Elliptical Cross-training and Bringing things back to Perspective

I didn’t run today but I did get on the elliptical for 30 minutes at the Island’s Y.  And, let me tell ya, I tore it up for those 30 minutes!  When I got off that elliptical I was drenched in sweat.  I also lifted weights. I would of liked to have run outside...

Trying to get back into Shape…Eye of the Tiger…Gonna have me some Fun…

Today was the first day that I’ve exercised since my big fail on Saturday, July 23rd in the CrematorUltra 50.  Instead of running today I went to the Island’s Ymca and did weight training.  The weather outside was dreary but I was so tempted to run in the rain.  Running in the rain is...

Squeezing in a Run on a Busy and Hectic Day

I ran 5 miles today and felt good.  I know.  I know.  I said in a previous blog that my smallest run until the CrematorUltra 50 would be a 7 miler.  It’s true.  I admit it.  You caught me in a little ol lie.  I am sorry. Actually, I didn’t really lie.  When I...

A Run Around Whitemarsh Island

Ran 9.48 miles today and felt good.  It was a pleasant, muggy run.  I took one electrolyte cap about 10 minutes before my run and then another 40 minutes into the run.  No stomach problems.  I only consumed 20 ounces of water during the run despite sweating so much that my running shorts, bikilas...

Running a Cross and a Beer Drinking Kitten Named Lyza

Yesterday I felt very run down.  I was convinced that I was coming down with something pretty serious.  At 6:00am yesterday I sent an email to my boss and my coworkers letting them know that I would not be coming in.  I slept until 2:30pm.  By 6:00pm, I felt good.  So, I went to...

Running the Super Nice Island’s Y Trail

Today was a very busy, crazy day at work.  So much happening all at once!  Any way, after work I hit the Island’s Y, worked out pretty darn good and then ran 3.78 miles through the new Island’s Y trail.  What a very nice trail!  Actually, it’s quite beautiful.  My only dislike about this...

When the Weather Sucks, Exercise Inside

The weather definitely sucked today. I don’t believe the temperature left the thirties at all today. And, adding injury to insult, it rained all day but no snow. Atlanta got 4 to 8 inches of snow. Savannah got a buttload of rain with temperatures in the mid to upper thirties all day. Yuck, Yuck,...

Of Running Funks & Treadmills

This nasty cold front we’ve experienced the last couple of days is rea-lleee getting on my nerves, dang it.  Today, I just couldn’t muster the motivation to run outdoors.  So, I headed to the gym after work and ran for 30 minutes on a treadmill.  Thirty minutes can seem so long on a treadmill. ...
