    greatshirtless run™ – 7.7 mi / 00:59 07:41 pace

    Beautiful day. 70's and sunny. I enjoyed it by going for a little stroll around town without looking at the watch and just listening to my body.

    greatrecovery jog – 1.6 mi

    Took Kodak out for a little jog. A mini Dachshund is not the best running breed. :)

    Broke in Brooks Launch pair #5 that... read more

      Not sore? Impressive. The weather was much better than the Richmond marathon (where we were all about to crawl into a grave), I am sure that was a big bonus.

    My favorite workout outfit:
    half split shorts and running sunglasses. Nothing beats a shirtless run!

    greateasy run – 5.5 mi / 00:42 07:41 pace

    It must have been the weather because I tried everything I could to keep this run slow - it felt like I was walking. I ran the hills from the 81 overpass on Senseny Rd to the Country Store and back 2 times. Then through a bit of the park.

    Hey everyone, share a pic of your favorite workout outfit. You know, that one that motivates you to push a little harder.

    goodlong run – 11 mi / 01:20 07:18 pace

    It's been raining since Thursday night. I was supposed to run part of this with Presley but she bailed on me to run on the treadmill. I put it of as long as possible and somehow, the rain stopped just a few miles in. What a relief.

    Wanna see my worst race photo?
    Here it is. Taken at the finish of a 5k in 22 degree weather with winds gusting over 20 miles an hour.
    (pulling my balaclava under my chin is not a flattering look)
