Summer running
Friday, 04 June 2010 - Written by bige91 [profile]
Okay, it is Hot here now in FL. I have cut back on the miles since I am not training for anything at the moment. I am just running for fun which I find enjoyable. Hitting the beach after work gets me some fresh air and time to clear my head. I have a route that has water stops along the way so I don't have to carry anything with me and can replenish the sweat that I am losing. On the weekends I can get out a little earier and go a little longer before it heats up. I feel so lucky to be close enough to run from my house to the beach and get a nice run in. It makes me appreciate nature more than hitting the streets. I don't have to worry about getting run over by a car but I do sometimes think about the guy in SC that was running down the beach and the plane landed on him and killed him. That would suck.

A rainy run
Wednesday, 05 May 2010 - Written by bige91 [profile]
Of course it started raining when I was farthest away from home so I got a little wet but it wasn't so bad since it was hot. I actually ran into a friend who just started running and it made me glad to see him get off the couch. I remember my first run a year and a half ago. Getting older isn't easy but I feel healthier now more than ever because of my running. I hope that he sticks with it. It would be nice to have a running partner.

It's good that your friend has started running, but I am not sure about the runnning buddy thing. Everytime I run with someone , they want to talk my ear off. I have limited abilities and find it hard to talk and run at the same time. I would rather run with them in silence and chat afterwards but it doesnt seem to work that way. Last year in my first half marathon, I ran with a friend who literally couldnt be quiet. If he wasn't chatting with me , he would start talking to the next closest runner. 13.1 miles of that. I would rather run in silence. So be careful wishing for a running partner. Good luck!

I hafta agree I hate talking and running. I'd rather run in silence. Apprecaite the beauty of where I am running and the music I'm listening to.


Mury says:

Yup, don't like to chit chat while running at all, but I do like having someone to run next to on some of my runs. Anything under 20 words during the run works for me

I agree, that's why I run at 5 AM. Total silence is one of the main ingredients.

Pollen again
Monday, 19 April 2010 - Written by bige91 [profile]
It's that time of the year when the pollen is so bad that it just chokes me going around the block. So, I have been running on the beach instead, which is awesome to me, but I think that we might be having a RedTide again that fills the air with algae spores that can be worse than the pollen. I don't have allergies but when I was running I thought that it was harder to breathe than usual. Hoepfully we can get some rain this week to clean the air. I don't need anymore reasons to not run.

Another 5k
Friday, 02 April 2010 - Written by bige91 [profile]
Gonna do another 5k tomorrow but this one is sponsored by the young lawyers association, so I figure I have a shot at finishing well if an ambulance comes by and half the field follows it.

A great band will be there to celebrate afterwards.

River run in Jacksonville
Monday, 15 March 2010 - Written by bige91 [profile]
I finished the 15k in 1:12:55 almost reaching my goal of 1:12:00. I am happy because I beat my time last year by 4 minutes. I tried to keep up with Coy but he just dusted me after a few blocks. I gave it everything I had and a little more.
Coy says:

You did awesome E!! If you can, meet us at riverside Y tomorrow night a 6pm for the rebirth of Guapo. We will be rotating Saturday runs, which means we will be at the beach some weekends!

hope to see you there!

Coy
