23 days of running.

Funny thing is one would think that if you run 23 days in a row you might loose a couple of pounds.  Not me but I'm sure the pounds will star coming off especially when the days start warming up.

5 Days out of 100

Well I am 5 days in and I have run all of them. I figure in doing so I will eventually loose some weight and gain in speed.

My watch came in today so I have it charged and ready for tomorrow.

Jan 2013

I belong to the Dead Runners Society and they have a  100 day challenge. Today was my first day of my 100 days running and I ran 5k.

It was cold outside and my wife and I both ran. Well she ran with me for most of the time and since she is faster than me she sprinted to the end. Actually I think she did so because she is very competitive and wants to always beat me.

My secret goal is to outrun her some day in a race. What my plan is is to train hard and sandbag her some. We both enter a race later this year and I will have her run next to me. When she tells me she is going to sprint I too will kick it in and hopefully I will be able to beat her. Now I will have to plan the correctly and make sure that I am in good enough shape to actually beat her. If I try and fail then she will know what I am up to and most likely will never let me run beside her.

Happy New Year everyone!

Another run in the rain.

A good morning for a run in OKC. It was raining and we had our normal wind blowing. For those of you who don't know much about Oklahoma City a 20 mph wind is a slight breeze. A band of rain was blowing through so their was 30 mph gusts..

It is funny how some days running is a lot easier than others. Yesterday was my wifes birthday so we had a great dinner out and wine. Probably too much wine and I could tell when I was running this morning. Oh well ...Cheers!

A shortend run

This morning my goal was to run over 3 miles. About 2 miles in my stomach started feeling funny and the next thing I know I am running at a pretty good pace just to make it home! Sometimes motivation comes in the strangest way!! 

Oh..I ran 2.6 miles.

Wed morning run.

Another early morning run. I was tired this morning and really didn't want to get out of bed but my dogs wanted out and since I was up I might as well throw on my running gear. It was a good morning with the wind out of the north. A nice cool breeze in my face felt good considering the hot summer we had.

2.4 miles in 25 mins
