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
7.5 mi Half a cooldown run with Walter made an ordinarily 8 mile run 7.5. My footbed on the left shoe was a bit annoyed with the hills in the Gel Kayanos, not sure why, I've used them before and no ill effects came about as of Saturday's 10 miler. This run was good, breezy … Continue reading BBR (Bridge before race)
18mi. The final long run on near mileage expired shoes, I started with Steve, Lilia, Chiara and Walter at 5am. A bathroom break in the sea oats bushes outside McDonalds kept me from the group until I met them at the turnaround by PGA Blvd. Once at the store, I took plenty of Accelerade and … Continue reading 18 mi. of mixed intervals
7 mi. I skipped the cool down laps, my newer Aasics Gel Kayanos felt somewhat tight on my left forefoot. Like the tingling feeling I got on that foot for the 50 miler. I ran with Walter, good average speed, nice breeze and a quick over all finish time. Paul was running, Kyle Smith, Randi, … Continue reading Good effort = more gas in the tank.

7 mi. I ran in what was 0 mph wind and cool conditions today. My 5 laps on the bridge were with Walter and the final two Scott H joined in. I stopped at 5 hills because of a compelling nature call. It was the most ideal day you could run the bridge, I had … Continue reading The best day for bridge running
16 mi. A 5am start in 50 degree weather means I'm wearing tights and gloves. I wore the correct things for the first 6 miles to PGA & back, then at 6am I erroneously shed the gloves. I should have kept those. Not to be one upped, Chiara shed her jacket, gloves, and wore no … Continue reading Good weather if you’re dressed right
