Tuesday run

Today Justin, Anthony and I went our for our run and decided to try out the bike path. The first mile over was okay, but then there were a couple of nasty ice patches. When we got to Ministerial Rd we decided to head up that and get away from the ice. We then turned left on 138, right on Waites Corner, back over the bridge. At the light of 138 and Fairgrounds we ran into Shawn who was just starting. I hung back with him.

Total Distance: 8.15 miles

18 mile Long Run on the East Side

Today Justin, Anthony and I went for our long run on the East Side. We met at Hope High School to start. The loop we did was 4.5 miles. This route had a good amount of hills. Midway through the first lap and most of the second lap I was fighting off the mother of all heartburn. Justin handed me a couple pretzels which seemed to help. Anthony did two laps as his knee was starting to bother him. Justin ran out of pretzels in the third lap so we took a minute stop at the cars so he could reload - and I could well pee. The last lap was tough - but I was able to get through it and even give a pretty good kick for the last half mile or so.

Total Distance: 18 miles

Snowy three miler

Today Anthony and I decided to go for a quick run right in the middle of our snow storm. Windy, snowy (maybe even ice falling not sure).....it was great. Ill take today's weather anytime over the crappy summertime runs. First mile was 8:40, second was a bit slower, but we picked it up fast for the 3rd mile.

Cold Roger Williams Park Run

Met Anthony, Andrew at Roger Williams park. Im still a bit tired from Derry. I wanted to go 10-12 miles today. Ended up with 7.25 miles before I couldn't really go anymore. Not my best run......I plan on trying again tomorrow.

Icy run

Today Anthony, Shawn and I (Drew is resting foot, Justin is under the weather)....went out for what ended up being a very icy run. Most cars were good about giving room when they could (except for the one who had a ton of room to give but didnt - felt the mirror graze past my arm). Besides putting my foot in a puddle - all in all a good run.

Total Distance: 5.5 miles
Total Time: 46:27
Total Average: 8:26

Rest tomorrow - long run planned for Saturday.

First run since Derry

Today was my first run since Sunday's race. Legs were tired but not sore which is good. Shawn, Anthony, Drew and I went out and tried out a modified route to make up five miles. We did the first mile nice and slow around 9:35 - which felt good. Legs loosened up nicely. Last mile was 8:00. Tomorrow may turn into a rest day due to the weather - but if Mother Nature decides to be nice - I'm gonna head out again tomorrow.

Total Distance: 5 miles
