Ran 6.6 miles yesterday. I decided to run from my hotel towards downtown San Diego. I found a sidewalk that took me right by the waterfront. It was very flat and made the return to running much easier. I am so glad I could run that far. I thought my spring break bender week of drinking and 2nd hand smoke would just destroy my running. I still think the break was a step back in my training, but I...
Finally made it back to the states from my spring break. Unfortunately, Alaska airlines’ system hit the fan and a lot of flights got cancelled. I am currently stuck in San Diego for a few days. I do have some running gear, so I will try to get out on a run tomorrow. I was looking forward to getting home, but shit happens and I just have to keep moving forward.
Taking some time off
Going to Cabo with some friends for the week. Found out the resort I’m staying at has a gym, and I’m sure I can sneak away from my friends for 30-60 mins to get a workout done. It will be a break from the 30-40 mile weeks, but I’ll still be active.
It takes a special kind of person to get me hate the world.
Missed my run for the day, no opportunity for a long run for over a week, maybe two. I’ll pay for this come race day. Sure it’s 2 1/2 months away, but a 50k is not something to mess with.

Lost a lot of time to pack, shuttle for the...

Focused all that rage on the run and managed to run much faster than I had expected;

16.5 miles on a Friday night. Things started a little slow, but I finally got into the groove 4 miles into the run. I started feeling fatigue around mile 11, but after ingesting a Gu packet, I felt a boost and continued my run. Finished the run with a 10:22 pace. A much better pace from last week where things went down hill fast with 4 miles to go. A little tired, but besides some very painful...

15 Miler
15+ miles is out of the way. Legs felt stiff, but strong. Felt good for most of the run. The last 3-4 miles was rough going, but I got home in one piece. Another run tomorrow morning and then maybe in the evening. I may just break 40 miles this week.
