    Good morning!

     

    I ran 3.6 miles in the dark.  It was very foggy with a light mist, but mid 50s made it all good.

     

    Have a great day folks!

      'Morning!  Company holiday but I am working anyway.  BOOOO! lame.  I don't plan on staying here past 2:00 though.

       

      2200 yard swim before work, and definitely feeling all the skiing.  JOG this afternoon.

        Payroll stuff?

         

        I'm scheduled for 4 with 4 X 100m strides.  Should be doable - warm and rain.

        This whole bit of having someone else set your schedule is, um, interesting.

        She gave me kudos for my mile yesterday - made me all squishy inside.

        Lordy,  I hope there are tapes.

          I bet.

           

          Don't know if I'll run today. Foot could use a rest, I guess. But it's very nice out and might not be tomorrow... I'll see.

            Did you pick up a scosche rhythm?

              All Mondays should be like this - no work, no running. No incentive to get dressed, or shower. If I don't have to leave the house, could be lounge pants all day.

                I am pretty much in the same boat.

                 

                I would rather wait another day before taking this stupid thing out for a test drive, but, walking at work was rough on it last week (not to mention I'm petrified of a setback). I probably should run today then sit on my ass and rest it for 18 hours, versus running tomorrow then having to work... We'll see.

                    WorkInProgress, sorry to hear about your coworker.  Most of the time I go out for New Year's, I scared of driving back with all the drunken people driving all over.  So sad.

                    From the Internet.

                      Winter running problems: I really should take a day off, but it's going to be in the 40s today. I haven't had a complete day off since December 16 so I'm going to be smart, but I DON'T LIKE IT.

                          I didn't. Read a few reviews, and it seems it's not so accurate in cold weather.

                          I read forums on the Garmin strap, and realized it might be static electricity as I don't put my running clothes in the dryer, therefore no Bounce or Fleecy, and in the winter the air is dryer.

                          I cleaned the rubber contacts of the strap with soap, cleaned the electrical contacts between the device and the strap with contact cleaner, wet the strap real good before I left running, and rubbed the inside of my shirt with a sheet of Bounce a minute before my run. The strap worked flawlessly.

                            I ran. 17 km,  or 10.6 miles or so.

                                I ran for 14 minutes. 

                                 

                                I felt a slight pop in my right calf at a half mile. I stopped and stretched it before continuing, then stopped and stretched it again at a mile. I stretched it once more when I was done. Oddly enough, I felt the same pop during my first run post-marathon but ran through it. I believe that is where the problems with my heel and arch began, so hopefully by stretching it out this time, I'll avoid the same fate.

                                 

                                Anyway, I was only going to run for a mile, but damn it was nice to be out there!  I compromised and ran some crazy route that ended up giving me 1.58 miles. I didn't want to push my luck so I was scared to run a single step further. lol
