The Rock n Roll Savannah Marathon, it finally came and now it’s gone…And, what a great event it was! 23,000 runners were registered for this event and I do believe they were all out there! I’ve never seen so many runners en masse! This was not my best race but it was by far...
I’ve been tapering for the past week now and will continue until race day, Saturday, November 5th. So, what exactly is tapering? From my understanding, it’s when a runner winds down his/her training for a particular upcoming race, usually, a marathon. Tapering is usually done two to three weeks prior to the race. In...
…but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary… Isaiah 40:31 This is the Picture of the Day. All of my running shoes now have Isaiah 40:31 written on them. Why? Because it’s a wonderful scripture and incredibly...
Yesterday, I was finally able to do a decent long run. I ran 14.22 miles. The weather was nice and I felt good during the entire run. At the end of the day, though, the ball of my left ankle began to ache some. The ache actually begins at the top of the ball...
“We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves… The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom. No one can say, ‘You must not run faster than this,...
So, I ran 4.44 miles yesterday right after I ate a bunch of sea bass and vermillion snapper that I caught the week before. I also drank two beers and ate 8 cookies. The whole time I ran I kept burping and tasting the fish, beer and chocolate chip cookies I had eaten. Despite...
Saturday was a very busy day for me but thankfully, I managed to get a 9 mile run in. I’ve been working a little more on reducing my summer running pace as we get closer to Fall and hopefully, increase the pace in cooler temperatures. The temps are still pretty high down here in...
Yesterday I did a 3.8 mile run with my new running shoes (Nike Free Run+2) and new running camera (Panasonic Lumix dmc-ts10). I felt like a brand new runner. It was total awesomeness…that is until my stomach became upset and threatened a hissy fit unless I slowed down. Unfortunately, I was weak and gave...
On the 23rd day of the month of August I ran six miles and it was good. My left foot did irritate me a little bit, though. That darn callous on the ball of my left foot does not like vff’s. Every time I run in vff’s that left callous flares up and gives...
Yesterday I ran 9.58 miles. Part of the run was on the rails to trails and the other was on highway 80 and the zombie trail. It wasn’t a fast run but it was an enjoyable run. I need more of these enjoyable runs to keep me interested and focused. Yeah, I’ll admit it,...
