Dead legged up the hills 12.43 trails

Same trail run 1:41:33 felt good going out but still tired on the hills. Dead legged up hill have to put in quite a bit of effort to get up the hills. 1 more to go should feel better for the last run. Saw Stuart Galloway out there talked a bit with him. He looks fit.

Need more oxygen

Feel really tired when I hit the hills today and yesterday with Polly. today I was 1:43:50 and tired in the breathing department, must be working the oxygen stores. Trail run wet but it's drying out. Trails should be better tomorrow. 2----12 mile runs to go in this 3 week phase of mileage. Looking forward to recharging the batteries and hitting a good 5k.

Rainy/Windy with bro 12.43m

1:38:09 ran to 10k with brother of mine Paul rainy and dark...got er in with the new shoes achilles fine. Paul has good form out there.

12.43 miler tired

1:41:53 felt tired for this one. My shoes are at the end of the line. I ran the trails today.They say replace your shoes every 300-500 miles. I am at 460 miles and they feel shot. Try the new pair tomorrow. All the little aches and pains will go away.

12.43 in 1:31:12 (7:20's)

Ran in Fonthill with Gary...Steve Bauer trail-out Foss road- back on Sumbler. Left achilles still a bit uncomfortable 1:31:12 threw in a 3:38 km pick up very windy but cool run. Rover went 8k with his right achilles problems.

track work 3 X 2k

Well I hit the track with Greg. Did 1 mile warm-up- 4 X 50 meter strides, 3 X 2k with 400 jog recovery, 7:06, 7:10, 7:16. 1 mile cool down. Not sure why the last one was slow/the wind did pick up a bit, guess it was the 83 miles in the legs. Breathing felt great legs a bit tired. Back to 12 milers tomorrow for the last week before I race.

week 2 done-83 miles

Ran 12.43 miles 1:45:03 with Greg. Good run. Wet and footing tricky.
Left achilles held up. Time to ice it today and tomorrow a day off hit the track Tues for 3 X 2k.

12.43 miles fatigue has set in

tired out-legs breathing-1:43:30 all on trails. I was worried about my left achilles. I felt it during the road 15 miler yesterday. Should have stuck to 12 yesterday. Anyhow, sunk it in ice bucket for 15 minutes four times last night and once this morning seems good no pain during todays run...ice ice again 2 nite.....1 day to go then a day off.

wet 15.08miles

Very rainy and wet today so I had to hit the roads. Went into Effingham into the hills.
Home-glendale-pelham-effingham rd- Took me an 1 hr:58 min to complete it. The elevations are unreal in Effingham. Exhausted by the end of it in the dark. Going to have to start the morning runs.

fastest 12 yet

1:34:59 I tried running with good form the whole run on the trails. Running on my forefeet/hips tilted a bit forward and head looking 50 ft ahead....legs great/breathing great...fastest time equal effort. Keep taking the carb drink. Fatigue has not set in like last week. Halfway there 9 12 milers, 9 to go.
