#Janathon Day 5 – the treadmill
So, running on the treadmill means no cool multi-colored maps, or neat charts showing splits. That’s it… that’s my picture. I used the first tenth of a mile or so to warm up (aka set my music up,) and then…

So my son had an extra practice this week, which meant Gym time!!! I decided to go try one of Baltimore’s other offerings. First off this place was a royal pain in the butt to find. It’s not that the…

#Janathon Day 6 – treadmill run, and a discussion on sleep.
Day 6. Slept a little rough, with some really, really weird dreams. The sort of dreams that you wake up with your heart pounding and your head full of emotion and confusion. The last of these times I woke up,…

Running at Midnight.

Never sore where you think
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…
#Janathon – Cake and Running Re-start.
I suspect that at this point, after being sick and then waiting for my injuries to heal, that 10 days off disqualifies me from claiming to be a Janathon participant. At this point, I am looking forward to Junathon to actually…
