Crisp, cool morning. Very good run considering how sore I am from strength training earlier in the week.

Quick little jaunt on the 'mill. Looking to push the overall mileage up slowly, so I'm sprinkling in some short runs on my "off" days.

Travis did a fitness workout for 30 mins goodBodyPump – 00:30
First time out at the Health Club. Need to do some overall body strengthening so I can get serious about this Ultra thing. Good workout, more challenging than I expected.

Travis ran 9.32 miles in 1 hour and 15 mins goodGC South to Market, FM 18 loop – 9.32 mi / 01:15 08:05 pace
I'm awfully surprised at my overall pace today. The back half of today's run was nearly completely uphill and against wind gusts up to 40mph. Was that fun??

One of the nice perks of staying at my in-laws is that I really enjoy this little 10 mile loop. Several small hills, lots of turns in the road, and nice scenery keep it interesting.

Looks like you had a great run, Travis. Nice job!

Hey, thanks! I say that any run that doesn't include injury is a great run.

Had to crank out a quick run before getting my protein fix on the mixed grill at Bonnell's in Fort Worth. Good run, good eats.

Legs are still recovering from Saturday's Ultra, but not too bad. My thighs were fairly quick to remind me that I'm not fully recovered yet.

looks like a good pace to me, I still can't believe anyone would run 30+ miles! :o)

My first Ultra! Ran the first 23.4 miles with my wife and she was awesome. We then split as she finished up the marathon and I took off down the remainder of the Ultra path. Gorgeous weather and the legs got strong toward the end. After cruising at... read more

Congratulations to your wife for her marathon and to you on a great first ultra. I belong to a club full of avid runners, but even so, those of us who have ventured into ultra territory are called "crazy" and referred to as the Ultra Freaks. Welcome to the rank of Ultra Freak!

Hey, thanks. We'll see how "freaky" I can get. I was very surprised at how strong I was toward the end, so I don't think this is it for me. I guess a 50 miler will have to be the next goal...to be continued.

which club did you join? I'm looking at the Power Shack (I know that they and Hendrick have BodyPump)
3 days agoI joined Hendrick. I work at HSU, so the proximity is incredibly convenient. They offer quite a bit for the regular monthly rate and the people working there are tremendous. They also offer the art of strength (at a significant additional cost), but everything I've heard is that it is worth it. I might check it out once I feel confident that I'll consistently make good use of the club.
3 days agoyeah, that is nice and close. I live off of Buffalo Gap so it was just quite a schlep for me to get there. I was surprisingly impressed with the PS when I checked them out - kid-free pool, 24 hrs, and the classes. It's hard to find a good gym here...
3 days agoStick with it! It's tough at first, but gets easier, and really does help.
