Weekly Update to April 8

15 miles this week!

4/2 Sacramento CA
I watched a video of Meb running an 8-mile tempo run.  His form was so amazing, it brought tears to my eyes. I did the same workout as last week, but ended up much faster.  2 miles at 18:15, 2 miles at 19:40, and a mile warm down.

4/5 Ogallala NE
Ran 2 miles in 18:55, and warmed down with a half-mile.

Weekly Update to April 1

Got in fifteen miles this week, including my first ten-miler of the year.

3/26 Lake Buena Vista FL
I thought I was looking good, until these two turkey vultures followed me for the last of my ten miles.


3/29  Upstate New York
Why is New York the only state to mislabel their bridge heights?  I guess so that truckers can get in a couple of miles running to see if a bridge really is 12' 4" tall.  (It was not, our 13' 6" trailer cleared it by about a foot!)

3/31 Cheyenne WY
Tempo run.  2 miles in 18:43, then 2 miles in 21:00, then a half-mile warm down.
