Anyone else have arm cramps after long runs? Really that was a first.

Ran my 9 miler last night at race pace. Probably should not have waited till 5pm. Because I was back at it this morning with 19 miles at 11:30 am. Honestly this was one of my better training long runs I can remember. It helped that the Titans game was so entertaining and lasted up until my...

I thought all week I was supposed to run 9 miles for the WDW Dopey. Went to my wife's family Thanksgiving Dinner and planned on running my 9 the next day. However, when I checked, I was supposed to run 13 this week. I did not have the time to run 13 today but I did 9. I guess I am okay...

Just a thought that I hope a race organizer sees :) So for years we have run this "Dumbo Double Dare". It would make sense for them to have Dumbo available for meet n greets. I know he is a meetable character, he's been spotted several times in the last few years. I don't think this is a hard...

Did my 8 yesterday pretty easily, no issues ran at race pace. Did my 18 today, first 16 miles no problems ran at race pace. Ran while watching the Titans vs Jags game. Once the Titans lost, I had no desire to run on that treadmill any longer, so I went outside. Did a lot of walking on those...

Got back on schedule this week for Dopey, ran a fast 11 miles. It felt good, I think I could have done way more. To bad the game I was watching sucked. The Titans being this bad effects my training. Not looking forward to next weeks 8 and 18, Saturday, Sunday.

I ran a pretty blah 17 last Saturday night. Last four miles I struggled a little taking long walk breaks.

So I went to Disney this week, lots of fun, too much fun. I was supposed to do 6 and 16 this weekend. I knew that was a bad idea, so I did 7 today and will do 17 next weekend. I am too old to follow the exact programming lol.

So, I ran 15 miles today after 5 miles yesterday. I realized I was dreadfully behind on my Dopey training and decided to jump back in today. I am so glad my body still knows how to handle these long runs. After doing this for so long it was not so bad. However, I am not looking forward to the 19...

Just checking in, looks like the "What did you do today" thread is dead. Long update... So I am in week three of training. Doing an alternate plan until I can build up mileage for Higdon's Dopey plan. It snuck up on me this year. The longest run I had done since January was 4 miles, I think...

Did a faster 3 today. Ran three miles in 27 minutes. At age 51 I will take that.

Did a very slow 4 today....time to get serious in about a month.

Still running about everyday, just don't check here in here as often during the Non-Dopey season. I will be back posting more often when we get closer to Dopey. Gonna be a big challenge doing Dopey and Dumbo on back to back weekends. Ran a faster 4 miles yesterday, and a slower 3 today.

I did a slow two miles today because I was very busy.... Been a while since I posted updates here, but we are getting close to marathon training time.... So since I last posted I gained a lot of the weight I had lost lost year back. I have always been able to run a 9 minute mile all my life...

I am in....I decided I could not miss this first year back. I wonder how many perfect Dopey/Dumbo's there are?

I got my legacy runner email today. I had decided not to do it......now unsure

We ended up doing a split stay between Coronado and Yacht Club.... loved them both

Hey gang happy to report I was able to start running again a couple of days after Dopey. Quickest recovery I have had. My working theory is that while I followed Higdon's longer weekend run schedule, I limited myself to, elliptical workouts, or 3 and 4 mile runs during the week. Usually I ran...

I understand @FerretAfros will over take me at some point. He is much younger than I. I simply am going for 1000.

Yes I did! I passed yall during the five k and told you all I loved your costumes. I was the really handsome (lol) dude with a beard and a visor.
