8mi. There are no lights on the north side of the bridge where we run. Thankfully the construction is done on the north side so it's not a free for all with the traffic. Walter came after my first lap of warmup, and we ran 3 laps with John Reback. I wasn't as slow as … Continue reading I must like the mornings
30mi. It's not often that I get to ride after work so I took it. Charlotte came to my house and we rode on the busy streets of Military Trail, PGA Blvd., US-1, etc. It was breezy in the face both ways. Our average speed was low, and I was unable to get air into … Continue reading Sneak it in.
8mi. After snapping something that's supposed to be attached to my ribs off of my ribs, this first run back was a test. I found it difficult to breath all the way in or all the way out. I called in breathing in the middle. I was able to run, but not too fast. Charlotte … Continue reading Don’t miss a breath
5 mi. A very good track session that included a mile and some interesting 800m sprints. We were told to choose a lane based on mile speed, 8 min milers in the inside lane, then 7s in the 2nd lane, 6s in the third lane. I went in the 5+ min milers lane with only … Continue reading Pushing mile and 800s
31 mi. I rode after work instead of waking early, and I paid for the difference. It was very windy - 17-20mph from the Northeast. Not usually a problem, but I chose the Jupiter Inlet Beach park as my turnaround, which had me facing big winds going east on Northlake and al the way up … Continue reading A day early paid for in wind credits
2000 yards. When I swim alone, the LA Fitness option is a better choice. I am in and done quicker, plus I can stop and get something to eat if I want. I felt a good speed increase when my arm pull was something I concentrated on like a rythym. Here's what I did, substituting … Continue reading Closer and better solo
7.5 mi Bridge running is sometimes biased in that tere is no breeze heading one direction, and the other way is a relif. This morning was a mildest of relief breezes, I was hot even doing the 1 mile warmup. Charlotte came near the end of Lap #1, Scott Hicks came near the middle of … Continue reading No cool laps today
30mi. It was a good day to ride, a deceptive breeze from the northwest that didn't seem to help us much on the way back. Going up Jupiter Island, we had the large group ahead of us, which I wanted to avoid joining. We stayed behind them, then their group broke apart, so we increased … Continue reading Short but effective riding
16.5mi. It was an early rise, meeting Chaira, Charlotte and Adrienne at 5 to run to PGA and back before the regular store run. Chiara stashed bottles of water at PGA & FPL, which was good but then allowed us to take three brief stops instead of just two. This hurt when we arrived at … Continue reading Long run w/speed
