Short run

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

I did 3.25 last night at the park where Sunday’s race will be.  I was pretty tired from Sunday’s 8 miles, but nothing broken.  My calves are a little sore but I think that’s ok or now.  I will take my rest day today and go to the gym instead for a little fat burning.  [...]

Running and racing

Sunday, August 3rd, 2008

I’m still alive.  Please don’t report this as a dead blog.
I’ve been running and training for New Haven.  I ran a couple 5K’s so far this summer (which turned out dreadful and sad). At this point I am a full minute/mile behind my 5K PR.  :(
A friend is learning to run again and she’s doing [...]

Is this thing on?

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

Egads.  When did I become such a bad blogger?  At least in the last two weeks anyway.  :(
I have been running a bit and working hard.  I’ve also picked up a few new internet hobbies so I’ve been blowing away some of my spare time on that.  Not such a good plan.
A few weeks ago [...]

Care to try?

Ok, so now I have to eat crow and say that the shoes have arrived. However, these are size 13 and high heeled. I wear size 12 and flats, so I can’t do any kind of evaluation of them, unless I tried mowing the lawn in them. They are a nice color [...]

I forgot to title this post

Ok, the first week at the new job has been really hectic. SO MUCH to learn! I don’t like to talk about where I work because in this case it will be easy place it. Must not blog about work. But…
Let me say that its a manufacturing job, NOT patent work. [...]

George had an interesting week. So did I.
Day 1 is tomorrow. :)

Almost outed again

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Someone in my office is planning on running in a race that I ran in before.  We were in my office talking about it and I couldn’t remember when it was.  So I went to Google and googled the name of the race.  What came up directly beneath active.com’s link for it?
My blog.
Fortunately, she pointed [...]

Rabbit

Monday, May 19th, 2008

I was heading outside for a run tonight and saw the neighbor’s cat with something near the side of our house. The cat kills alot of chipmunks, so I headed over to see what she had. It turns out it was a baby rabbit. The cat ran away (because she’s a chicken [...]

Run cut short

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

I went out for an hour run this morning. My son had swimming lessons so I had to make sure I was back in time to bring him. I checked my watch I did the math and knew my plan. Half way out I checked the watch again and calculated another 15 [...]

Run run?

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

This weekend my wife’s family was visiting, but oddly enough I found time to exercise. I got an hour of running in on Saturday. Sunday I went to the gym (early!) and got an hour on the machines there. AND last night I ran for half an hour. I think this [...]
