30 mi. Chiara set the idea in my head - "Let's ride after work..." Thinking I'd have a good chance at doing that, I agreed. As the day progressed, she found she couldn't do the ride at 5:30, then at 6:30, then at all. I was at this time, ready to go. I drove home, … Continue reading I’ll do it myself anyway

2000 yards. Seems like my last few swims have been mostly repetitive 75m intervals. I do them, it seems to take awhile to get to the pool, do the workout, and drive back to work in time. Long arms, good breathing. Warmup Set (300y) 3 x 100 easy-mod @ 2:20 Main Set (1400y) 18 … Continue reading More 75s?
8 mi. No relief from the breeze today, only a small amount of wind from the west helped make the climb west bearable. I ran with Walter who flies to Sydney after going home to shower, he will miss a few workouts next month due to Aussie and NZ trips. Paul stopped shortly after our … Continue reading Very hot hills
7.5 mi Took my time getting started, I ran only one lap around the parking lot with Walter before Chiara and Charlotte arrived ready to run. This was maybe the first time in a very long time that the four of us came to run the bridge together. It may be the last with Charlotte's … Continue reading Final Four
100mi. Showing up to start at 3:30am makes for a tired ride in the dark. Anita brought Austin who was the most excited of the three of us to do the century ride. Charlotte's last big ride would be on her Specialized Transition. Big difference, as she was strong in the late miles as we … Continue reading One hundred hot ones.
16mi. Surely before a century ride I should relax and be sociable, run light and be strong for tomorrow, right? Steve Bernstein, Walter and I ran 16 starting at 5am, easy running to PGA and back. (self supplied water with no jug at FP&L anymore) At the store we barely made it to the water … Continue reading Tape these together and they look very nice…
5 mi. Perry called out the intervals today, a really hot and still humid morning. No relief from a breeze or a temp under 83 at 5:30am. We ran the following workout. 1 mi warmup jog 1000m w/200m recovery 400m w/200m recovery 200m w/200m recovery 800m w/200m recovery 800m w/200m recovery 600m w/200m recovery 400m … Continue reading No Paul, no mile…
8 mi. I can't remember having the bathrooms locked before and after a Blue Heron Bridge run. The water fountain worked, but that's all. I ran with Charlotte and Chiara, who crept up the hills on the sidewalk then zipped past us on each downhill portion. Low attendance from others in the area. Teresa and … Continue reading No relief
40 mi. I know a later start exposes me to more heat, but I guess I needed a reminder! I attended a product testing event at Lululemon and ran 2-3 miles. That had me arrive later than the advertised 9am for the ride up and back with a smaller than usual group. I rode to … Continue reading 40@10
16 mi. I started at 5am with Walter, a run to PGA Blvd and back where I brought a 12oz water bottle and left it at FPL for the way back. Once at the store, I saw Chiara and Suzanne ready for their 10 miles. I ran with both of them and Steve Bernstein, discussing … Continue reading LSD – Long silly distance
