Clyde's Comeback!

DC loop in reverse. Felt really good this morning- really good for a Monday. I had Mik'L roll my hammies out very hard Saturday and that with the day off yesterday really helped. Plus it's been a full 3+ weeks since the marathon and I'm starting to feel like running again. Overall economy/efficient running is coming back. Now 10 miles is feeling about as easy as 6.5-7 felt a couple weeks ago. So I guess life is on the up and ups:)

Same run as yesterday morning. Felt good again so maybe I'm not cursed because that's two good runs in a row. 57 F this morning and a little warm by the time I finished up. Could have pulled the shirt off but didn't want to look like a tuff guy. Nice morning and good run- I'm pretty happy doing not very much right now. 

Same loop as Monday and Tuesday but a little extension around Little Valley at the end. I couldn't sleep around 5:30 so I got up and did my run before Mik'L did her's today. Had a long sleeve and shorts on but after a mile wished I only had a short sleeve. It was 57 F when I left the house at 6 a.m and I should have trusted what the temp said to wear. It just looked like it could be colder because it was soo dark. Felt really good this morning other than the two porta potty stops (one at 4.5 miles and one at 7.5). I had a lot of pizza last night. But other than that the legs wanted more mileage and actually wanted to run hard. I keep them at bay other than picking it up between miles 8-9.5 to catch some road kill runners who were up ahead in the distance. Once I got going the legs still wanted to roll. October is almost over so maybe next month I'll look into some longer runs and some kind of workouts.

Same run as I've been doing all week. Kind of stuck in a groove. A little cooler and I had to use ear warmers and gloves for the first time of the season. 36 F out so I guess I better go get the boat winterized instead of dreaming about using it again one last time. 

Same ol' Situation

Up early and did this one in the dark. Kind o' chilly as the temps were below 40 but once I was moving it just about felt perfect with gloves and ear warms on. Hit the Stone Cliff/ DC loop. Felt pretty good but just kind of strolled along this morning. Stomach was semi jacked. We had mexican food for lunch and then Red Lobster for dinner- and more than anything I was just full of stuff... So the porta potty was a big blessing along the route. Mik'L had a little 5k race this morning so again I didn't get out with the lads.
