I ran a 50k today. That was cool.
But my small victory is that I also ran a 50k yesterday.
And I managed the elusive "negative split double" (running the second day faster than the first day).
As Ozzy is fond of saying in Black Sabbath songs, "Oh yeah" and "Alright now".

You are amazing! *claps wildly*
actually ran fast on the treadmill the day after running 15 miles outside
daily victories make the next day much more interesting
Consistently Slow
Run until the trail runs out.

The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

I've done lots of 6 miles runs, but none of them have been before work. It was a big deal for me because for years I would just lay in bed and think, "I don't have enough time for a run of more than 5 miles." I set a 30-day goal to get up everyday at or before 5, regardless of the day (running or rest, weekday or weekend), and since then I've logged several 4, 5, and now 6 miles runs. I'm home in time to help with my wife with our 3 boys and still get them to the bus by 7:15.
Oh yeah, on top of that, it was raining this morning!
2 victories today: First, I celebrated 14 days straight of waking up at or before 5 am. Second, a 6-mile run. I've done lots of 6 miles runs, but none of them have been before work.

Congrats. Welcome to the world of the night crawlers.
Loves the outdoors
That is impressive I try to avoid the world until 6:30am
One day I decided I wanted to become a runner, so I did.
an amazing likeness
Dear 2001 Buick,
I saw you the other week with your fresh new hood, new grill and new windshield. I did notice that you've still got that nasty dent from my head in your roof.
Well Mr Buick, yesterday I lightly jogged 3.5 miles of a 4 mile walk. Outdoors. Slowly. Funky gait - probably looking a little of Marty Feldman in YF - but none the less, it was indeed some jogging.
Eat that my Buick friend, eat that.
Acceptable at a dance, invaluable in a shipwreck.

Good job Andy!!!
So bittersweet,This tragedyWon't ask for absolution;This melody,Inside of me,Still searches for solution.A twist of faith,A change of heart Cures my infatuation.A broken heart, Provides the sparkFor my determination.
