16 mi. I missed my chance to run in cooler weather by staying out late Friday night, not waking up Saturday at 4:30am to start running at 5 solo. So my Sunday began a few minutes later than planned with a loner workout. I started atLoggerhead park and headed south in the dark. To PGA … Continue reading Rolling towards Boyleston St
Today was my first track episode in maybe four weeks. I have not gotten faster in that time off. Jen Q has grown faster, she ran well today as did Gary Walk. The 66 degree weather on April 2nd, that was wonderful! 1mile of warmup jog... 1200m w/200m recovery 300m w/100m recovery 300m w/100m recovery … Continue reading Getting caught up
I haven't been here in a few weeks, I am first to the Blue Heron Bridge run at just before 5am. I ran some hills in Denver, but not enough times to say,"I trained while away." Two parking lot laps and I'm on the bridge. Eating at Moe's last night always puts pressure on my … Continue reading Cooler for a bit longer

I have the Boston Marathon in four weeks. We can't blank-out for a whole week of running. Mike, our host for … Continue reading Denver south and the hills!
4mi. I arrived a bit late to start the regular warmup with the group - a surprising number of over 20 people. There were a few kids from high school there, and some other guys I didn't recognize. Paul's run through the intervals wasn'ta big surprise, but I don't think anyone guessed it all correctly … Continue reading More than a few are training now
4 mi. This was my first run since the marathon on Sunday. I figured I'd be conservative this time and stay on a physically healthy track for the Boston Marathon. Our intervals included a mile for time, in which I ran with Gary Walk and Dave Garfield at a 6:33 mile. here's how it stacked … Continue reading Relaxed recovery at the track
The morning was nice, I met Jeff and Cammie at the finish line area with designs of parking a car at the finish and one at the start. I arrived at the Sheraton Yankee Clipper about 5am, too early for someone to be manning the parking structure. I parked in the valet lot next to … Continue reading A1A Marathon 2014

I told her about it on Saturday's run and she came to the early am run. 600m w/200m recovery 600m w/200m recovery 800m w/300m recovery 800m w/300m recovery 800m w/200m recovery 400m w/200m recovery 400m w/200m recovery 200m w/200m recovery … Continue reading Before the A1A attempt
6 mi. After a mile warmup solo in the parking lot, I found Scott Hicks by a rental minivan waiting to start the bridge run with me. Notable non-running things about today's workout were the many police and border control vehicles congregating around the parking lot and on Blue Heron Blvd. something was brewing boat … Continue reading Bridge guest
