Running the Long White Line

The Run… Yesterday’s long run started off well and with a good dose of fun but, it ended abruptly with a great deal of discomfort.   My goal for Saturday’s run was 20 plus miles but I ended it at 16.4 miles.  I was disappointed to say the least. I did a good stretch before...

Running with my new Iphone 4 Wristband Waterproof Case in the Daffin Park Area

Just call me lazy because that’s what I’ve been the last few days.  This past Sunday and Monday, I kept putting off my run.  So, I went two days without running.  Not good. Today, though, I did go for a run and, it was good. Also today, my new iphone 4 waterproof case arrived. ...

A Long Blog about a Long Run

I finally got in a successful long run.  Unfortunately, my iphone battery died shortly after I crossed the 17 mile mark.  And, with that my gps and imapmyrun app was gone.  Fortunately, the phone died when I was within sight of my house, where I initially started the run.  I had wondered how many...

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 in the Heat is Tough on Me

The heat is still kicking my butt during runs.  I ran 11.09 miles Sunday with temperatures in the high eighties.  At the end of the run the temperature was slightly cooler at 86 degrees. During the run I had to make a stop at the portable toilet that’s located on the eastern shore of...

Picture of the Day: Marsh Flowers

Picture of the day is of some flowering plants that grow along the marsh around here in the Savannah area.  I don’t know what this plant is called but I’ve become quite acquainted with it at the dairy farm and the rails to trails where it grows like weeds in the marshy areas. I...

This evening, I broke the 400 mile mark with my vff bikilas. Yep. I’m at 402.96 miles on these red, smelly, falling apart bikilas. How much more can they take? Huh. That’s the hundred dollar question. The fabric in between the toes has torn on almost every toe on both bikilas.  The soles are...
