Evanflein has s stunning Sunday 19.1 and reminds us of some of the challenges faced in the extreme North.

I requested a handful of reports where I need to go through each line and lay eyes on each item associated with that line number. 15 pages with 62 lines each. Our company hosted the Home Builder's Association's annual membership board meeting. Some of our staff had been requested to work the event. Myself included. Between surges, I had my nose in the numbers. I used the "Idiot" word a lot. The boss who left 6ish months ago gave me his card, said he missed me and asked me to call him.

If I start burning out, I'll pass on the daily.

Thanks for the summary, Steve.

I have been away for a few days - getting ready for a marathon training session.  I'll run the Hartford marathon on Saturday as a long run.  My goal marathon is Chickamauga in early November.  We'll see how Saturday goes.  Last Sunday, I went for 20 on the airline trail.  Felt okay - nothing special.  Probably because it was on tired legs.  Saturday was a 7 miler at 8:00 pace.

Yesterday - no running.  Just spinnerooni (2x) and a fizzy lifting session.  The schedule calls for an 8 mile easy run today.  Think I'll use the cardio cinema treadmill - hope it's a good movie today.

Hang in there everyone - cooler temps are on the horizon...

Morning, all.

3.1 miles in a little fog.  Damp, but pleasant.  managed to be under 10 m/m pace, which is improvement for me these days.

After my early morning yesterday, I went wild and left 15 minutes early.  Forgot about the little detail that 2/3 of the people in Mass were heading home after the long weekend.   Ended up getting home 15 minutes later than normal.  Bleh.

Ready for cooler weather, just maybe not snow QUITE yet.

KSA--imagine DD is quite a bit sorer today.  Hope recovery proceeds smoothly.

2nd day of no running for me but surprisingly not sore from Sunday's trail race. Either the DOMS haven't set in yet, or I could have run faster. 
Board meeting tonight. 
Happy Birthday Liz!!!  I was lucky that I got to spend this time last year at Liz's place and celebrate her birthday with her.

KSA - Wow!  So happy your daughter wasn't hurt more seriously.  And yeah - what's with this "jogging" thing??

Steve - You do a grand job.  Thanks.

1 hr of core/ST with PT exercises.

PT yesterday whereat my therapist did a lot of stretching and pulling on my right hip to try and loosen things up.  Used a seat belt wrapped around my tight to his waist, then moved my leg to different positions.  He must've done this about at least 10 min.  Me thinks his arms and hips might be a bit sore today.  I, however, seem to have a little less irritation in The Spot.  Also got a new stretch that I'm supposed to do 5 x 1 min two times a day.

My PT also suggested I try to get some exercises on an elliptical since when I use it at PT it doesn't bother me.  So I checked out Planet Fitness yesterday.  They have a butt-load of ellipticals, so I think I'm going to join until I can start running again.  It'll at least let me work on getting my stamina back up and getting back into shape.

It kinda feels like the walls are caving in on  me here at work, but say-lah-vee, right?

That's about it.  Enjoy ~~

Hi all,

Just checking in to post this morning's workout before getting back to work 'cause I'm really behind schedule today.

I was wide awake at 2AM, and after losing the battle to get back to sleep, I got up got some work done, and got ready to head out. 10.3 RW miles in 56° temps, starting at 3:45. Yeah, I'm dragging this afternoon.

Have a greta Tuesday.

Jogging - with my RunningBarefoot group attributing jogging to the jarring heel striking typically associated with one-foot-or-the-other being in contact with the ground (like RW’ing but somewhat more lazurely), running is characterized by mid/forefoot landings permitting both feet to be up in the air at some point, even if only slightly at some of our 15m/m and slower paces, it doesn’t matter.  

Car encounters

crossing (with other pedestrians) with the WALK sign at a busy intersection and a woman came around a bus and ran the red light. The driver wasn't going very fast, fortunately.

KSA - scary but me too with a very whewy for the outcome
Fortunately, only happened in stop/walk intersections in the International District so no speed involved or damage done but, since being grazed three times in 2014 by distracted drivers coming around corners while looking at their cell phones, I’ve always stood around on the corners ever since pretending to fiddle with my cell phone, make calls, etc. to wait for the benefit of crossing with someone else, . . . same as I often hold up my own pedesrian progress to provide some protection for the even-more-elderly seeking to cross the street too, . . . or so I thought it was safer to cross with someone else.
Note: ^{though Washington aims for zero bicycle and pedestrian deaths by 2030,}

^{the latest WSDOT report has them doubling from 60 in 2013 to 122 in 2017.}

Mizzly ‘muting - though I thought this morning’s 53^o would be warm enough to cycle over to the secluded lake shore park I’ve come to like for a little run on the grass and sand, by the time I got there, the mizzle’d become rain so I went back.

ps two cat - now world records but, in addition to the Euro citizen record,

third place Chicago went to a Japanese runner's national record 2:05:50.

Home late from school today; parents doing battle on behalf of their little darlings and their drama. Few things (if any) are more irritating to me than kids who come to school with zero interest in their education . Neither child in this scenario could spell C-A-T if you spotted them the c and the t. Yet they have zero social skills and that’s what their moms only care about.

ok, rant over. 3.2 today.

Tailwinds!
