That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Conditions were near perfect today. Maybe just a bit on the cool side, so I wore sweat pants and a long-sleeve shirt. I've had goods run wearing the same clothes before though ( Read more... )

I have fallen short of most of my running goals lately. Weather or other circumstances have interfered with my plans. Despite not running as far as I planned, my time was better for the distances I did get to run ( Read more... )

Was going to post about running on Sunday. I got caught up in a meme on FB though and skipped it. Sunday was good though, I ran eight miles non-stop. Finished the run in 1:45. Almost tripped over my own feet during the last mile ( Read more... )
