Had a great run this morning with Bill, lots to talk about. We were in no big hurry, so we decided to run for fun and not worry about time. Plus, there was a lot of snow on the ground and i did not want to fall and hurt myself again. It sure is nice running with someone because running by yourself gets lonely (Thanks Bill it was fun.) Thanks for reading and have a great day!!

Had a good run this morning with Kory on the t-mill. Except i keep hitting the stop button on the machine and that was very frustrating. This morning was -15 degrees with a windchill of -25 degrees. So where is this global warming they keep talking about. I sure would like some of it now. LOL Have a great day! :-)

I ran ten miles at a 6:40 pace at a 1.0 incline. I think when i run on the t-mill i want to get done fast because i am tired of running in one place so it keep going faster and faster.

Today was a long day. My wife surgery went ok and the stone they took out of her gallblader was big. But my wife was in a lot of pain for about eight hours after the surgery her pain was between 7 -9 out of 10 and they were giving her the good stuff. Then finally around 5:00 PM the medicine started working and she did not have to stay the night. Which she was very happy and wanted to go home. Anyway, i was able to get my six miles.

A.M.: Ran 8 1/2 miles this morning on the t-mill at 58:58 with a 1.5 incline. I could have run outside, but I was scared of falling on the ice. I do have to say that I am amazed on how much more sweating I did this morning. All I did was adjust the incline from 1.0 to 1.5 and it seamed like I was sweating double the amount, crazy.  Anyway, one more four mile run this afternoon.

 

P.M.: Ran four miles outside. :-)

Also, I lost two more pounds, now I weigh 143. Is that a good thing?

I have been trying to change my leg turnover rate to be a little faster and today was a learning lesson. I started out way to fast and paid for it at the end of my run. But good things never come easy. Anyway, not much planned for today. Looking for a job and later tonight my wife and i are going to see a free movie at ISU called TAOS. At least that is the plan for now. My wife has been in a lot of pain and depending on how she feels. Thanks for reading and have a great day! :-)

Had a good run this morning with Kory, lots to talk about. As Kory and i finished up we ran into Bill and talked to him for a few minutes. Ran ten miles and worked on my turnover rate for my legs. Not much planned. I am going singing at the juvenile detention center, jail and maybe wrapping presents for a fund raiser for my church. Thanks for reading and have a great day! :-)

I had a good run this morning with Kory. My plan today was to run 6 miles and ended up running 12.50 miles. Which felt really good. I had not ran that far in a long time and i think i needed it. Kory and I had good conversation and it was very enjoyable, thanks Kory. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Today run was a little tougher. Kory and i ran a couple of hills and i think that slowed me down a little and i was able to run my eight pick-ups. But overall i am happy.

Had a good run, for it being the last one of the year. I would really like to express my thanks for all those out there who has helped me out this year. May God bless you and may your next year be better than this year. And most of all i would like to thank God my Savior for saving me from my sins. He has really helped me through all my problems and He is all i need. Thank You Jesus for all the wonderful friends you have given to me. There is a saying that i like say and that is "God is not always early, but He is NEVER LATE!" So no matter what life brings along God will there for you!"
