4 mi. No cooldown time today, but with Erica running the workout, our shortest interval was a 400m. I decided to lay off the track speed today, it doesn't feel like I've done 30 miles less than a week ago but it's definitely not forgotten by my legs. I ran behind Gary Walk most intervals, … Continue reading Track on moderate level

2000m. After I drop John, it's kinda too early to hit the office, so I've incorporated swimming at the LA Fitness that lies between John's school and the office. I don't have the Swim Planner App on my phone anymore, so I just get in, swim 40 touches tot he other side and I'm done. … Continue reading Swim reluctance
8 mi. One of those days when John is sleeping at home so I know I need to run, not chatter at the end, and get home and ready for school. I ran the warmup lap #1 with Teresa. She saw Missy parking just before 5am and decided to go right to the bridge after … Continue reading It takes longer somedays
50 mi. Our Sunday group was geared to go "longer than 60" because many of them are registered in 1/2 or full Ironman events in October and November. I don't need all of that, a good ride on a nice day is what I was after. I rode the first piece of the morning with … Continue reading 25 on/25 off
30mi. "Hey Dave! It's Saturday morning. You went to the Square Grouper 'til 1am. Why not wake up at 2:40am and start a 3:15am run from the store?" That's what's bouncing around in my head. It would be easier to try the long run next week. After 5 days of Hurricane Isaac rains, I'm not taking … Continue reading 30 miles for fun?
5 mi With a new surface, Benjamin HS track still doesn't have all the air bubbles out of the track nor does it have lane lines painted yet. It is a great place to run, and those little details don't stop some of the north county's best runners from their Thursday workouts with Coach Paul. … Continue reading Laneless track
Spin class for 3+ hours? That was Teresa's great idea for our storm-scuttled Sunday morning. She opened up KrankIT spin studio and twenty of us showed up at 5:30am to ride indoors and air conditioned instead of outdoors, wet and wind-blown. We watched Hangover Two, that took most of two hours, then pedaled through an … Continue reading 184 minutes
19mi. I ran at 5am which means at least a 16 miler. Suzanne S. is now training for the NYC marathon, so her Saturdays will be spent running long before the Amelia Island 1/2 Ironman, then maybe one after that. IT was raining hard at times, with wind and the beginnings of the hurricane/tropical storm … Continue reading Long run with Suzanne
8 mi. "You run through the pain with your head." This statement from Megan Hartman summarizes my 6 miles of hills. She is a local runner, friend of Teresa and Angie's that came in second overall at Saturday's Dreher Park Dash. She ran in high school and at Clemson, with a best ever 5k in … Continue reading New hill mentality
50mi. I could have guessed today's ride would be different... While driving to the park, it was dark at 6:20am? How would a group be starting at 6:30 I though. I arrived to a mostly empty parking lot. I knew Suzanne M. and Rick were going to the Key Biscayne Triathlon, maybe they took Sal … Continue reading 50 early and alone
