Easter Running

A great run on Easter Sunday.  I ran 3.1 miles in under 26 minutes, which is a personal best for me.  The weather was good.  I was a little worried about this run, I has some beer last night and did not eat very well last night.  But everything was all right and I was able to put in a great time.  Really looking forward to the Komen next weekend.  CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

Easy Like Friday Morning

The Dog and I took it easy today.  Hardly any running, just walking.  Got almost 5 miles in an hour and that is just fine with me.  Warm and muggy, probably going to be like this for a while.  Feeling good.

This Week

Has been great.  I started a new, wild dog free, route this week.  I like my old route better still, but so far there haven't been any wild dog chases.  It is a little longer too, which is good.  I'm feeling great, my weight is staying down and things seem to going really good.  New job is keeping me busy during the day so I don't have as much time to update my blogs like I used to.  I try to keep posting.

Wild Dogs

What was meant to be an easy workout this morning turned into quite the adventure.  I wanted to take it easy this morning, after the big run yesterday and the weather not being too favorable for the dog.  It started off well, a little stiff but nothing eventful happening.  And then the dogs came.  I passed them on the way out and got past them without too much hassle but it was still scary.  They were wary to run out into some light traffic and the dog and I hauled ass.  I was pretty worried about coming back but there really is no way around where they were for me to get home.  So I sucked it up and dove back in and hoped for the best.  I got almost through where I had seen them and thought that maybe they had moved on.  When I got half way through the area I saw them and they saw me and it was on.  Thank goodness they weren't distance runners.  The dog and I had a big enough lead on them that they got a little too close for comfort but they never really got withing striking distance.  I think I'm going to get me some pepper spray.

Haulin' Booty

Tried to run my full 5 mile course this morning and almost succeeded.  And I felt great.  Still feel great.  It was awesome.  Pretty soon I'll be able to do the whole thing.  Weight is still down but I haven't lost any more.  Grr...Weather was nice, a little on the humid side but all right.

Same Thing, Different Day

Nothing too eventful today.  Got up, got ready, got gone.  Another good workout and good weather.  The dog was good and I was good.  Weight still down, still eating right.  Voila!
