    great Just like a Hillbilly! 9.86 km 00:59 09:35 pace

      A bummer about the tooth and the dentist w/o integrity. :( I hope your appointment goes well and that today's run helped with the frustration you may be feeling about this. :) Good wishes your way!

    alright I'm Sofa King Tired 8 km 00:50 10:03 pace

    I will spare everyone the details of why I only got 2 hours sleep last night and just say that this was not as painful as I thought it would be-I did cut it 2 km short but I am very glad I went out... read more

      Hahaha - I didn't get your title yesterday. I thought you were so tired, you'd become the Sofa King. But then I wondered why you weren't the Sofa Queen. A good night's sleep, reread the title, and then, "duuuhhhhhh". LOL WTG pushing yourself even when you are tired!

    great Balls to the Wall! 10 km 00:59 09:28 pace

    After last nights horrible run I was nervous headed out today but I had no need because this was just excellent! I took it easy going out and came back with a 1:15 minute negative split. Nice :) E... read more

    alright Craptastical! 9.75 km 01:03 10:23 pace

    I just could not find my groove tonight.Everything felt tight, awkward and messy. I held on for as long as I could but I could not even make it to 10km! I guess a day of poor eating and hydrating a... read more

    Warm sunshine-capris, baseball hat, t-shirt...what more can you ask for for January 31st! Just a lovely day for an easy pace run. I was planning to go into tonight to run with a friend who is runni... read more

  10. RUN
    great One at a Time! 5 km 00:32 10:17 pace

    What a cool workout! It was not so much a run per se but more like a high intensity session. I ran one km at a time on the treadmill with 4 minutes between before it resets-in each of the 4 minutes... read more

    great Good Life 25.52 km 02:41 10:07 pace

    good This Old House. 6 km

    I was down in the dungeon on the treadmill for this one. Just as I was ramping up for a fast finish the fuse blew! Not sure of the time overall but I know I was at 6 kms. This was an easy torture s... read more

    good Windy Tempo. 10 km 00:57 09:10 pace

    2 things to not do before a tempo-don't eat a bran muffin and don't have a massage! These actually ended up being more like km intervals at tempo pace. I had to stop and walk for 20sec. before I be... read more

    great The Long Way Home. 23.3 km 02:30 10:19 pace

    It was a beautiful sunny morning for a long run but very cold. We had fresh snow last night which made this a challenge the entire distance along the country roads. My running buddies from St Thoma... read more

      Nice hill work, Becky. People like that driver are the reason that we have a middle finger.

      That's a shame. Thoughtless and agressive drivers are probably the single biggest repetitive issue for most of us as runners. Nice job dodging the lunatics for a great 9 km, Becky!

    great Here COmes the RAin Again. 5 km 00:27 08:42 pace

    The question was do I run this on the treadmill or go outside in the pouring rain? Of course I went outside! It is balmy for January and the snow is once again gone. It has been raining since 6 pm ... read more
