Alex · Jun 5, 2007

Well I have this crazy little pain in my left hip so tonight i guess I'll be sticking myself while I study for the last day of finals. I think I have the worst of it today, but tomorrow will be equally bad I'm guessing. 
Plan for running once again has been moved to Thursday and I can't wait! 
2 more days....<img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"> 
Have a great day. 
Alex

kruss · Jun 5, 2007

60 min stairmaster this morning. 
Alex-Hope the hip starts feeling better soon 
Have a great day everyone

Flounder · Jun 5, 2007

Alex - I would suggest 3 weeks no running <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> Just kidding - Put the old finishing kick on finals and get out of there! 
8 easy / recovery miles this am - right @ 8:00 give or take 
Good running to all -

merigayle · Jun 5, 2007

60 mins stepper as well! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"> 
i am switching today's workout with tomorrows because i am getting new shoes today and want to run outside with them tomorrow!!! So, that put me with the stepper two days in a row. Hopefully coach does not get upset when i talk to her tomorrow <img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif">

Lofcaudio · Jun 5, 2007

Good workouts all! My run consisted of a wonderful six miles of recovery this morning in gorgeous conditions (63°F). I had a good night of sleep and though I felt a little groggy when I woke up, I felt very good once I started running. 
I have a lawyer's conference to attend this weekend and I was just notified that there will be a 5K race on Thursday evening as part of the conference festitivities. Once my boss heard about the 5K, he informed me that I should run it. I figure if the firm is willing to pay for my entry fee, I'll oblige by running the 5K. (One concern: this conference is at the Lake of the Ozarks, one of the hilliest regions in the whole state of Missouri. This will be one hilly 5K.) 
Enjoy your runs/workouts/finals etc.

4.5 bleh miles @ lunch. Worked awfully hard to average an 8:15 pace. A lot of work for no return. WTF??? 
Ugh...

merigayle · Jun 5, 2007

Nice ticker, dude!!!!!!! 
yesterday's run i felt like an uber slug. we stopped for water and i was told we ran 4 miles, my watch was at 42 minutes, and i had not stopped it when we crossed the two intersections and stopped for several minutes to drink water or when i walked up the monster hill. So, we were running much faster than my 10+ min average on technical trails. lol. No wonder i felt like i was dragging, i was flying!!

5 on the tm

Flounder · Jun 6, 2007

Well poop - I went for my 4 mile recovery run at lunch - was just enjoying the day when .... I brain farted and steped sideways on a step and rolled my ankle - not real painful, but swollen and it also pulled on the outside of the calf muscle - I will ice tonight when I get home. Not exactly what I want 11 days out - oh well - you have to roll with what you got. 
4 easy @ Lunch

jebba · Jun 6, 2007

Ouch, Flounder! I hope it doesn't interfere with your plans. 
I managed 3.1 miles in 30:10. I did 7 minutes on the stationary bike before Easy decided he'd had quite enough of the bouncy seat. I'll try to complete the bike workout when mr jebba gets home.

QuixoticNotions · Jun 6, 2007

Do y'all mind if I start logging here, too? Think it might help the motivation. 
I did a very easy 10 miles at Stone Mountain. 1:57. 
Meant to do more, but laziness took over. <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif">

equinox marathon 43 · Jun 6, 2007

Hi all, Flounder and Alex - Recovery quickly! QN - No one will mind if you join us. We're a friendly bunch over here. Nice effort out there today! Lofc - Don't let the hills psych you out. You know what you can do, so just go out there and do it! You're going to do well in the 5K. Everyone - Great efforts today. 
As for me: 
b]Daily Run Report[/b] Date: 06/05/2007 Time: 17:15 Run Type: Just A Run Distance: 8.0 miles Total time: 01:06:07.0 Average Per Mile: 00:07:37.3 Course: Track Max HR (for entire workout): 185 Average HR: 165 Shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 10 - 05/2007 Date Entered Service: 05/08/2007 Ending Mileage: 158.75 Weather: Cloudy miles 1 and 2. Sunny miles 3, 4, strides, and rest of 6, cloudy 7 and 8. Temperature: 78 Temperature Type: Ambient Air Time: Start Temperature: 76 Temperature Type: Ambient Air Time: End Dew Point: 64 Time: Start Dew Point: 63 Time: End Wind speed: 3 Max Gust: 13 Direction: SW 
Plan tonight was 8 with 10x100m stride outs. I did the plan running 4 miles then did the 10x100m strides with 100m recoveries in between. Then I ran the remaining 3 laps for mile 6, and the final 2 miles. 
I was much faster early on tonight. The sun came out during the strides and it really took something out of me. The miles after the strides were much slower. 
Overall a good night. Run Segments

duckgeek · Jun 6, 2007

I got out for around 12.5 miles or so after work. 2 PTI's and 41 minutes of a Wait Wait. 
It was 60F out. Felt pretty good.

roots · Jun 6, 2007

About 10.5 miles 
2.5 warm-up 
4.5 @ I-pace 
1.75 recovery laps 
2.5 cool-down 
I love my local running group. The women outnumbered the men. And the fast chicas outnumbered the boys... 
Workout was a ladder. 200-400-600-800-1000-1200-1000-800-600-400-200 
all with 400m recoveries 
After the last few weeks of tempo runs, it felt good to let loose with the faster Interval pace. 
Splits: :42/1:25/2:11/2:57/3:40/4:29/3:35/2:56 (skipped the last 600, 400, and 200) 
Felt good, even though I was the slowest in the group. 
11 days left until MO.

Gingerbread · Jun 6, 2007

Ran 4 miles with a local running group that goes out every Tuesday evening. It was my first time running with them. The route is good, although I was slow. Ah well, it's better than not going at all. 41:51, because I walked sometime around 3.5 miles. 
I was really, really hungry at 3 miles. I felt lightheaded when I stopped. That's unusual, although the start time is an hour later than I usually run and I ate my lunch a bit early. That could be why.

altoids · Jun 6, 2007

3.3 miles at the park. Nice evening!

fox-runr · Jun 6, 2007

must be shit luck in WI...after a day of being on my feet with a field trip, I really didn't want to run...but I had taken Sunday off and I didn't want to send myself into a taper. My body really wasn't responding and then my calf hurt. I thought it was a strain, but it's looking like a tear <img alt="sad10.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad10.gif">. This is not a household to be around today. My DH is hobbling around on a broken toe, my calf hurts, and one son is missing his field trip with a stomache and the other is mad because he has to wear nice clothes for his 5th grade graduation. And the dog wants to be walked

fox-runr · Jun 6, 2007

that's the slow group????? 
edited: response meant for root's post. I should just go back to bed

Alex · Jun 6, 2007

Get better soon fox-runr and family!
