    Got a late start and a combination of sun, temperature and humidity did me in. Couldn't even get 4 miles in. Felt okay but the heat didn't feel good. Tried to do some short walks then run... read more

    A little stiff this morning, probably due to working construction as opposed to my long run. Almost talked myself out of this run even though it was a scheduled short one. Cloudy and humid, but tha... read more

      Nice work Jim! That's quite a combo. And nice job of talking yourself out of talking yourself out of it! :D

      Heck of a workout there today! Eh, probably a combo of both the long run and work--you're such a trooper to get that foot out the door! Hope you get to rest some :)

    Another late start. Overcast and seemed pretty humid. Had a 23:27 split (9:23), so again I finished faster than I started 22:53 (9:09). Felt a little clunky but it doesn't look that way time-w... read more

    A great day to run. Got a late start again but did get to work on a new morning/warm-up routine. Decided to run on the opposite side of Ward Parkway (more sun on that side) and it was like running ... read more

      I always weigh on Friday--it's after 5 days of fairly clean eating and far out from the pitfalls of the weekend :). Great 6 and fun you got a change of scenery!

    Kind of a late start for me. A combination of trying a new morning warm-up routine (fail), a drop in my weight (which should be impossible because of all the ice cream I ate yesterday), and getting... read more

      Sweet miles, Jim! My weakness is salt,

    Worked this morning but didn't feel like a run after. Rode to the libraries and instead of running then, I ate 2 bowls of frozen yogurt. I know, not good. Just felt "off". Finally ab... read more

      Way to get out there after you thought you weren't today!! Think of the froyo as carbo loading for the long run tomorrow ;)

    good Wornall & Sunset via Ward Par... 6.14 mi 00:59 09:38 pace

    This was supposed to be a long easy run but I went out too fast. Kept the pace pretty well but just ran out of gas at the 6 mile mark. Walked the rest of the way home but that was okay.

  14. RUN
    good 5 mi 00:46 09:06 pace

    Felt kind of down in the dumps yesterday, so didn't run. But the sun came out this morning, so I felt a lot better. Took my 180bpm Podrunner tunes today. Still tilting my head backward if I lo... read more

      Lol, everyone has something they can't stop once they start--mine is definitely peanut butter, I literally can't buy it. Great work on the 3 with the grass and nice bodyweight after! Hope you enjoyed your cheat day!

      Believe it or not, I had trouble "eating everything" - starches felt heavy and sugary things too sweet. Ha ha ha. Taking those things out of my weekly diet has already started to change my tastebuds. SMILE
