22 mi. If they really keep track somewhere in "run karma land" the miles you cover ('cause I don't) then I'm that much further towards the goal. I went to the Loggerhead 4 mile road race last night as a volunteer and watched some very impressive performances. Local pro Mitch Guirard came with a barely … Continue reading Twenty two more in the bucket

24mi. I'm not going to San Diego, but Walter is so I ran his long test run with him. Our route began at the store at 4am, we ran straight East on Donald Ross Rd for 3 mi then turned and back. At 5am, Adrienne, Chiara and Suzanne met us. Then we ran to PGA … Continue reading 24 for San Diego
16mi. The intent was a slow run. Done and Garmin verified, my average pace for the "5am start to PGA & back - store run to the Inlet and back"was 10:45. And still, for Palm 100, that will be too fast. I'm guessing I'll have to do walking interspersed with the slow pace running to … Continue reading Slow all the way
16 mi. First day running with a new generation Garmin vs the Timex Garmin relic I had stopped using years ago. I didn't look at the instructions, just charged it and wore it. I guess I have to get the settings correct and establish a Garmin Connect account. I ran early with Adrienne Papa, Steve … Continue reading 16 – get in line.
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…
10 miles. It is an unlikely day when I'm doing this many miles after work, but the chance came - so go. Chiara and Walter were planning this, I did not run at the bridge early this morning so it was ripe for me to makeup the time on my feet from a lackluster mileage … Continue reading 10 @ 7
22 mi It gets HOT and humid for run training in South Florida. We enjoyed a relatively cool winter and spring, temps kept lower than usual especially in the morning when I run. The heat is back, mid way through May I was reminded how the next 6 months will be. Charlotte suggested a long … Continue reading If at first you don’t remember
26.2 mi. This was year 6 for the A1A race, I erroneously posted year 7 on Facebook. I had heard it was going to be a warm day to run, but in previous years I'd known it to be warmer, so I wasn't concerned about that. If all went well as I planned and trained … Continue reading A1A Marathon 2011
22.5 mi Starting at 4:30am, Charlotte and I did the Jupiter Island circuit run. I felt warm enough to go shirtless, but mist, fog and a breeze from the Northwest gave me something to think about once we turned around on the island. Coral Cove park restrooms are locked early am. I felt good for … Continue reading Runs of unexpected length ahead.
5 mi. Today I was hoping for 6 x 800m at race pace workout. Instead, Paul was absent, Erica planned the day, and here's how it went. 1 mi warmup jog. 1200m w/200m recovery 200m w/200m recovery 200m w/200m recovery 1000m w/200m recovery 300m w/200m recovery 300m w/200m recovery 800m w/200m recovery 400m w/200m recovery 400m … Continue reading The last workout before the race.
