| | Husky Stadium loop from Bryce and Bonnie's house, B-G trail to Montlake, down to boathouse and back by Dempsey/baseball field, then through the little arboretum. Cool, damp morning. The new UW track looks awesome, it's almost ready to open up. 36:00 supernova sequence | | Add Comment |
| | Illahee State Park and back, cloudy, mild morning. Felt better climbing the hill up from the beach than a month ago, which is a good sign. 46:16 brooks cascadia | | Add Comment |
| | This turned into a lousy week of running, and not that much better of a week overall. Too many late nights and early mornings at work, I'm burnt out right now. But I did sneak in a much needed four miles on the treadmill tonight, and did it with a new pair of shoes even. Amazing how a few miles can help your perspective. 31:00 glide 4 — 4 | | Add Comment |
| | After a few stormy days, this morning was wonderfully calm and clear. I caught a good window to run. Mike is out of town, so I ran from home to Illahee State Park and down to the beach there, came back up the trail and then took Perry Avenue to Illahee Preserve. Did a big loop in that forest, then back. At about 50 minutes, when I was in the preserve, my right achilles tightened up. I stopped and stretched, but it stayed pretty tight. On Perry when I was returning, at maybe the 1:20 mark, it completely seized up. Different feeling than a cramp, it's more of a specific soreness right where the achilles and calf come together. I walked 50 yards, then slowed the pace down for the rest of the run and trimmed off about 2 miles so not to push too hard. 1:39:00 glide 4 -- 18 | | Add Comment |
