Away on vacation

Ah vacation was going to be good for training that was not the case. I ran a mile repeat workout but the rest of the trip was poor for running. I need to stay with my normal routine. When I get off of it running goes to hell. I will have daily updates from here on out.

Mondays run

Skipped the run with the high school boys this morning. I went out to queeny park and ran two loops as planned only it was in the evening and not in the morning.
Each loop is about 4.40 miles
1st loop 31:20
2nd loop 29:01

total run 01:00.21
total milage 8.8
total sleep 9 hours
weekly milage 8.8

This was to erstaset. His post has since been removed.

you are missing the point. Its about the journey not the destination.

Look at how Henry has inspired people. His form will return.

To Thomas,
You hit the point by the nose!!!!Yes it is a Journey-you got to hold on, so tight on the ship otherwise-you will fall-off.

Thanks Thomas,
Henry

Very cool.

No Running

Uh it is so hot in Saint Louis. My running took a dip this week. Between the weather and school my days are all messed up. I have 2 workouts planed this week and a 10 mile race Saturday. It is the Xtreme 10 miler it is a trail run however it starts like a cross country race. Around three miles there is a monster hill (125ft over a half mile) I just want it under 70minutes. This is all just money in the bank.

From there it is up to Michigan for the week. That will be an even bigger week. I expect that to be my second week of doubles. We shall see though.

Need to give props to Henry Rono for getting back to running. He sent me an encouraging e-mail a couple weeks ago after I sent him so encouragement for his own running. He ran 6:06 for a mile tonight. I know he wanted faster but he will get there. Good luck Henry.

New post

I will begin posting again. It is likely just to be my runs and that sort of thing but never the less it is something.
