What is a "storms" run?

What is a "storms" run?

It means I was supposed to run and wimped out. I don't do lightning.

Hey, put me in that category. Rain, snow and wind are doable. Through in lightning and I am indoors.

That’s not wimping out - that‘s being smart. Running in rain is fine, but running in lightning can be dangerous.

I've been caught running in lightning twice. Personal records were set.

Sun was 15@13:30 with my DW. Should have been longer, but we ran out of time.

 

[OG Runner]

4.60 miles last night at 12.57. I was actually pretty happy. The time of my first mile and last full mile varied by 16 seconds.
The run overall was very steady.

 

[OG Runner]

A cross training day. 25 minutes on the elliptical and 20 minutes on a stationary bike.

 

[Swissmiss]

6 miles (with elevation gain of nearly 100 flights of stairs), 2.9 miles and 4.4 miles - all between 11:30 am yesterday and 3 am this morning

it's FINALLY cooled off a bit in Orlando!

2.57 @ 13:38/mi. Still assuming I'm NOT running wine/dine because of my new job at Disney so I backed off my training a bit. I took most of last week off

 

[OG Runner]

4.54 miles on Sunday morning. My pace "sucked". There just is no other way to put it. It was raining when I went out and I was wearing my camelback. (I am trying to get more comfortable with it.) My stride was short, I felt like my feet were stuck to the ground and as the rain stopped, the sun started to come out and I felt like I was wearing a sauna suit. Other than that it was a fine waste of time.

 

[Texas84]

15 miles Sunday, very nice weather. Got a bit loopy at 13 when it started to get warm. But fall is finally here.

Monday: At Disney not running
Tuesday: 5 miles
Wednesday: 5 fast miles (for me)
Thursday: 5 miles
Friday: One hour eliptical
Saturday: 8 miles
Sunday: 13 miles decent pace, but I am much more sore today than I would have expected

16@12:40ish yesterday w/DW and our DS on his bike. Into the taper for the virtual Boston. My son pushed the pace towards the end, think the last few miles were neg. splits at 11:30, 11:10, 11:00 and 9:50 from me just chasing him down. It gets hard for him to stay slow towards the end, so I have to keep his pace, instead of him keeping ours. ; )

 

[OG Runner]

I wish there was a way to get a virtual kick in the butt. My running motivation has hit an all time low. When I am running, I don't feel
like I am running well and it has made it that sometime I just don't want to. I got changed into my running gear at work at the end of
the day and headed home. By the time I got there I had no desire to run and didn't. Really need to pick it up. I am training for January's
Disney Marathon and have a half marathon this weekend. (Sorry for the rant)
