Hip Redux
OK, I'm not really in New York, but you know what I mean.
Post, people.
Hello Oski, thanks for starting the dailies
Bought a FR 610 yesterday. It is going for $199 (Canadian), with HRM, on amazon.ca. I looked at the 220, the 620, the 920, the Fenix 3, but bought a 610 because of the price.
I don't need it, my Timex Global Trainer works perfectly. Online shopping is too easy
I will run for 70-80 minutes today.
Hi. I have never been to New York, but I have been to the New York-New York hotel in Vegas.
I am "racing" today. Mostly because it is a charity race with medals.
After we are meeting up with Baboon for post-run grub.
So far, the race tents have blown over twice. . Windy.

Goddamn grocery store is packed like a mofo right now.

No rain then so good?
Sunny and no rain!
Heading out to my parent's house, so rest day today. Hopefully today is an uneventful day in the neighborhood.
Oski, watch out for inflatable arches! I did a race where there were gale force finds and the start got delayed a little because the start/finish line blew over.
Today is our 28th anniversary, so dinner out tonight. I had a massage yesterday, need to take it for a test run to see if it helped. I need a quick grocery store trip, I think I'll combine the two. Currently a little sunny, 60.
Run to live; live to run
4.1. Now to what I shall call yard yoga. (Bend squat plant dig hoe etc)

As part of the 2024 London Marathon, I am fundraising for VICTA, a charity that helps blind and visually impaired children. My mentor while in law school, Jim K (a blind attorney), has been a huge inspiration and an example of courage and perseverance. Please consider donating.

I took a trip down memory lane this morning in my running log and it dawned on me that it is totally incomplete. I only have entered in it what I have been running since December 2012 (when we came to RA) but nothing for the two years prior.
I think over the next week or two I am going to enter my other runs just so I can get a complete picture of my running exploits. Mostly because I am finding that I forget stuff the longer time goes on but also because those years were important in my development.
Ironically I did no speed work back then, I just basically ran slow, medium or fast. I had no Garmin either so it will be interesting to see the average pace of some of those runs once they are entered.
I think it is going to be pretty cool, I am excited.

Good morning everyone!
It is a chilly but sunny day today, and it is Saturday so that is awesome!!!
Rocky and I got up this morning at 3 AM, we hit the roads around 3:35 in 43 degrees with clear skies. We ran 6.3 miles, and surprisingly felt good. No dogs on this route, I think I might be using this route more often... even if it does have quite a few hills at the end.
A bit tired after the run this morning, but a great workout at the gym nonetheless.

I wish I had kept a log for the first 10 years. That would've been nice to see (mileage and stuff).
