Big 5k for me tomorrow morning. I was hoping for this to be the race where I broke the 20:00 mark (current PR is 20:17) but in the end I don't think it's going to happen. I just don't feel that hot lately. Secondary goal: come in 69th like I did 2 years ago

3.5 miles today. Easy 8:40 pace with the dog.
Then 40 minutes on the rollers.
Injuries gone and regular training means I've shaved off the five pounds or so I picked up over the winter. Weight should drop into the 160s very soon (until I wreck that on vacation in a week  ).

Just got back from Virginia Beach a little bit ago. I ran the half in 1:41:01, 7:43 pace. I wanted to try to go below 1:40:00, but that will have to wait. Going to take a few days off and decide if I am going to train for another half or go for a full.

learned a valuable lesson today. Today was Accidental Experiments in Barefoot Running day!
Forgot my running shoes on lunch run day. Ran 2.x miles in puma speedcats driving shoes. Coulda gone farther, but took a page from the vibram thing where they said "don't go very far!" and cut it short. An hour later, i'm REALLY glad that's all i did. ouuuuuch.
In random 5k news, there's a 5k coming up here in WA i wound up registering for 'cause work decided the first 20 people who registered would get it expensed back to them. I'm pretty psyched. I'd have run it anyhow, but now I get to do it for free!

Oh man, I tried to do that when i went to Maui... I really did. I just couldnt' bring myself to run each morning when i could just sit on the lanai! lol
...I can't think of a better place to go for a jog though. Envious.

I fucking hate running but looking to do distance running mon/wed/fri with just wind sprint pyramids on Tue/Thr. Since I haven't been doing regular PT for a few years, probably gonna start with 1 mile for the distance running, increase it another mile every 2 or 3 months until I get to 5.
That's what I did starting about 4-5 months ago.. You could probably start at 2 miles actually, then work up from there. In December I was running like a 9:30 min/mile pace and felt like death at the end of 2-3 miles.
I blew through that 5K this last weekend like I was doing a PFT 10 years ago  .. Ive always been a poor runner too. I fucking hate running. I was at foot locker and they had a shirt that said, "Running sucks" on it. I wanna get that shirt lol.
The longest distances Ive been running on my own now are about 6 miles. Think Im gonna move up to 8 miles now. I want to eventually do a half-marathon.
