Me & My VFF’s

my happy vff feet

Well, I’ve been running with my vibram 5 fingers for a little over three months.  In those three months I’ve completed a half marathon in them & have logged 67.67 total miles since I bought them.  Contrary to misguided belief I have not gotten any faster.  My pace is about twenty [...]

Rough Running: VFF’s and rocks do not go well together!

VFF's on rocks – no good

My feet are still hurting!  Yes.  I ran 5.57 miles today at the rails in my 5fingers.  And, I wish I had not.  With the recent rains we’ve had and the abnormally super high tides we’ve had the rails to trails have been hammered hard.  There are big ruts [...]

Cleaning my vff’s

my super clean vff's

If you wear your vff’s long enough you will soon learn that they will stink up your whole house and possibly even get you evicted out of your neighborhood.  I’ve heard of women leaving their husbands over stinky vff’s.  I’m not lying…really…maybe…

Lucky for you and me I’ve just learned how to [...]

Bonaventure cemetery running

me, cartoonishee

I ran 4.49 miles today entirely in Bonaventure cemetery. Today was the closest I’ve been to mapping out the entire cemetery. That is one of my little goals – to run every pathway in Bonaventure cemetery.  I wonder how many miles that will be?  Maybe, 1 million?  I doubt that, [...]

Tybee 1/2 Marathon Experience: Excellent!

At the finish!

Well, I ran the Tybee 1/2 marathon today using my vibram 5 fingers.  And, I finished the race with a better time than I expected.  My time was 1:43:13.  I figured I would finish closer to two hours.  So, I’m happy but not my feet.  My feet are very upset with me.  [...]

Tybee 1/2 Marathon Packet Stuffing Fiesta, Elliptical & the groundhog

Talmadge Bridge

Tonight at Fleet Feet there was a race packet stuffing party.  Everybody that showed up to stuff stuff into the race packet bags for this weekend’s Tybee Island 1/2 marathon and 5k got a free slice of pizza and a free race registration (if they had not already registered).  Unfortunately, I registered in [...]

Brownies and Running

6.18 mile run in Berwick/Southbridge area

I ran 6.18 miles this evening in the Berwick and Southbridge area.  It was fun and chilly.

My parents live back there.  So, after work I went to see them and have dinner with them.  I never run in that part of town so I took my running gear with [...]
