Sunday is Run-day! (July 1st)

toe jam on crusty feet · Jul 1, 2007

4.5 sore, slow, hot, humid miles----no watch, no HR monitor. Just a nice run with a good friend and very slow. 
Hope you all have great runs. I know a lot of you are doing long-runs on Sundays so go kick running booty!

Alex · Jul 1, 2007

Wow I am le tired. Bed time at 2:30 talking with a running buddy I met a few weeks ago who will be visiting soon. Waking up at 7:30. Sleeping about 3-4 hours short of what I usually get... 
Definitely looking forward to my nap afterwork.

11 miles on the Dismal Swamp multi-use trail in 90% humidity/80 degree temps. With the humidity it was pretty dismal, but I staggered through. 
Good things were I saw a green snake, a frog, and 2 deer right on the path, and the biting flies were nowhere to be seen.

Seven miles. 
I share my piece of road with some odd farm vehicles and machinery. 
I have no idea what it was that was churning along towards me today, but it was sort of like a big tractor with these spinning knife-y things twirling around behind it. The driver was kind enough to move into the real traffic lane for me to pass.

Bux I saw one of those last night on my bike ride...I think it may be for planting to loosen up the topsoil or sumthin?

duckgeek · Jul 1, 2007

Hey, 
8.5ish miles (no garmin today) along the river paths. I stopped after 10k or so and ran strides on a soccer field in bare feet. That was the highlight of my run. Oh, and I think I saw two matching Suicide Girls on skateboards.

Buxtehude · Jul 1, 2007

Ah. I see. 
It was scary.

Plan tonight was a marathon-specific 15 mile run with 12 at race pace. 
Problem is, the trail was not an option today, so I had to do this run on pavement. So, I did it a little different. 
I ran over to my off-season hill repeats course. Then I did 10 of my 1-mile hill repeats course. On the way back I did 2 of the 2.75 miles at a faster pace. 
I figure with the Equinox being hilly, that is not a bad way to do it. Run Segments

No running but a late, 15.36 miles bike ride on the trainer, 38.49

Arrojo · Jul 2, 2007

Didn't run today. But instead I hiked up 5600+ ft. Mt. Monroe in NH with jensparks and vogelmd. The upper half of the hike was extremely rocky and steep. That was fine, but what made it even better was that the temp was 35 degrees, the winds were sustained at 30+ and it was raining. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"> The only negative was there there wasn't much of a view at the summit. Still, a fun day capped off with some beer with good friends.

ToddEP · Jul 2, 2007

3.5 today...and it was supposed to be an off day for me.

equinox marathon 43 · Jul 2, 2007

You guys must have been right on the cusp Arrojo. I heard on the channel 5 news tonight that it snowed atop Mount Washington today! <img alt="surprised.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/surprised.gif">

Flounder · Jul 2, 2007

4 easy miles for a night cap

Alex · Jul 2, 2007

3 miles progressively going faster...tomorrow's time to rest up. 
Gonna have another pathetic looking week and then it's time to kick some ass...<img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

Arrojo · Jul 2, 2007

That doesn't surprise me. It was actually sleeting briefly on Monroe, which is right next to Washington (and about 600 - ft lower). If it had been a nice day, the plan was to hike over to Mt. W from Monroe, but that trail is an exposed ridge. Common sense (and the thought of beer) took over at that point. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">
