The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: July 2010
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Wednesday, July 7, 2010. Sidney 5k - July 1, 2010. I didn't make the decision to race in this local 5k race until the day before, and as we all know, 5k is not really my distance. However, I have been feeling great in the past couple weeks with my running, and I thought I would use this race to gauge where I was at with my speed. Took off to the front, and I positioned myself in the second grouping. By about 0.5k, Kevin Searle. As we rounded the final 500m, I kicked it in...

Running Callendar: April 2013
http://runningcallendar.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Run For Water 10K. Thursday, April 18, 2013. 2013 Update - Pre Sun Run. It's hard to believe my last post was almost a year ago! Running has been going well: no major setbacks, lots of decent training, and a few personal bests along the way. The first 4 months of each year are always busy with the Island Race Series. And the TC10K. This year I decided to add a race that I've never done before: the Sun Run. Last fall I read a book called Running With The Buffaloes. Each week follows a basic format of 4 ha...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: Gunner Shaw 10k - Nov. 27, 2010
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2010/12/gunner-shaw-10k-nov-27-2010.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Monday, December 20, 2010. Gunner Shaw 10k - Nov. 27, 2010. After the Juan de. Trail in late August, I intentionally. Decided to continue training, but with reduced mileage. The goal was to give my body a break from some of the longer stuff, but at the same time, stay in shape so I would be ready to perform well at some of the upcoming shorter distance events. I decided to pass on other events in the fall like the Shawnigan. 1/2 and the Jericho XC. Although I was frustrat...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: July 2012
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Wednesday, July 25, 2012. I was encouraged at the start of 2012 and had some big hopes that a fresh year would wake me up into a new found motivation pattern. Again, this never happened. Life became difficult with some more personal issues, and I basically used running as a stress-relief and a form of escape from some of the other crap in my life. I mention these past two things for a reason. These were two pretty big motivating factors for me. I am finally happy ...Last ...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: May 2010
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Monday, May 31, 2010. Back at 'er - May 31, 2010. So you know something is up when I don't do a blog post for so long, Typically, I write a blog posting when I am really emotionally up. The back injury that I had never really seemed to go away. The past couple of months were filled with continuous waves of hope, then depression. 1/2 Marathon did hurt it more, and is likely the reason why this injury lingered on for so long. Now, my back is about 95%. It basically just...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: Training Update - Aug. 3, 2010
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2010/08/training-update-aug-3-2010.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Training Update - Aug. 3, 2010. Things have been going pretty well on the training front. I managed to keep up running while on family vacation, and at the same time, get in a couple of longer runs. Since returning to Victoria, I was back on form in the TNW. Speed sessions, which is a good sign. For my long runs, I did Gowland. Tod to Glen Lake (28k) three weekends ago. The next weekend I had the opportunity to do a portion of the JdF. Tomorrow...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: June 2010
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Friday, June 25, 2010. Duncan 8k and Training Update - June, 2010. I ran the Duncan 8k about 3 weeks ago and had a great race. The field was very small, but I took it upon myself to see what I could do, post-injury. Early speed sessions indicated that I was pretty much back to normal, but only a true race would be able to confirm these thoughts. I took the lead early, and geared up for the long Lakes Rd. incline. It is about 1k of fairly steep. But my peripheral vision ca...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Comox 1/2 Marathon: March 21, 2010. I was feeling pretty good leading up to race weekend. My sleeps had been great, which was a nice change from the norm. I was still on the edge of fighting off some kind of cold, but I was on the way to recovery for sure, and all it really was was just a minor lingering nighttime cough. I had spend the previous weekend installing laminate floor into. Our first stop was a pee break at Mill Bay, and when I tried to...

The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt: Racing and Training Update 2011
http://trailadventurer.blogspot.com/2011/06/racing-and-training-update-2011.html
The Adventure Runs of Jeff Hunt. Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Racing and Training Update 2011. Well, and so it goes that actually continuing my blog in 2011 didn't really happen. There were just way too many higher priority things in my life that took up the time. Therefore, I will try and provided a brief snapshot of my year thus far. The year started off with me racing in 6 of the Island Series races. My goal in 2011 was to focus more on the mid-distance stuff, and leave the long stuff out for a while.
