8 mi. I knew tomorrow I could wake up at 4:15 and do this run, but really, I don't have to be up early, I could run with Bob Anderson's group and have it all done. Better plan! I drove there and arrived at 5:30pm for the 5:45 group. Next in the lot was Bob … Continue reading Saved the best for…NOW!

An offhanded description of what I did and what I thought of during the run…
10mi. Palm Beach on Christmas Day - a great idea for a run. John and I easily made the drive to the center of WPB on completely empty roads. I guess this was a first. not having to open the gifts before anything else. John and I both thought this would be a good idea … Continue reading The Christmas Run
8mi. Today I was first to the lot, first to run, and first to encounter the high or drunk homeless guy at the water fountain and bathroom. He asked me if I knew what time it was, when I said (and showed him) I didn't have a watch, he started to yell at me that,"I'd … Continue reading Bridge runnah
6 mi. Today instead of riding, John and I went to Loggerhead park to run with Erica and Walter. We set it up last night while at dinner, we'd agreed to meet and start at 7am. John surprised me, I thought he would bail out and sleep. The cyclists, not many of them, were meeting … Continue reading More of what yesterday brought.
10 mi. I had a 20 miler or at least 16 planned, in my head. A company dinner Friday night at ER Bradleys was well done, I had eaten well, too. Smokey chicken and pasta for lunch, more penne a la vodka for dinner. The night included some drinks with dinner, some shots with franchisees … Continue reading Back to a normal sense of, no wait…
4 mi. I met Erica early and we did the warmup a tad faster than most. We ran and talked with Tom Matese, his son did a 17:12 in the state championship last week! Erica's workout was to do twelve 400m repeats at 1:35 pace. We did the first one in 1:38, and every other … Continue reading I’ll take a dozen 400s to go.
1 hr - Ran the River route again, but this time took new field support rep and room mate Andrew Collins. We took a path trying to retrace the way I came home the other day. We ran about 9 min miles was my guess. Andrew has done some adventure style races and mud runs, … Continue reading The river revisted
1 hr 15 min - This morning I left the hotel to run as it was still dark. Not knowing which way to go, I figured that the path surrounding the stadium oval I could see from my room was a good place to try for. It was under construction, with an older soccer pitch … Continue reading Adelaide solo run
4mi. "...at the nursing home!" says Paul as he assigns us our second timed mile for the morning. We don't get "miles for time" except for about each five or six weeks. But today, getting a mile interval so early in the workout made many of us think that we'd be trying to better the … Continue reading We do this workout all the time…
7 miles. I came early to find only one car in the lot before me... A girl that ran the first half lap with me in the parking lot. Hannah was new to the running schedule but I'd seen her at the track workouts, she is looking to do a few local runs and is … Continue reading Cooler and dedicated
