Dig the push ups!sweet fall run this afternoon , at chilly 59 . 3.45 miler @ a pace of 8:02. awesome fall weather .. makes it fun to run. plus 20 post run pushups!
Come on. Ill pace ya and you wont even know we are gliding down the street.I will NEVER say I ran anything at a comfortable 8 min pace.
Nice Steve.
LOL... doomsday prepper!
Cant wait for those cooler temps!
It will be in the upper 40's for lows until Thursday. Then Friday and Saturday are back to lows around 60. A little frustrating because I have a 21K trail run Saturday morning. It is the killer elevation change run. I was hoping for low temps. At least it is a month earlier this year than last year, so the leaves are on the trees still, so that sun coming through will not get to us that easy. Maybe some of that low temps will stay under the tree canopy.
I've switched to afternoons. Do not like the cold!
. 50+ hours of battery, built like a tank, endless info (time, distance, pace, real time electronic compass, temp, altimeter, barometer, wireless comminication, track log, vibration alerts, etc...too many features).
I didnt either at first, and the first 5 minutes are no fun, but once you warm up, and dont over dress, I just love the chilling of my lungs and the lesser fatigue it does to my body.
So when is Mrs Machine going to talk Mrs. Maxwell into getting Joel that watch. All I want is my 305 to tell me the temp. (and it would be really cool if the screen had a touch sensor on it to gauge wind chill)150 miles (give or take 2 miles) for last week. Hopping to break 200+ miles again by Halloween.
Lots of trails last week and over the weekend. Insane hills. I had to stash my trekking poles and freakin' climb; grabbing onto roots and rocks etc...
Just under 25 miles this morning on sand, asphalt and boardwalk.

Ok, back to work.

Nice mileage. If you have never run trails, especially trails with hills, it is like running double on semi flat land. I completely respect those who do it. Running up a hill on asphalt is one thing, running up a trial hill is like running stadium stairs... with potentially loose footing. Last year i thought I had prepared for this weekends Ruffner Mtn event, but I was humbled. Only way to train for such a thing is actually running the course, or doing a boat load of stadium stairs.
.. Bring it.
Sam would laugh and say that is what my iphone is for with the Weather Channel App.I'll get Alison on it, no worries buddy
I'm at about 75% into my McN500mi training. The trails I've been running are destroying my quads and ankles, and I love it. Especially because I'm pulling the same high mileage, even though it takes twice as long. I'll try and post the elevation profile for McN. The first 1.90 miles has just over 1,200 feet of climb, which means I should bring climbing gear
. Anyway, he's the one who finished McN500 this year; first person ever. There are tons of local ultras near you. Shoot for a quick 50k...because you're coming up to NJ for 100mi in March
