Online Running Logs
Like most runners, I obsessively track my mileage. For a while now I have been using Runningahead, and I love it. I’d recommend it to anyone. The message boards are hilarious and informative and the interface is easy. I’ve played around some with dailymile, and have an account there which I am trying to update…

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…

Training Totals for 3.21.10
RECAP: The Good –Beautiful weekend here in the nation’s capital. I did a twelve mile long run this Saturday in under two hours. I felt strong throughout and think that I’ll probably be using cliff shot blocks as my on the run nutrition from here on out. The Bad – While my running was strong…

Training Totals 3.7.2010
RECAP: A busy, busy week with work, packing and moving most of what I own to NY. (E is living in NY, and I living in D.C. for the next six months. Since NY will be our permanent home, most of our furniture is now up there with her). I was able to get my…

Training Totals for 2.21.10
RECAP: The last week of catch up for these totals. This was my second week of twenty miles and damn it felt good to be running that much, and (because I am in NY for the month) running on the familiar turf of Prospect Park. When I first started running many years ago now, I…
