Another Day; another run.

FR and I got the marriage license today. We had a very nice dinner with friends tonight. My brother should be arriving shortly. And tomorrow at 12:15 we have the ceremony.

See no panic.

It's been 54 weeks since my last post (confession?). Ran 8+ miles today. It made me feel so good I think I'll run again tomorrow.

We bought a new Wii game today. Wall*e. Fun so far.

Tomorrow is a study day after I run. I'm taking an Estate Planning course. Very interesting stuff. Point of information for today:

After months of training I completed my Marathon with flying colors. Now I'm getting back into stained glass. I cut out all the pieces for a new project. A little more grinding and it will be ready for the lead and finish. I'm going to try a new product for holding it all together. We'll see how it goes.

Well it's been a while. I've run 2 halves and am in the tapering period for my first full Marathon. FR and I are traveling to San Diego for the Rock-N-Roll Marathon in June. 20 miles is my longest run and my coaches tell me I'm good to go. So we'll see what we shall see ( Read more... )

I told him that if I have a solid 18 miler (I've never run more than 14 miles at a stretch) under my belt by 4/20 and am feeling ( Read more... )

Did my 4th half in 6 weeks. Did I mention I'm tired? I'm not planning on running any more halves until April 22, La Jolla Half. Yesterday's race was a trail run with a 1400' elevation climb in the first 5 miles and then up and down for another 500' and then downhill back into Avalon. My time was nothing to write home about but I didn't have big ( Read more... )

One of my Goals this year was to set a new personal record of 2:11 which was 2 minutes and 25 seconds better than my previous best. Well today I ran the Carlsbad half marathon and shattered my PR. I ran a 2:10:43 according to my watch (still waiting for the official time). My running partner was trying to get me to slow down so I won't set such ( Read more... )
