    good Trashy 21 21.33 mi 03:27 09:41 pace

    This cycle I wanted to test myself more on long runs, so I stuck with a 20+ mile run, after yesterday evening's 10K. Figured the legs were a little trashed, so I got my test. Also did this s... read more

    Christine M. is back on the road, so we got some early morning miles in the 'hood. Missed David S. , but I wasn't worried, I knew he'd get his in no matter what.

    good Extra Rest Day #2

    Last weekend trashed my legs. I tell myself it's OK to take an extra day (or two). But it's good to get a reminder to actually do it or not feel like a slacker for doing it. Feeling mu... read more

    good Week 3, Day 1 - 200 Situps
