I Just realized I have been neglecting my speedwork!
Last night was a procrastinating night. I knew my rest-days were over, and I had a 3 mile run on the books. That’s it, only a 3 miler. Well I kept finding reasons to put it off. I spent some…

Another beautiful week begins!!! I can’t speak for everyone out on the interwebs, but for me – it was a great weekend. 4 Miles on Saturday, 3 miles on sunday and my son got back from Bermuda! Saturday: I went…

Last night I hit my bowflex for a nice workout. My thought is that by swapping days of running and lifting, I give my Plantar Fasciitis a chance to heal (in theory), while working on the upper body/core that I…
Running and Rolling
So, my last couple of posts have glossed over any training – while focusing on my fundraiser/giveaway. Rest assured, I have still been working on my training! Last night, I went out for an easy 3ish miles (I accidentally gypped…

#Juneathon Day 11 – A nice (short) run.
The inclusion of the word short in the title above, in no way represents any sort of insult or negative connotation toward short people. For the record, some of my favorite people are short. I believe that a person’s height…

#Juneathon Day 7 – Pending
So, my Plantar Fascia was a bit sore this morning. To be clear, this wasn’t suprising as I was hobbling yesterday – starting an hour or two after my run. I don’t know if it was from the run, or…
