New running PR

Thunder had us run for cover at The West Wind Inn and we waited 10 minutes for the system to pass.

 

New running PR.

Total but not consecutive running milage yesterday morning was 2.1 miles.

One-mile warm up, rest 10 minutes due to thunder, then finish with 1.1 miles.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Tied for longest continuous run

We see what we want to see.

 

Yesterday morning’s run was 1.5 miles.

By my standards, barely worth it.

By my running partner’s standards, it tied for his longest continuous run ever.

The long way is the short cut.

We see what we want to see.

Insignificance or significance.

Every choice has the same opportunity, even the ones that are routine.

Why?

Because our routine defines us.

Changing it is literally impossible.

Only an indomitable will to change will bring about change.

Anything less will allow excuses to grow and fester, and eventually win.

When our excuses win, we lose.

i wonder if there’s a solution

We decided to go out in public yesterday despite the terrorism.

Art on the wall next to the restrooms. Always wash your hands before dinner.

Under our exterior is an emotional ache that’s difficult to describe.

 

We had a decent walk yesterday before dinner.

i wonder if there’s a solution. Not to terrorism (yes, of course terrorism), but i mean, to pain.

The nagging, unpredictable lower right leg pain.

It flares up sometimes just walking.

A simple change made it a vastly different experience

A simple change made it a vastly different experience.

We warmed up and began the first interval like usual. Then i changed the distance and recovery periods to half of normal.

Shorter distance and recovery, but faster pace and quicker recovery.

We logged less distance, but ran slightly harder.

Quality over quantity.

It was fun to be there as he experienced the concept for the first time.
