Sunday run

6 miles, 57 minutes. 351 miles this year, 683 all time, about the distance from Pittsburgh to Atlanta. 153 in the white asics. hopefully 8 miles tomorrow.

uh oh

3 miles in 29:30. knee hurt. I should ice it. 3 miles on the new blue asics. 345 this year, 677 miles lifetime.

and yes...

6 miles in 53:12 on the new copper asics. 342 miles this year, 674 lifetime, the distance from Bangor, ME to Washington, DC. run felt good.

new shoes finally came!

I've been wearing the white and yellow version of these. Road Runner Sports had a sale, so I got the copper/black and the navy/white versions as well. Looking forward to wearing them in this evening.

uh huh!

7 miles, 67 minutes, on the treadmill. knees hurt at beginning, pain went away after mile 3. 336 miles this year, 668 all time. 147 on the white Asics. 6 miles tomorrow, hoping for 36 by the end of the week.

ugh

2 miles. really sore from yesterday's run. my legs ached once on the treadmill. 6 miles tomorrow, I hope. Maybe 7.

oh yeah

8 easy miles. about 75 minutes. happy? check. 15 miles this week, 327 miles this year, 138 miles on the white Asics, 659 miles all time, slightly more than the distance between Pittsburgh, PA, and Charleston, SC. 4 miles tomorrow. maybe 5.

okay then...

decided to celebrate my last day of law school classes today with some wine. i.e., no run tonight. 7 or 8 miles tomorrow.

score.

7 miles on the treadmill tonight, in 65 minutes. Slower pace, but I got in further than I'd hoped. 319 miles this year, 130 on the white Asics. 3 mile recovery run tomorrow. I've put in 19 miles in three days.

more running

Well, it's been a while since I've posted but I've definitely been putting in the miles. 312 so far this year, plus 332 carried over from last, for a grand total of 644 miles since I started running, slightly further than the distance between New York, NY, and Cincinnati, OH. I got a Garmin 305 that is awesome, and a pair of Asics Gel-Nimbus VIIIs that seem to fit me really well.

Last night I clocked a new pr for the 10K through Mt. Leb, as measured by my Garmin, 49:23. I'm super psyched, and am proud of putting in a time like that less than a year after I quit smoking and started running. I'm signed up for Chicago Marathon in October, and hoping to hit 3:30, maybe a little bit less, but still have quite a bit of time to shave off, as the McMillan guestimator says that I'd be able to run somewhere around 3:51 with my new best 10K time.

Tonight, I hope to get in another 10K, but definitely at a much slower pace. Maybe on the treadmill, but hopefully outside again.
