Thinking about my friend at IMC, racing for MS.

LSDW this morning ... that is long slow dog walk! Took the pups on an early morning 6K walk. Crossed through the conference center where a large group of nuns are currently staying. One of them said my bi blue had the ugliest face she had ever seen on a dog! Nasty Nun!

Left leg still sore from yesterday. Going to call for a massage tomorrow and see if I can get things going nice and smooth again soon!

Rest day for me today. Headed to the beach later on.

easy 8K. Again. Working noon till five. Sad to be heading into my final week of summer vacation...

Yikes, it was pretty much dark when I woke up
Fueling up for 32K LSD this morning. Running solo for most but happy to say I've managed to con my brother into joining me for the middle 10, should help to break things up.
All the best to those racing today.

Rest day here too.

We ran 20 miles yesterday on our 1 year anniversary! And it went awesome!! 12:35 pace which is great for us and I got to swim in Lake Champlain at the end =) Foot was A-ok after this week's rest so that was a wise choice to do that this week.

Back to Montreal this afternoon. Have a good one.

30 mins Easy Pace, feeling great! I had many great teaching ideas while running - now to write them down!

[RunningSoldier]

Easy 6-8 km is the plan today after 17.5 LSD yesterday. Good day to all.

[purdy65]

Glad to hear the foot is A-OK Dr S!

32K done today in 3hr9m - VERY early. Happy to get it in, because it's rapidly heating up out there!

Just back from a nice and steady 16K lsd type effort run along the Ottawa River Parkway with Jo-Jo this morning ....

[Pat29]

33 km for me this morning. Did the first 28 km on my own then stopped at home to pick up my 10 month old and did the final 5 km pushing her in her Chariot.

Rest day!! Tracking my two friends who are racing IMC

Rest day!! Tracking my two friends who are racing IMC

is it just me or is the tracking site kinda lousy? I can only look up one person at a time, and can't refresh the results (have to submit the search again each time). Or is there a better spot that I'm missing?

[kpoire]

6km in Parc de la Gatineau. It was great to be back in the woods again although my heart really wasn't in it and with company here, I cut my originally planned 20km route short.

Have a great day everyone!

[militarybrat]

32kms LSD turned in to 22.5kms LSD, right ankle too painful. Prayin' it's not another stress fracture.

On a positive note: it's a beauty day, lots of runners out there today.

Happy runnin',

Went out the door at 8:30 this morn' for my LSD but I think I underestimated the heat.....after 20km I ducked back to the house to hose myself off...then 7 more added on....27km in total.....should have worn a hat for the first 20k!

[Jogger Barbie]

Nice 16 km this morning - was supposed to be 15 km but sometimes these things happen. The pace was great until the last couple of km when I had to fight through some GI issues; got through it without having to make a pit stop, and picked it up again near the end. It was warm out there but not nearly as humid as it's been so enjoyed that very much!

So the post-Midsummer cutback week is over and now it's back to serious training for Hamilton on November 7.

Hope all the racers are having a good day!

[orleansrunner1962]

30 km done today -- 18 km of it with the 1/2 clinic..... good run -- was getting really warm toward the end -- have had my chocolate milk, and a tall glass of tomato juice, and am now having a tomoto sandwich on whole grain bread -- I think I'm hitting all the stuff from yesterday's nutrition talk....

[richie-rich]

Happy to get it in, because it's rapidly heating up out there!

started my run at 8 and it was already starting to get steamy. by 9 it was hot. 18km done by 9:30. should have gone out 30 min earlier.

[Tori]

Another rest/sick day for me. I did spend the morning at the walk-in clinic and cannot wait for my antibiotics to kick in!

[Sir Crashalot]

Another crazy & wild Rest Day doing nothing
Groin was better than yesterday... woo! hoo!
Right heel is no better, no worse. Still can't land on it ... so no running yet.

[Joe Dwarf]

It's a cool day here, 10C as I write this (11:30) and looking like rain. Out the door for 15 km in a few minutes.

Beautiful morning for a 30K LSD in Edmonton as part of a 7-runner horde that comprised about half of the top marathon runners in the region.

[Jwolf]

32K in 3:18 . Very happy.
