Today's the Day I Lose!: May 2015
http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Thursday, May 28, 2015. When I started running with my first learn to run program 3 years ago, I was introduced to the walk/run interval method. In running circles, it’s often referred to as the Jeff Galloway method. There are many reasons to use it, including conservation of resources, quicker recovery and improving overall time. For me, it was a great way to start; I couldn’t run more than a minute at a time in the beginning anyway, so it allowed me to build up a base. Going for...

Today's the Day I Lose!: June 2015
http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Tuesday, June 30, 2015. But the main reason is that I’m so very disappointed in my time. This was my slowest 5k yet. It seems that the more I train and the more I run, the slower I get. I have lots of excuses – lack of sleep, busy all morning volunteering before the race, poor breakfast choice, it was hot…. but really, they just come down to excuses. My focus now is to get over myself, and just keep running. Even if I'm slow, I'm still moving. Sunday, June 14, 2015. 5 Learn To Run...

http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Monday, July 27, 2015. Since I run with minimal gear - just a watch, some tunes and water on a long run, I worry about not having any ID on me. If anything were to ever happen, I don't even have a phone that someone could scroll through a list of contacts and find the number for "home" or "mom". So I was very happy to come across the Road ID. Website. This isn't a sponsored post, I ordered their product and am very pleased with it! If you run alone, please make sure to be safe and...

Today's the Day I Lose!: Poor man's GPS
http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2015/07/poor-man-gps.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Saturday, July 18, 2015. My usual approach is to plan my route before I leave, using Map My Run. The problem I have now is that in order to keep increasing my mileage in a fairly small city, I need to add more tuns and side streets. By the time I've run over an hour don't have the mental skills left to keep track of when and where in supposed to turn. So today I tried a new approach. Hilary penned the names of key streets on my arm with a Sharpie. And it worked like a charm!

Today's the Day I Lose!: December 2014
http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Wednesday, December 31, 2014. 2014 marks my second year as a runner. I managed to run 184 km this year, which is less then I did in 2013. My biggest running month was May with a whopping 55 miles. No surprise there, I was deep into training for my first 10k. I’m proud to say that I ran my first 10k. Overall I ran 8 races this year, including 3 "virtual" 5ks. My favorite race this year was the Runway Run. Overall 2014 has been a good running year but I hope that 2015 is even better!

Today's the Day I Lose!: Standing
http://todaysthedayilose.blogspot.com/2015/07/standing.html
Today's the Day I Lose! Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Stand in the place where you live. Wonder why you haven't before. Now stand in the place where you work. Think about the place where you live. Wonder why you haven't before. REM “Stand”. But only when I sit down. This has obviously become a problem at work, but one that I have been able to solve with some improvisation! It might be unconventional, but it’s a lot cheaper than the real standing desks. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Today's The Day I Cook.
