Tuesday Jan 29 |
| road running 16:37 [2]1.9 mi (8:44 / mi) | |
| |
| Shins still a little tender. Don't think I made things worse.... |
Sunday Jan 27 |
| Note | |
| |
| Took an hour and a half walk, since running seemed most likely to just aggravate my shins. Climbed two "mountains", saw a barred owl, got mentally prepared for the Patriots game.
On to New Orleans..... |
Friday Jan 25 |
| trail running 31:48 [3]3.5 mi (9:05 / mi) | |
| |
| Up to the power line and back, some bare ground, some ice. The usual variety of aches, plus shin splints (which haven't bothered me for years). Wonder what's next.... |
Wednesday Jan 23 |
| road running 1:11:18 [3]8.6 mi (8:17 / mi) | |
| |
| Somewhat hilly back roads in Conway (Whately Rd., Roaring Brook, Rt. 116). Energy levels not good, not terrible.
Seemed like I had the place to myself -- only saw about 10 cars, and most of them in the last mile on Rt. 116. It's one of the benefits of living in an area that missed the technology/building boom of the 90s (the downside, of course, is that there aren't many high-paying jobs...). |
Tuesday Jan 22 |
| Note | |
| |
| Jury duty all day. Civil case, not criminal, and a lousy one at that, should have never gone to trial. A waste of everyone's time.
Third week in a row I've had a valid excuse to escape Phil's track workout! |
Monday Jan 21 |
| road running 35:14 [3]4.3 mi (8:10 / mi) | |
| |
| Old Sunland/Taylor Hill loop in Montague, starting from the W end of Fosters. Actually didn't feel too bad. |
Sunday Jan 20 |
| road running 1:20:29 [3]9.3 mi (8:39 / mi) | |
| |
| "Fun run" in Conway and Williamsburg. Snow covered and somewhat slippery. Had to take a break before the last steep hill, and even then only barely managed to run it.
Still celebrating Patriots win in the snowstorm... |
Saturday Jan 19 |
| part trail, part road 36:23 [3]4.2 mi (8:39 / mi) | |

| |
Thursday Jan 17 |
| part trail, part road 31:02 [3]3.4 mi (9:07 / mi) | |
| |
| Going to try to run more often but shorter/easier for a while, see if that works better.... |
Wednesday Jan 16 |
| road running 17:08 [2]1.9 mi (9:00 / mi) | |
| |
| Sore still from Sunday, so very gently. |
Sunday Jan 13 |
| road running 1:34:35 [3]11.2 mi (8:26 / mi) | |
| |
| Included the Amherst 10 mile course in 84:25. End of a small slush storm, so running was a bit sloppy, but not bad. First day of running after 3 days of pure misery going through caffeine withdrawal. Lots of aches. |
Wednesday Jan 9 |
| road running 1:05:35 [3]8.4 mi (7:48 / mi) | |
| |
| Around Sugarloafs. Decent effort |
Tuesday Jan 8 |
| track 30:33 [3]4.0 mi (7:38 / mi) | |
| |
| At the track, gently, to see if I could stress the body just a little. 4 miles at varying paces, nothing very fast. Still felt like hard work. Nevertheless, better than if I had gone early when Phil and Sidney were expecting me. Then I would have been really trashed. Fortunately I had an appointment as an excuse....
|
Sunday Jan 6 |
| trail running 1:10:40 [3]8.0 mi (8:49 / mi) | |
| |
| With Phil and Don Grant. A variety of surfaces/speeds, including maybe 10 minutes bushwhacking trying to find a golf course. You would think that such a big control point would be easy to find, but the woods were terrible and we had no map, only a vague knowledge that the course was someplace "over there". Eventually dropped down on the 5th tee, just like we knew what we were doing.
Snow coming tonight. :-( |
Friday Jan 4 |
| trail running 30:32 [3]3.5 mi (8:43 / mi) | |
| |
| Usual route when I want to do the minimum, up to the power line crossing and back. Nice that there is still bare ground. |
Wednesday Jan 2 |
| trail running 31:14 [3]3.5 mi (8:55 / mi) | |
