24.25 miles in 3:17:21 at 8:08 mins/ mile
I was dealing with some extra nervous energy today and had to consciously work at subduing my pace throughout this run. I had considered playing around with some race pace work today, but I decided to err on the side of caution and maintain a long, slow, [...]

Short run with Joe today. Tomorrow is my last scheduled long run before the taper begins.

I was short on time today so plowed through this power run on my lunch break. Sometimes it feels good to just blow things out a bit.

Just a short run today. I forgot to set my watch back to auto-lap so I didn’t get my mile splits today. It’s just as well, I was feeling pretty tired this morning anyway.
Ray asked about the gps that I’m using so I’ll post a plug [...]

I seem to be getting slower every week with these. I had a maximum heartrate of 189 on one of the miles and a few at 188 so I think I’m working just as hard, but my feet don’t seem to be turning [...]

Just a short run today, I’m actually still a bit sore from Saturday’s run. I’m still undecided about doing speed work tomorrow or waiting until Thursday. I’ll wait to see how I feel in the morning before I decide. The pictures are from Saturday’s Apple [...]

I kind-of hate to admit it, but I’m pretty sore today from my run yesterday. I guess that means I gave it all. I realized this week more than before that I haven’t been allowing enough recovery time in my training program. I dropped the speed [...]

Instead of a long run this week, I had a chance to compete in my first event of 2007 – the Apple Capital Loop Fun Run. This is a small town event put on by a local Jr High School. [...]

Short run with Joe today. I found an interesting article with some suggestions about how to reset the sacroiliac joint. I worked through some of the stretches a few times during the day today and think that it may be helping. I also bought [...]

I’m continuing with my rest week. I had a set back today with my si joint. I felt like I was back to almost 90% on my run this morning, but by this afternoon the pain had returned. It’s extremely frustrating to have none [...]
