Biked 17.2 miles today. That means that since I got my computer I have biked 1009 miles or so. I had a cookie to celebrate.
Also, by biking I managed to avoid running into any landscape features.
7 miles easy today. All kinds of windy out, but no big deal. Of course, I run easy or bike everyday so far, so this shouldn’t really be a surprise…
But, for the amusing anecdote of the day, I had an ‘incident’ on my run today.
So, I’m running through my neighborhood, ending my run, when I [...]
I mean it takes about a year to plan a wedding, right? So this way we can have another wedding to go to next year! We’ll be limited in our location, of course, but I think people will make the trip. You’ll have to take my last name, or my name won’t make any sense [...]
Ah yes, repeats. 200s, 400s, 800s, you name it and we repeated it in college (almost). Well today was a straightforward one, straight out of JDaniel’s “bible”.
1 mile warmup, 6×400m @ R pace, with 400m jog between each, 1 mile cooldown. Total: 5 miles
R pace right now is “77 seconds”. Before my miserable week last [...]
Wait, Ben’s not alone in his marraige planning efforts? Awesome. When is it happening Pike? As for training, you’ve got the perfect amount of time for some killer training. Just be consistent and you will really blow one out of the water.
At this point I am going on training hiatus for the summer. I [...]
They aren’t apocalyptic like they were Saturday, but still enough to keep me inside on what would otherwise have been a glorious spring day.
So, 1 hour on the bike, 24 miles. Then I lifted. Strange thing about lifting: even though I’ve been doing it pretty regularly for a while now, I’m pretty sure I’m getting [...]
That is what we all need.
Pike is sharing his runs with the rest of us to achieve accountability. In my opinion, that is one of the reason that we all joined this blog. And now we are slacking…
Not me anymore.
Last week I totaled five miles. One workout that included a tweaked calf muscle on Wednesday [...]
Legs and lungs.
Sorry I didn’t post yesterday. I biked 18 miles then left straightaway for Ann Arbor to visit Anna and Shean and go to the Pistons’ games today (oh sadness. Damn you LeBron)
Today I got back to my house at like 10:30 or so. Didn’t get to run until around 11:15 or 11:30. But [...]
So, after spending most of my day frolicking ‘in the field’ catching birds and taking their blood, I went home to run. 6.25 or so easy miles, mostly on roads, some in the park. 41 minutes or so, so pretty close to the pace I hope to do the half marathon in (though I’d prefer [...]
Easy 7 miles inside today. Wanted to go out, but didn’t get back until late so I stayed on the treadmill. Did Abs too, I should do that more often. I’m a bit on the weak side.
For excitement, during my wine tasting class today I was talking to some nutrition majors and it turns out [...]
