Personal: BSRools, the B stands for Brent and the S for Sylvie. The Rools come from my personal running rools over the years: Never complain once the run starts, allways pick up the pace into the wind and always pick up the pace on a hill. If someone whines, pick up the pace. Once a goal is set, no whining, regardless of setbacks. We were running when running was not Kool. Kool comes from a race story, ran my first race, 5K wearing a "beanie that had "Kool Aid Kid" Favorite Blogs: |

Upper body weights, bench press, curls, etc. It is nice to have workout room in the basement, Direct TV, great spin bike and Nordic Trak. But, I would rather be outside.
*Note, about weights, per doctor, lifing weights increases the absorbsion of calcium for strong bones.

Monday Morning, this is the first morning, 4:20 a.m. run for several months. It was great morning with the moon peacking thru the clouds. It was not quite a moon shawdow morning, so left Cat at home. Now, my running, if it can be called running. Somehow, I need to learn to run smooth. Each run, I think it, try to improve, etc. I plan on running three days this week for the first time in almost 6 months.

Early morning, gym workout, 30 minutes spin bike, 30 minutes eliptical. circuit weights upper body. Ran .25 on the treadmill, 2% grade, 8 min pace, no brace. The treadmill run was a trial run of sorts. I need a way to run hard without bothering the knee. Tomorrow's run will be the real test. *Note, got my bike fixed after the crash last friday, $70 later. Maybe I am not a kid, but, old Please follow Fast Running Blog policy regarding vulgar language land is no where in the future.

Early morning run, moon lite, very pleasant. The aches and pains from the marathon decided to run along withe me. Bagged the 30 mile bike ride because of gear problems on the bike, rode the bike for 11 miles. I may ride the spinner or do the Nordic trak later today. Chores today, start getting ready for winter, yuck, I took the snow blower for a tuneup and started putting away outside stuff.
