...so my run today was amazing! simply amazing! i went my 4.5 mile course and it seemed like a breeze. there are several factors i think that contributed to today's success ( Read more... )

...so, for about a year now, when Joe and i go to our local diner (Double Eagle on Cross St.) we've been taking along a Scrabble game...i must say, it's really nice to play a game and focus on something tangible and fun and get away from the cyber world and cable tv...and it's a good way to pass some time while waiting for food...i got creamed ( Read more... )

...well, i must say this summer has started out well. i'm finally getting all my finances back in order, gonna take a quick little jaunt out to Chi-town next week, getting some new clothes, i'm still running, i have a great great girlfriend, and i may be getting a newer car soon...so possibilities and good times all around ( Read more... )

...tonight, i ran 4.5 miles. i started out at a good pace, i always seem to run better with my coach. eventually i slowed down after the 2 mile point, at which time it was my usual up and down pace...i'm getting better, i know it ( Read more... )

...payday is Friday...thankfully. i need a new pair of running shoes. while i know they won't be the miracle answer to my running issues, they will be a big step in correcting some of the pain issues i've been having (back pain, leg pain, knee pain). so that's the big thing, aside from rent, this coming paycheck ( Read more... )

sorry all, took a bit of a break there from posting and what not. memorial weekend was pretty good...i got nothing accomplished outside of cleaning my bathroom which scientists may have deemed, at the time, unfit for the disposal of hazardous waste due the present level of contamination...so that's done...i had a small cookout for some close ( Read more... )

...hooray! i made my run today. i had actually decided earlier to just take a break until this weekend to see if whatever type of lethargy that has taken over my body might be gone by then...but i changed my mind, and my route...i did one that is only a hair shorter than my 3.5 mile run, but it's a lot less 'busy'...not as much traffic or houses ( Read more... )

...well, tomorrow (today technically) should mark the end of my hellacious month of work...30 days with three off (I got lucky and got an unexpected day off)...but, next week isn't all fun and games. wednesday i go in to get my final wisdom tooth and one cavity filled and thursday i'm sure i'll be all doped up...i think i get a three day weekend ( Read more... )
