Running Mania

6K on the roads before breakfast. Now out for coffee and then car-shopping.

WOW Nick -- I had not realized you were back running again -- awesome!! Happy car shopping!!

I will be running 65 km this evening/night in preparation for the overnight portion of my race in a month -- testing out headlamps, nutrition, clothes, etc..... should be an interesting time ...

Finally something to report in the daily thread again! 7km this morning - very slow, with liberal inclusion of walk breaks, but after three weeks of virtually no running, I'm glad to be back at it.

Good luck Sylvie! Wow!

16k@6m/k

It was really nice out there today!

3 weeks since I last ran. Today I will swim and then some core work. I miss running.

66 minutes of pretty face paced Spin class this morning. Lungs are finally back to normal so back to running tomorrow!

Have a good run!

Had a nice 13k this morning. Golf next, drinks and dinner later.

Can't decide what to do today. I was going to swim, but I'm more in the mood to run- perhaps will go to the gym and run on the treadmill.

Good luck and have fun!!! Which reminds me, when I get back from New Mexico, I shall have to double check my headlamp and back-up flashlight some night!

Great!!

It was supposed to be a rest day on my Shiprock, New Mexico taper but it was sooooooooo nice out. I ended up doing a nice 15 km trail run on the Walter Bean trail near my place!! Very enjoyable!!

Sounds like fun!

Did 16km in light drizzle this morning, it was very nothing rain that barely got us damp.

That was followed with coffee and snacks and some schmoozing, then a 2km jog to GI before a very soggy Dragon Boat practice. Either my egg white omelet for second breakfast was inadequate or crap sleep last night caught up with me, I completely powered out about 10 minutes before practice ended. Third breakfast and beer perked me up for a while but I'm ready for a nap about now.

9 km run this morning through the trails in Medicine Hat. The weather was great.

one-hour on the treadmill it was.

Took rest day today and will do last long run before marathon tomorrow (10 miles)

I was planning to run today but I was so tired that I took two naps and read my book instead. :)
