Running: Days 80, 81 and 82

Logan — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 03:35:12 +0000

As you can see from the headline, I haven’t been keeping up with blog posts like I should. I aborted my run on day 80, went for a nice fast run on day 81 and went for a run with (…)

Running: Day 79

Logan — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:58:30 +0000

I went out with my heart rate monitor today for the first time and it was fun. I wanted to push the intensity a bit during the run to see what my heart rate would do. I went at about (…)

Running: The half marathon

Logan — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 23:26:10 +0000

(Update at 7:10 pm on 1/29/12: My official chip time was 1:55:50, which is about 5 seconds less than my watch time.) I ran my first half marathon (and race in general) today. It was awesome. I was out there (…)

Running: Day 77

Logan — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 18:36:18 +0000

I took it nice and easy on today’s run. It was the perfect temperature, there weren’t too many cars or people to deal with and the sun was out. I can’t ask for much better during a run. I took (…)

Running: Day 76

Logan — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 00:12:45 +0000

My legs were tired today. I went out way too fast, which probably didn’t help things much. I have a problem where I speed up as I come up behind people to pass and that happened a lot in the (…)

Running: Day 75

Logan — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 01:12:12 +0000

I split my run into two today. The first was a short 1-mile warm up with Luna, then I went out for about 7 on my own. It was a good run and Luna seemed to enjoy coming with me (…)

Running: Day 74

Logan — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 01:01:15 +0000

I felt great on today’s run. The weather was perfect, my leg felt good and I cruised through the miles. I probably could have gone faster, but I don’t want to get injured again. I don’t think today’s run could (…)

Running: Day 73

Logan — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 20:03:38 +0000

I felt great on today’s run. My leg is very close to 100 percent and hardly bothered me at all. That said, my stride must still be compensating some because things started to get a bit sloppy around mile 6 (…)

Running: Day 72

Logan — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 20:45:29 +0000

I went for my first real run since my injury today. I had 8 miles planned but told myself I would cut it short if anything felt weird. I ended up doing just short of 5. My left leg (the (…)

Running: Day 71

Logan — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 00:31:22 +0000

My leg felt almost 100 percent on today’s run. I’m so glad it’s healing and I can’t wait for it to be back to normal. Luna is also getting better at running with me, with a few exceptions. There were (…)
