5 miles. 4 days post A1A Marathon, and no Seth, Zeke, or anyone to chase at track today. I am glad my legs feel good, but today is not a day I need to be a leader of the intervals. Mike Sheehan is there and he brings a friend. Mike ran next to me or … Continue reading Shouldn’t be me
5mi. Today in when the "once a year runners" show up at track and tune in for the Run 4 The Pies. It was threatening rain, but I checked radar and spoke via text with Janet before committing and leaving to run. I ran from the car to the track, sloshing in more water on … Continue reading Misty Morning for track
5mi. I arrived in good time, time enough to enjoy a 64-degree warmup with a shirt on! It has been so out of character warm as of late. I leave windows open in my house, but no cool weather arrives - so it's time to seal up and rely on air conditioning. I ran near … Continue reading A small commitment

5mi. I knew it was going to be cold out so I dressed appropriately. I wore TNF legs, a cotton short sleeve shirt, an Under Armour Cold Gear long sleeve, a windbreaker and a head beanie. Gloves throughout the whole workout, this was a good strategy! I took off the jacket after warmup and felt … Continue reading I got it right
4 mi No cooldown today, my right ankle, injured, treated, iced often, doesn't need much more on my first track play back. Very good to see many people for the first time in two months.
