What if I leave my signature intact?

Illness stops me in my tracks

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:12:00 -0600

So, I have this running addiction. Healthy or not, it is what I do every day. It has been what I have been doing every day for the past 110 days. That whole time I have been well. Today I am sick. Not sick of running, but sick in general. Earl Grey hot tea with honey sick. I am debating wether I run or not today. Why even question it? Well, I am trying for a clean 120 days straight of runs. Not sure yet. If I do later, you wont know about it cause the wife would kill me. if I post something about 120 days straight later in the month, you’ll know what I ended up doing later today.

This is the Legacy Park Loop path that I typically hit. The night was beautiful due to the clear skies and full moon. I don’t know why Twitter isn’t populating this posted content?

Running in 2011

Sat, 31 Dec 2011 15:02:00 -0600

Another year is almost closed out. This year marks the most miles I have ever covered by foot, by sea or by pedal. Prior to this year, the most miles I had covered in a year was around 1992 when I was cycling significant distances. This year marks the first for consistently running. It wasn’t without injury, but I am happy to report nothing serious/major. This past year I was lucky enough to run next to both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, at least 10 different states and all kinds of time zones. I would say I had a break through in September when I stopped drinking for a year and concentrated on running instead. That really amped up my miles. All-in-all, a great year. I am looking forward to running just as hard for 2012 while we still have a planet to run on. As always, my main purpose for running is to be prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse at the end of 2012. See you all next year.

By the Numbers:

Average Monthly Miles: 101.61m
Average Weekly Miles: 23.45m
Average Daily Miles: 3.34m
Best Month: Dec (221.19m)
Longest Run: 13.32m
2011 Total: 1219.40m

Today Makes 70

Thu, 29 Dec 2011 09:51:38 -0600

I didn’t plan or set-out to do this; it just happened. I didn’t say to myself “..I”m going to run at least a 5K every day for 70+days..” I just wanted to run at least 3m a day (little more for the 5K obviously). Today marks the 70th day of doing so. I might have that change that to at least a 10K a day, since I have been trying to run twice a day, typically at 10m+ combined. Here’s to 30 more days.

So far, so good… Really good http://t.co/H0vh3FCH @GetGlue #Warrior

Yes, that is a very large blister on my left foot. Yes, it is rather nasty. Yes, I am showing you all. That being said, know that the other blister which has formed just below this one hurt more, looks worse and yet I continue to run. I think my goal is to run so hard/much I can no longer walk. Needless to say, ouch.
