  1. goodDay 76: Spring 1.5 mi / 00:13:12 08:47 pace

    With a very small and tentative voice I will say that Spring has sprung here in New York. I hesitate to shout it due to our propensity for late March and even April snow storms that can blanket a very reluctantly springy city in white. In any event, to... read more

    My assigned workouts for today included an easy, one hour spin as well as: Steady zone 2 only. Do not deviate relax good form. Fast light feet. However, I told Coach Jeff that I really felt like pushing it a little bit, to which he said I could do my s... read more

  4. goodEasy West Side spin 19.33 mi / 01:11 16.4mph pace

    It was such a GORGEOUS day outside today. I began my ride feeling like I was absolutely flying downtown...and I was...because of the wind! Felt great and I got some much needed sun on my pasty legs. Coach Jeff said that this was to be an easy spin with... read more

  5. good3400 Meter Swim 3400 yd

    Yesterday after my long, boring dreadmill run, I did a bit of core work and some lifting. As a result, I am sore today and I LOVE IT! For whatever reason, I adore the feeling of being sore and swimming. It somehow lets me really feel whats going on and... read more

  6. goodDay 74: When Will it End? 1.71 mi / 00:13:02 07:37 pace

    This week seems to be one of waiting. Waiting for this frickin' weather to go away (we are currently on day four of wicked, nasty weather and wind). Waiting for my daughter to decide to arrive! Seriously, these two things are not helping. I realized to... read more

      I'm sure you all have a lot of things on your minds (i.e. the impending birth of your daughter) than getting in the miles, yet you do so everyday. Very inspiring Brandon and great pace. Those Newton's and Coach Jeff are taking you to new heights in 2010.

  7. alrightDay 73: Boring 13.5 mi / 01:45 07:46 pace

    The weather did indeed force me inside for my run today. That being said, I really have nothing terribly interesting to say about this run because it was, well, not terribly interesting. I hopped on the treadmill and just kind of ran, at a comfortable ... read more

      Nice work on the "indoor" marathon, Brandon. Not quite the same as being outdoors, but you got through it.

      I am so glad my indoor running is on a track at the gym instead of on the TM. At least I get smiled at, cheered on, and talked to on most of my indoor runs. Cannot imagine running that long on a TM even with the TV's (which would be too hard to read running anyway). Great job and very inspiring the way you get those runs in every day Brandon!!!

      the hamster wheel is never fun. Outside for me rain, sleet or snow. Weather never stops me.

    My run today was the second part of a brick that began with a three and a half hour ride on the trainer. I also knew that the run would be taking place in some INTENSELY wicked weather. The rain was coming down hard and the wind was gusting far in exce... read more

      Great report considering you had a 67 mile trainer routine earlier. Nice work and effort today.

  10. alrightDay 71: Cool Weather Hurricane 1.46 mi / 00:11:49 08:05 pace

    My assigned run for today was for an hour and fifteen minutes fairly slow. It was only a mile.

    I knew early in the day today that this was a very distinct possibility due to the weather. Forecasters were calling for rain and high winds, and they were ... read more
