#janathon – Day 7 – a SLOW REST day!


OK, So I admit it.  I overdid it this weekend.  Apparently following a fast (compared to my recent running) 6 mile run with a fast short run wears the legs out. If it wasn’t Janathon, I would take today completely

Treadmill Speed Work (I’m too dumb for the Kinect.)


Every now and then, something happens that opens my eyes.  Yesterday’s recurring theme was speed-work.  Half-athoner mentioned it in a blog posting I read and responded too.  My friend Jeremy (he doesn’t have a blog) and I talked about it

Peanut… Peanut butter! Blossoms!


Ok, Seriously.  I think the person that invented Peanut Blossoms was attempting to figure out how to give people the same warm feeling inside as THAT activity (if you know what I mean.)   I totally think they came as close

Productive Weekend!


Not a bad weekend, especially running-wise, although it was all treadmill based running. Friday evening I hoped on the treadmill and turned my Battlestar Gallactica on.. Well, it seems it was a season premiere – so it was not the usual 35 minutes in

On a Roll with Honor Roll


Last night, I was really torn on whether to run/yoga or take a rest day.  This had actually been on my mind through out the day.  I WANTED to run and then do yoga, but was very aware that my

Still able to walk down stairs!


It sounds like such a simple thing! Yesterday, I could feel my plantar faciitis bothering me still, but the pain was much, much lower than the previous two.  This of course meant I was game to try running again.  I

Posting from a tablet about a to-sore-to-run rest day


I will admit that I had thought I was being careful, but did have my doubts that I was.  Even while limiting myself to 2 1/2 miles, I have had consistently sore muscles.  Already getting close to an  eight minute

The belt on the treadmill goes round and round.


The first thing I want to say is thank you to all those who have served in the armed forces of the United States of America.  Without your sacrifices, your risking of your life/limbs/sanity and missing countless family events that
