    good Bike to Work 7.5 mi 00:30 15.0mph pace

    Couldn't pick up a GPS signal so I'm padding this ride. Pretty easy ride to work while listening to our all hands meeting, better than trying to wake up even earlier to get to the office for the me... read more

    good Bike to Work 7.46 mi 00:31 14.5mph pace

    Plan was to run before biking to work: fail! Need to get in a run or two this weekend before next week's 10K in LA w/ my brother and his friends. I beat all of them last year so I'm pretty sure I h... read more

  3. RUN
    good 3000 meter run 1.86 mi 00:11:39 06:15 pace

    Wasn't sure how well I'd do on this event. I never liked the 2 miler when I was in high school. Good thing this was 200 meters short of that! Felt more comfortable in this race, but they combined m... read more

    good 1000 meter sprint 0.62 mi 00:03:14 05:12 pace

    Wow. I am not fit to be a short distance runner. Thought it'd be a good idea to go to a track meet to see what kind of speed I have left. None! It was basically a bunch of high schoolers and a few ... read more

    They say the sun shines brightest after the storm. Well it wasn't necessarily a storm, which is why the sun wasn't that bright today. But it was out, just not enough because it was still a cold rid... read more

  7. RUN
    good Carlsbad Half Marathon 13.18 mi 01:34 07:08 pace

    I knew I was going to improve from last week (1:38), just not sure how much. I ran with the 1:35 pacer for about 9 miles and then took off on my own to push the pace. It was tough, but I hung on an... read more

    good Morning 5K 3.19 mi 00:29 09:11 pace

    Very light fog out today, which meant another chilly run. Felt pretty good though, unintentional negative splits: 10:11, 9:36, 8:18. Can't wait for my next half this Sunday (don't you just love bac... read more

      It was in the 20's around our area this morning, that's why I waited until later in the morning to go ride.

    alright Los Angeles 13.1 Half Marathon 13.19 mi 01:38 07:25 pace

    Great race considering how little I've been running lately. Was able to go at a pretty consistent pace throughout, around 7-7:30ish. Some slight hills, but nothing too daunting. Felt good to race a... read more

      Thanks all, it was a good race, but I'm definitely paying for it now for not training as hard and not racing since November. My legs are pretty sore! And of course I have Carlsbad half this weekend :)
