    Trey: I guess I'll have to third the slow start of the year.


     

    Ha ha. I love to tell people, when they ask how the running is going, that I started the year off tapering.

        rururunner: welcome. How did you do last year? Stayed near the bunny?

         

         

         

        Last year went well.  No injuries and I ended up just shy of 1500 miles.  My goal was actually 2009 km in 2009.  I find the bunny very motivating!

          One day at a time

            6.2 miles on the 19-lap-to-a-mile track at the Y for me today.  Sometimes I think, "Just SHOOT me!!"  Oh, well, better than not running at all.  I guess.


            I'm on the right

               Ouch.  That sounds worse than a treadmill....and I can't stand those.  +1 to still better than not running.

                Well its a good week and I have been enjoying running a long the Waterfront in Seattle.  Warm weather is nice!  I ran with my grad student yesterday and it is a good way to bond and talk about the project.  Still did not see SRLopez.

                          I just finished a killer work out -  ate 6 little Cinnabons and drank 16 oz of milk in about 3 minutes. I'm ready to run 50 miler now with all the sugar.

                                Easy 1.5 on the treadmill (it's snowing here!). Still no good, the leg wasn't too bad but the back is still gigging me. I've given up on First Light and Mercedes (along with the Alabama 3N3). I'm still hoping I don't lose too much fitness so I can get back up to speed quickly and still make some spring races, so I did 30 tedious minutes on the elliptical.
