This has not been my best week of running. I took 5 days off to let a strained hamstring recover a little. Then, after having a relatively mild summer, we all of a sudden hit the triple digits. Thise of you who live in places with normal weather might be thinking, “So it’s hot during […]

Wow! I actually got my scheduled 11-mile run in this week and maintained my goal of not dropping into the 13 minute per mile pace. Yes, I started in the dark at 5:30am, but it really wasn’t too bad. I did decide the flashing light was a bad thing, as I would rather blend in […]
