Training Totals 6.13.2010
RECAP: Well, it was bound to happen eventually, a week of fail. It started off with me having a tough time fitting decent runs into my schedule and it ended with me laying on my couch sick as a dog and for the first time in over 100 days, unable to run. I had run…

Training Totals 6.6.2010
RECAP: Not the world’s best week, people. I came off last week’s marathon excited about how much my running has progressed in the last six months and basically ran right into an injury. Since the marathon, I’ve been having some pain in my left ankle whenever I run, sometimes its pretty bad, sometimes it is…

Training Total 5.30.2010
RECAP: Well, I ran a marathon, everything else about this week was in preparation for that and since I wrote a pretty lengthy recap of the race already, we’ll get right to the numbers. Summary Work out streak: 151 days; (221 to go) Run Streak: 103 Days Average Weight – 182 (same as last week)…

Training Totals 5.23.2010
RECAP: Man, what a week. Who would have thought that running less would cause so many aches and pains and well… mental instability. I’m going nuts over here! NUTS! I am obsessively checking the weather forecast for Burlington (hot, apparently), I’m visualizing the race as I go to sleep and I am freaking out about…

Training Totals: 5.16.2010
RECAP: The taper for my spring marathon has begun, and so far, so good. A Saturday long run of twelve miles is a heck of a lot more reasonable than a 22 miler. It was nice to feel like I could have handled more. Weight stayed constant this week, which is a little bit of…

Training Totals 5.9.2010
RECAP: 48 miles is a lot of running. Its Tuesday and I am still exhausted. But now its taper time and man am I looking forward to it. Saturday’s long run started off great, for the first fifteen miles or so, I felt strong and fast. I Rahm Emanuel, I kept a good pace and…

Training Totals 5.2.2010
RECAP: Not every week can be great. Sometimes, the body just needs a break, and this week was one of those weeks. Even though I decided to cut my long run down from 18 to 15 miles, I still feel ok about this week. My left foot which was giving me a lot of trouble…

Training Totals 4.25.10
RECAP: 41.5 miles. Over six hours on my feet. That, my friends, is a lot of running. The goal for the week was 43 miles, but life got in the way (wedding venues!) and I had to cut the Saturday run really short. Whatever, I’m still proud. This is the most miles I have ever…

Training Totals
RECAP: I think I need to face up to the fact that for right now, as long as I am getting in my scheduled runs, I should really be too upset about not hitting my total workout time goals. Work is busy, I travel every weekend, and really, all that is important to me right…

Training Totals: 5.11.2010
RECAP: I guess it is a good sign if what I am disappointed about in a week is not that I didn’t get my runs in, but that I didn’t feel good on (some) of the runs. I think packing more miles onto my long run week after week has finally caught up with me…
