Run – 0.9 hours – 11/29/2007

I’ve been meaning to mention a fantastic book that I just read, but haven’t taken the time to do so. If you haven’t already read Sara Gruen’s Water For Elephants, it’s certainly worth picking up. I’m generally not a speedy reader, but I couldn’t put this one down. I started the book [...]

Run – 0.6 hours – 11/26/2007

This was the first double I’ve done in a while. Not really much of a double with slow and short for both sessions, but it felt good for a recovery effort. Icy roads tonight kept me on the gravel canal path. I may have to dig out my spikes for tomorrow’s morning [...]

Run – 2.3 hours – 11/25/2007

Slow, but probably the best I’ve felt in a while. I still had a few knife jabs in the hip, but overall an encouraging run. I made it the full 17 miles without any backtracking – one big loop. It was sort of a fun challenge.

I added arch supports to my shoes today. I’m not sure if it’s the extra support or a few days away from my desk at work, but the si pain was better today than it has been
