4 mi. This was a first, Paul sneaking in a mile for time days before most people were racing! I stayed back with Gary, thinking that would be 6:15 ish, but he ran a 6:02 and I was a step off that. I felt good after the mile which was in the middle of the … Continue reading Miles before a local race?

7.5 mi. I ran my first three laps in 85 deg heat solo, and spent the final three with Lily F., talking about all the consecutive races she is doing + MiamiMan things. It was good to keep her pace, even though I'm probably not too far off the original level I was running pre … Continue reading Bridge under full moon

I did well on 400ms and 1200m distances. I felt breathing was coming on well, I had extra to … Continue reading Erica 2
20mi. I went out on the North 20mi TT loop and did very well. My average speed in the dark was 21.4mph. This is good for the upcoming Lake Worth Triathlon where the ride is 11 miles. I felt my legs going to the edge, pushing a high gear than I could reliably spin. It … Continue reading Love the North route
8mi. A Blue Heron Bridge run that told me my leg is healed, there is no difference between it and the good one. I ran with Kyle Smith for 5 of my miles on the bridge, he is very much improved, climbing, descending and breathing to support his activity. The breeze came from the east, … Continue reading It’s for real
16mi. Ran with Adrianna for the pre-store 6 miles. Then I did the 10 mi from the store with her as well. It was hot, I felt good over the final 3 miles, when I returned to the store my feet weren't as sweaty as last week. I know I have to increase my pace … Continue reading Making longer runs count

100 mi. This was an early 4am start with Charlotte, Walter and I. We were in the dark most of the way to the turnaround at Cumberland Farms, Ft. Pierce. The road we took to get there was nice, north of the Hutchinson Island bridges it was right along the Intracoastal waterway. Walter turned back … Continue reading 100 miler
