The Lazy Pirate

Today my wife wanted to go for a run with me, so we did a little jogging around Boyds Mill Pond. Also our dog Scooby tagged along. The temperature was around 65 with light winds, it was a great day to be outside and just be alive. I grabbed my Garmin watch to track my run, but it was dead. So I used my iPod and nike+ to track our run. We ran at a crawling 10:20 pace.

I also rode my bike while my wife was watching some chick flick. I have my road bike on a trainer in front of the TV. Now that’s Lazy! Ha ha.

AM. Back to the grind

I ran an easy 4.5 miles at 7:30 pace.

I've got two races coming up next month a 5k & an 8k. The 5k I'm not so concerned with because it's so large, it's hard to get in a good position at the starting line.  But the 8k is a smaller local race. I've won my age group last year. I may have won my age group the year before, I can't remember now. I want to shave my 8k time. The race isn't until March 26th, so i should have plenty of time to work on it. Please give me some guidance!

PM     

Tonight I was under the gun to get my run over with quickly being Valentines Day and all.

1^st mile @ 7:30 pace

1.50 mile @ 6:00 pace

0.75 mile @ 8:00 pace

0.25 mile @ 6:00 pace

I wanted to keep pushing, but my tummy started bubbling. I called it a day. Also on my mind is my Hot wife waiting at home for me to take her out to dinner. Can you blame me for cutting my run short???

AM.

more treadmill running at the Y. I don't think I woke up until I was at 2.75 miles.

Mile 1 @ 7:30 pace

Mile 2 @ 7:30 pace

Mile 3 @ 7:30 pace

Mile 4 @ 7:00 pace

Mile 5 @ 6:30 pace

I think it may be time for me to get some new running shoes. At least once a week my feet are killing me because of my running shoes. I need to do some research to find a good shoe. Does anybody have any preferences?

PM.

I ran around Boyds Mill Pond with my wife and dog. Its nice to have a running family.

I woke up 5 minutes before the alarm clock this morning, feeling robbed of precious time I went back to sleep for another hour and a half.

This afternoon I went to the Y and ran on the treadmill. I ran 8 miles at 7:18 pace.

This afternoon I ran with my wife around our church. Just a nice easy jog outside enjoying the fresh air. After my wife was done, she drove home and I ran home by the moon light. It was nice and relaxing. I’m not sure what I did per mile, but my ipod says that I averaged 8:06

I did a nice little jog outside with the wife. Saving my legs for a long run tomorrow.

AM.

My sister and i ran a 5 mile loop we have marked, then i did some extra running around the her house.

PM.
