Good Base Don’t Go Nowhere

I had a bad running injury a couple of months ago. It happened while I was bowling. Speed bowling.
I figured I’d be out 5 days tops. 2 months later I’m just now running again. I was clicking along with some decent mileage when I got hurt too.
I’m back now though. And it turns out [...]

Fuck you snow.

Man. DC is a tough place to run sometimes. Like last week. When we got 40 inches of snow. It wasn’t very safe to walk around let alone run. So needless to say I missed a solid week + of running. I think I’m going to be a little more aggressive during my LA trips [...]

Don’t Jinx Me

An update has been long overdue. I think it’s because I didn’t want to be jinxed. It seems like every time I get something going I post on here then get derailed. (fingers crossed)
A big perk in my training occurred about two months ago when I was finally able to start running to and from [...]

Dawdles in the Afternoon

I have been running. A bit. Today as I ran by a school someone screamed and shouted “Nasty” while pointing at my bearded shirtless frame bouncing alongside the afternoon traffic. Making a kid wince made my day.
My legs feel great right now.

Blisters and Muscles

I don’t know what’s worse: a humongous blister on the ball of your foot or a possibly torn calf muscle. I’m hoping it’s not torn. I only know that it is in serious pain. Walking is an issue. It is however not getting worse and seems to be getting better, even with me running on [...]

NYE

I decided I needed to sneak one more run in for 2008 to bump up my yearly mileage by…4 miles. Went out for a nice run that went better than expected. My calves are feeling it today though. After a quick jaunt I proceeded to go party to bring in the new year. Well I [...]

All Systems Go

First off, I am listening to a music blog right now…and who comes up but Beach House starring our very own Alex Scally. It’s damn good and you can find it at gorilla vs. bear.
Tonight was pretty damn good. Got in a little less then 5 I think. I seemed to be cruising right along [...]

Summer Weekends

It was a nice relaxing weekend filled with sleeping in, longer (relatively) slow runs, big fruit smoothies and massages with softballs. Both of my runs were around midday. It’s not blazing hot here but I think the heat does slow me down. Yesterday was a good training day. Put in a solid 5.5 with some [...]

College…the good old days.

You know what I really miss? The icebath. It is such a pain to put an icebath together. I should just get a five gallon bucket. Put in 4 miles today. Somewhere around 30 minutes. I’m also in that base 30 mile a week stage. I think my plan of attack is to progress very [...]

Aqua Jogging Makes the World Go Round

Again to Carthage. I think that’s what they call it. Getting back into shape. Currently, I believe in my greatest moment, I might be a shadow of my former self. If only my former self had been just a litte bit faster.Oh well.
Currently in my very light base phase I put in about 4.5 today. [...]
