A blog about aspiring to be the best dad, husband, and runner I can be. Monday, August 11, 2008. Now my 2 year old sons favorite line. Daddy, wha happenin?

The Journey
http://distance-runner.blogspot.com/2009/12/rocket-city-marathon-12-december-2009.html
Wednesday, December 16, 2009. Rocket City Marathon 12 December 2009. I arrived in Huntsville on Friday around noon and just kind of hung out until late afternoon. I went over to the expo to get a couple of things and my packet. Bart Yasso was the guest speaker at the carbo dinner that night- what a great guy and speaker. I really enjoyed his speech and am enjoying his book. I ended up with a time of 4:11:11 so I didn’t hit the 3:50 I wanted but those are just numbers. Looking back- this whole trainin...

Monday, April 24, 2006. Recap of week beginning 04-17-06:. The week started off pretty good but ended up with a very busy weekend and no runs. It was a drop back week (of sorts) so I wasn't real worried about getting anything over 10-12 miles in over the weekend, but with the timing of all of the plans for the weekend I didn't get any in. Mon, 04-17: No run. Tues, 04-18: 3 miles. Wed, 04-19: 5 miles. Thurs, 04-20: 5 miles. Fri, 04-21: 6.1 miles (2 mile warm up, 5K race, 1 mile cool down). I shouted back ...

Run With Tom: October 2007
http://runwithtom.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
A blog about aspiring to be the best dad, husband, and runner I can be. Monday, October 29, 2007. Just over 40 miles this week, still on the easy train. Wed: 5 ez massage. Thu: 7 at LR pace with a few mid 6s mixed in. The calf is doing much, much better this week than last, although I think I may have jumped the gun a little with a faster run and a 12 miler. There's not really any pain, just some soreness. I didn't even notice it during the long run, but did feel it a bit on Monday morning. So I've compl...

A blog about aspiring to be the best dad, husband, and runner I can be. Monday, August 18, 2008. I ran a total of 67 miles last week, which is pretty high for me. At. This mileage I start to feel it a little with the aches and pains, so. Im sure Ill get a few weeks into the 70s, but I dont have plans to. Go significant;y higher - just to hang out between 60-75 mpw and build. Some strength in that zone. Tuesday: 9 at a moderate pace with 10 striders. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A blog about aspiring to be the best dad, husband, and runner I can be. Friday, December 21, 2007. But what a difference 24 hours makes! By lunchtime Thursday it felt great, so I got back on the treadmill Thursday night and only felt the slightest bit of tightness. And after a half mile, not even that. Just 3 miles of nice easy pain-free running at 9:30 pace. Best 3 miles I've run in a long time! Now I just need to work on not being so stupid! Tuesday, December 18, 2007. Monday, December 17, 2007. So las...

The Journey: October 2006
http://distance-runner.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 30, 2006. Another good week on the base building and enjoying running. I was surprised at how well my 10 miler went on Sunday. No stops at all- just smooth, easy run. The temptation was there to add a couple more miles because it was feeling so good but I decided to stop with the planned 10 miles and end on a positive note to take in to my next week of running. Mon- 10-23: No run. Tues- 10-24: 3 miles. Wed- 10-25: 5 miles. Thurs- 10-26: 5 miles. Fri- 10-27: rest day. Sat- 10-28: 5 miles.

The Journey: March 2006
http://distance-runner.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 27, 2006. Due to an overall lack of training, I decided I was going to make this a training run or slightly faster depending on how I felt. I decided that my overall goal would be 1:45. We left for Knoxville mid day on Friday and it took forever to get there. Should have been about a 4 hour drive, but with traffic and a slow restaurant, it took just over 6 hours. We found our hotel and headed to dinner and a relaxing night. The race started and we immediately started up a hill. I though...
