3 miles and a plan!

| November 29, 2004

I did my three miles tonight on the gerbil mill. 9:00 pace. Not much to say about it. I wore my Nike’s and put the old Superfeet inserts in them. I really don’t like those inserts and I want to get the other brand but I can’t think of the name. Their blue and had [...]

And I ran

| November 27, 2004

I finally went out and ran. Off to the park for a quick 3 miles. Actually, it turned out to be 6. After one lap, I just felt like going again. And you know what? Its very cold in the winter. It was 40F or so, but windy and it felt pretty cold. I wore [...]

Sloth

| November 27, 2004

Another example of why I am a sloth. But I’m trying to make the excuses more interesting.

Sad news

| November 26, 2004

A local fellow running blogger posted some really bad news last night. Christy could use the kindness and support of the RBF today.

The Graph

| November 24, 2004

As I try to get myself back down to a comfortable weight again, I dug up my old data/journal for when I lost my original 40 pounds. I started on my plan a few days after visiting my father in the hospital when he had a stroke. I was on the same path and I [...]

Crosstraining, the broken record of my life

| November 24, 2004

An hour of *yaaaawwwwwn* crosstraining tonight. But tomorrow, I run! I don’t care if its cold. I don’t care if there is snow. I’m putting the turkey in the oven and then I go running. Weight this AM: 182.6. Lower than I thought since Saturday I saw 186′s. Belly measurement: 35.5. Again, lower than I [...]

A little crosstraining and more goals.

| November 23, 2004

I did a short 20 minute ride on the stationary bike and then a walk with my wife around the track. Not much of a workout but I’m coming back into this slowly. I really hurt my right leg in the race. I’m very certain now. Over a week and it still has that funny [...]

Not so good, but getting better.

| November 23, 2004

Its been a rough 4 days. Can’t really get into details but alot of things have been piling up. Things are moving back on track now though. Sorry if I haven’t been visiting blogs much or responding to email. No running since Thursday. My shins still hurt. My right leg is not painful anymore, maybe [...]

A tale of two chocolates.

| November 19, 2004

It was the best of chocolate, it was the worst of chocolate. Ok, it wasn’t the worst but the Korkunov chocolate was bad. It was quite dark, but in a bitter and not flavorful way. Bland bitter. Boring. Awful. I’m not sure what went wrong with their chocolate from the tree to the bar, but [...]

Nice day!

| November 18, 2004

Just a beautiful day outside today. Clouds and fog but warm. 63F while I ran. Just marvelous for November. I had planned on the gym but I’ll take running outside any day that I can get it. I did an hour of crosstraining yesterday and I was a little sore from the race still. Isn’t [...]
