Another meaningless exercise blog…

good coffee

Going to the gym can be so boring.  I really do not have anything exciting to write about.  At this particular moment I do not even know what to really write about.  Should I write about my ab workout?  Should I write about the nasty, chilly, rainy weather outside?  Should I talk about [...]

I really hate blisters but I like art & vff’s

ellipticizing with mizunos

My left heel is still tender from the blisters I got from running a half marathon this weekend with my vff’s.  I really hate blisters.  They sure can ruin a workout, eh?  They suck.

I did 45 minutes on my elliptical this evening while watching Resident Evil.  Two lingering blisters, both on my [...]

The scattered brain running blog

before the tybee 1/2

Two days after I ran the tybee half marathon with my v5f’s and my calves still hurt and I have blisters on the bottoms of my feet at the heels and the balls of the feet.  It kind of sucks.

I hit the gym after work and did more talking than lifting.  [...]

No Quitting

Why you don't quit

I’m reading a Michael Crichton book called “Travels”.  I’ve been reading this book now for over a month now.  Yes, I am a slow reader.  More than a slow reader, I think that I suffer from spreading myself out too thin by trying to read several books at a time, dedicating [...]

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.  [...]

Off to the races

the tybee 1/2 marathon shirt

Well, I’m getting ready to head for the Tybee 1/2 marathon.  The temp at Tybee is currently at 55 with humidity at 78% and its windy.  Aside from the wind you really cannot ask for better weather for running.

I don’t have any pre-race jitters and that’s probably because I do [...]

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 [...]

Born to Run – with 5 Fingers

This is incredibly interesting.  I’ve now logged about a dozen miles running with my vibram 5 fingers which are essentially gloves for my feet and, I can tell you that your body will quickly adapt to running this bare minimally.  The first time I ran with the 5 fingers I was landing on my heels [...]

To Run or not to Run. Run! And, don’t forget the lottery ticket!

I ran 4.1 miles with my vibram 5 fingers today after work at the area around the Islands Ymca.  It was a good run.  Funny thing is that I did not want to run nor workout this evening.  When I left work I was kind of run down and simply wanted to go home, take [...]

Prayer flags and hot water heaters and wine

over 500 prayer flags at the rails to trails in savannah

Yesterday I biked at the rails to trails and then hit the gym for a good ab workout and some good old fashion stretching.  I have a tendency of pushing myself hard.  It was good to give my old body some rest.  I’m not [...]
