5.1 today. Just glad to be running. Lots of nagging foot problems put me on hiatus off and on over the last two years.

3.9 in 39:30

 

[volfanbill]

5 miles of interval training. Found a huge series of trails literally across the street almost. I'm ecstatic.

 

[VOLatile]

30 minutes of stairs this morning. Pretty sure I was still drunk from last night.

Nice job

Nice job

Thanks. I'm not competitive in these races but I'm always happy to come in under 2 hours. First of 4 halfs this season.

That's where I usually land. Nice feeling to get under two hours

 

[VOLatile]

I want to get in under 3 hours.

I want to get in under 3 hours.

I'll trade you my under 3 half time for a fat tire bike.

I just sold mine. Biggest regret of my life, I think.

 

[volfanbill]

I'll sell a sub 2 half for a road bike...

I felt like I was reading an article from The Onion. How exactly do you enforce such a rule?

That's funny. Do they have a safety patrol? What if you are in the possession of scissors?

2.59 in 19:38. First run in a week. Was trying to rest the ankle. Felt pretty good.

 

[volfanbill]

4 miles dead even on the beach. Fun to run at night with just a headlamp trying to avoid high tide spots.

 

[volfanbill]

6.25 miles in 56:27. Ashamed to admit the winds were so cold I had to stop and walk twice to catch my breath.

 

[volfanbill]

8 miles today. Loving the trail system I found last week. Four miles of trails, four miles of pavement. Just over 22 miles for the week.

I don't call it running...I call it SHAKINTHEFAT. 8 marathons, 15 1/2 marathons multiple 10 and 5K's. Have not won one yet!

That's an impressive resume. What are your run times if you don't mind me asking?

 

[VOLatile]

2.3 in 22:00. 7:50 first mile and 10:30 second. Hit a big hill.

Finished my first half marathon yesterday in sevierville. 2:10:41 not as fast as I had hoped but still happy.

Not bad for your first one

That's not a bad time at all, especially for your first. Congrats.
