice Sunday miles. It was windy this morning too.
      Excited to hear your thoughts on Wednesday. My sleds have collected cobwebs this winter.
