@RocketEAR99 Thank you so much!! I think you are absolutely correct on my body being more than trained from my years of running to knock this half out pretty easily! I think my body can still easily go that distance from all of the training we put in for
! Way to go on your run!! I’m so glad you are able to get outside and run again! It looked like your weekly treadmill run over winter really helped you maintain for sure!!! Way to push through, even when you wanted to quit. Keep at it!!!!!
@RocketEAR99
After this winter, I’ve learned that I’d pretty much run in any weather!
Did you run down and get an exotic piercing?
Of all the businesses in that little strip mall, the body piercing is the one that shows on the map! You’re not the first person to question me on that
@eeyorepoohfan Glad you were able to complete your 4 miles. 6 weeks is plenty of time for your legs to get ready for that 1/2 marathon, especially for an experienced runner like yourself!
I concur
@rocketear99 great job on your run! Way to stick with it buddy!
The hamster wheel did help this winter, even though it’s not fun.Wow, I’m super behind and there’s no way I can catch up
@eeyorepoohfan @rocketear99 @10dedfish Thanks for all your input! Trying to strike a balance between getting my sprints in but also my longer run each week.Had the first visit with the chiro yesterday, I’m not expecting instant results after one or two sessions, I know it takes time. Yesterday he examined me and took some x-rays. I’m aligned properly where I’m having pain but not so much in my thoracic spine which he said can cause lots of other issues because the nerves are all connected. I’m hopeful he can help, I’m going back today for my first alignment, I’ll keep you posted.
Run update:
I ran Tuesday after work. Since the time change I have been a zombie. I can’t get up to go to work, let alone get up an hour earlier to run beforehand. I usually feel a little tired when I get up early, but this week has been more than that. My eyes are heavy and sore, and I absolutely don’t feel awake, more like I’m dreaming and this isn’t real. Sorry if that’s too deep, it’s the only way I can think to explain it
I’ve been having trouble getting to sleep at night and I woke up at 3am and then 4am Tuesday morning so I decided to run after work instead.It was pleasant, in the 50s I think, sunny, a little windy. Leia and I ran around the neighborhood, which I hate by the way. We’re on a hill so it’s all on an incline which kills my calves and Achilles tendons. Oh and cars were everywhere! We were constantly stopping, some people didn’t even look to see if we were on the sidewalk before reversing out of their driveway. Spotify kept crapping out on me too, it would just keep stopping for no reason – I need my music! But whatever, got it done. 2 min walk/30 minute run.
Total Time: 32:00
Total Distance: 2.75
Total Running Time: 30:00Started out this morning and my body was like, “Ummmm. Thought we were done with these pre-dawn runs. WTFIGMENT???”
My legs were so fatigued. Maybe the 2 bowls of multigrain Cheerios and the 8 Girl Scout cookies wasn’t the best dinner choice last night. Softball/Baseball season is rough, I tell ya. Damn kids. I’ll have to try a different approach next time
2.15 miles
10:34/ mile@missingWDW You are still doing great considering your time off! Sometimes I have dinners like that too
@eeyorepoohfan @nascfan Thanks!
it’s supposedly 80* outside right now, I have no idea, I’m stuck inside without a window, but I plan on running tonight after work
