Just keep running

Asi se hace.

I don't know what that means, but it sounded appropriate.

Ha ! It is appropriate ! Thank you.

Cheers to you too on this new year 2012.

glad you are finding your mojo again. happy new year, eric.

Many thanks Allie.

Best wishes to you too. May you win many races, set many PR's and of course, have tons of fun doing it.

that's awesome. nice job, eric.

you are smart to back off. i hope it's okay now?

Great job on the race. Sometimes other things make up for the poorly run ones---like being on a good course and having a great shirt!

nice job on the 10k/9k. sorry about the poor organization -- that can definitely be frustrating. but as kelli said, hopefully there will always be a redeeming factor -- like chocolate milk at the finish line :)

dang. i'm sorry.

Espero que si!

great job on the 5-miler. glad your calf is making progress.

fun is what it's all about. have a great time!

Always good to see another one in the books from ya!

shuffling is better than nothing :)

nice job today.

looking great, eric!

Thanks Allie, coming from super-runners like you, it make's my day.

Glad to see you had some company, helps out so much on the long run.

Thanks Bec, running along my little girls & wife felt great. Now they understand what a long run means...

Have a great day.

great mileage so far this week. keep it rolling...

Holy smokes! What a great week of running!

i'm glad your achilles didn't cause too much of a bother today. nice job with the miles/k.

Looking good Eric.

very nice, eric!

nice job with the tempo run today.

careful on the stairs! :)

i've found that with quad soreness it just takes time. i'm sure the icing is helping speed the recovery process though. good luck. also, a run is a run -- when your body says super slow it's okay to go super slow.

Many thanks Allie. Your words comfort my pain.

Do you think I have it in me to pull of a sub 4:00 marathon in June? Do you think my training is "good enough"?

Keep those cheers & 'pat in the back' coming, they feel great.

i think you can absolutely hit the sub-4 next month. you have been putting in some solid and consistent training, and your daily km/mileage is looking good. just keep building that endurance up with weekly long runs and you should be able to smash through the 4:00 mark. the speed is there.

Too bad this blog does not have a "Like" button. I like your comment, it makes me feel a runner ! =)

Thanks !

Wow! Nice job!

Did you have a good Cinco de Mayo?

Hi Burt.

Had a good saturday, spent the day working the garden & then went for a late lunch with the family. 5 de Mayo is not that big of a holiday here...

yesssir!

yesssma'am! =)

Happy Mothers Day to your wife Eric.

Last weekend I ran into a friend of mine from Mexico, she was watching the Cinco de Mayo race here in town. She was all decked out in green shorts, a red top with Mexico on the front, and the coolest Mexico socks. I told her the story about you and the Argentine Rocket's contest - and how Lucia had to wear the Mexican flag during her race, she thought that it was an awesome story!!! (although she also thought my idea of you having to wear Argentine flag underwear was also pretty good -- it is, after all, a very pretty flag ;-) ).

Have a good day!!

you're smart giving your body an easy day and allowing yourself to recover properly. good run.

Coming from you makes me feel like a pro ;)

sounds like you are doing just the right things for it.

glad there is progress -- keep that icing and stretching going!

Oh, dang! I hope your leg is feeling better now that it has been a few days! You were smack in the middle of your pre and post leg pain goals. ;o)

glad you have an official diagnosis, and i'm glad it's not too serious.

nice race on sunday!

sorry your quad is still bugging -- i just read your post on the DF and it sounds like things went a little better yesterday? glad the workout felt good and hopefully things are still feeling good today.

Surviving is what I would call it.Doing better but still far from being well.

One down. Two to go.

Great job on a tough course!

Thanks Mr. Burt ! It was tough, but you can tell that all the hard workouts do pay when needed.

nice job today and throughout this week. all the best to your wife and her upcoming surgery.

Thanks Allie, surgery should be done in about 2-3 weeks. We prefer to go out on vacations before the operation.

mmmm. it's good for you. or so i hear...

Cause of the proteins? mmmm ... don't taste good !

yeah Eric i am so glad to see this! congrats on the PR and a repeat marathon!!

Thanks April. Very happy to finish another one and feeling great. Should restart running in a couple of days.

Awesome job on the PR, keep it up!

nice job on the sub-50! that's great.

Nice going!

yesss!

nice, consistent week. :)

7k...very nice, eric!

Siete k. Muy bien, eric!

trail run! sounds fun. good luck.

Good luck!

Thanks guys!

Will try to have fun =)

great job, eric. i agree that trail running is very different -- i'm terrible at it, especially on downhills!

nice job on the race -- hopefully the calves aren't too sore.

YEAH to your girls! And yeah to the 80 year old grandpa! Impressive he is out there. That sounds like a really fun race, I like the leash idea!

way to go, eric!

hi eric. glad you are back.

Thanks Allie. Nice to be back, hope all is well with you.

RIP, beloved cumulus.

Hi Allie. Why can´t I see your blog anymore? Did you block me? =)

no, i just broke it. i'm not sure what happened but i accidentally vacuumed up my laptop and my blog hasn't worked since. ;)

happy new year.
