It’s no longer ‘can I run a mile?’ It’s ‘I’m going to run a mile, let me see how fast I can do it’. Two and a half years ago, I could barely get down the street before gasping for breath. Now I’m sprinting – SPRINTING! – to the end. For those keeping track, it [...]
I’m not phoning it in before New Year’s Eve. The very distracting bit is streaming internet radio – I listen to 97.5 “The Fanatic” while I work. My joy of the day: I had to go to the post office and I decided the fastest way there was to run. And I did, in boots. [...]
These are the summers of my childhood. The weather is ridiculously nice. It was ‘open the window’ type of weather. It was run outside weather. And I did. In fairness, Lisa had to put a foot in my backside because up until last night I’ve been extremely lax about training. I hit the two mile [...]
In an attempt to shake myself from the doldrums that was my routine, we started using Wii Fit. I forgot that it was 1) fun and 2) had actual workout routines. Nothing major or strenuous (or maybe I have to unlock that) but there are several strength exercises and yoga positions. I’m actually looking forward [...]
It looks we’re all in. The seller agreed to terms. I learned something about this fellow – he’s the president of a main line real estate company. God help whoever deals with him; five minutes with the neighbors of the property + five minutes of reading his emails says all I need to know about [...]
Forgive the rambling post. Especially the stuff about cats. No one likes blogs about cats, including me. They are cats, damn it, not engineers. That being said, here we go: 1. The cat peeing on stuff, I’ve determined, has little to do with Nora and a lot to do with me. It seems that every [...]
I can do a mile in my sleep, first thing in the morning. Good thing too, because I’m almost always half asleep when I’m doing it. Here’s the next projected run: I have two different 2.0 mile runs plotted, but one is on a route I haven’t taken. I could end up hating the route [...]
I can steadily handle the mile now. At this point I’m pretty happy with my form and breathing, and either the shoe is finally losing that high arch support or my foot is toughening up, I don’t know. My proposed run now looks like this: Ascent and descent stay the same, but I’m adding a [...]
I posted this entry a month ago regarding the purchase of running shoes. Unlike most things, I was determined to not simply sit back and waste that purchase. I’m happy to report I’m running four times a week and I can run a full mile. Unlike DE, this isn’t a flat track. There’s an 85 [...]
