Not my 26.2 with Donna Update

2012-02-24T13:05:00.001-05:00

At some point I will get around to writing a post on the weekend in Jacksonville and the 26.2 with Donna. Of course it will have to be from Laura's view point since I didn't get to run it because of injury. Until then I will have to work on a new episode of the podcast.

Time Flies

2012-01-05T21:55:00.000-05:00

It seems like time is going by very fast, my last update was a month ago and it seems like yesterday. Since that post I have finally decided that I am not going to be able to run the 1/2 Marathon in Jacksonville due to my foot injury. I am still going to go to the race and hopefully socialize with the other social networking runners that show up for the race. Laura (my daughter) has been training faithfully using the Galloway 1/2 marathon plan. I will be there to give Laura moral support for her race.

I have decided to switch to Tri Training to give my foot a rest and still gain fitness. I have downloaded a Sprint Tri plan into my Beginner Triathlete training log calendar. The plan is weighted toward the bike more than running so that should help save my foot and let it heal. I will be starting the new plan on next Monday with a short swim & bike workout, then it continues till the end of April. So if I get the urge to do a few Triathlons this year I should be ready.

Long Run this Morning

Second long run of current 1/2 marathon training plan. Slow r/w with Laura, foot held up for 1st 8 miles then started bothering me. Got the run in though so I am happy.

Left heel test today. Got through the 7.5 with pain, but it was bearable. Ran and recorded today with Laura.

Short run on the Trail today

Nice easy run in the woods today, seems like I spent a lot of time talking to myself. Felt pretty good today.

Run at Stone Mountain

2011-10-30T22:23:00.000-04:00

Had a good slow run with Laura today, we recorded for the next episode of the LostTrailRunner II podcast. Should have the episode out tomorrow sometime. Foot was ok after the 1st mile or so.

Another Run at Yellow River Park

2011-10-28T21:53:00.001-04:00

Wow, 2 runs in 2 days. This is the 1st time in about a month I have run 2 days in a row. Fairly good trail run today, foot a little tender for first 2 miles then felt ok.

Trail Run at Yellow River Today

Slow, but fun trail run today. Foot not as sore as it has been.

Sunday Easy Run at Stone Mountain

2011-10-09T17:29:00.000-04:00

Ran the inside loop around the mountain with Laura today. We had a pretty good easy run, my right calf seems to be getting better. Of course the PF is hanging on, that will take awhile before it gets better. We did a Run 0:40/Walk 0:30 workout today.

Atlanta 13.1

2011-10-02T19:51:00.000-04:00

I knew I was injured before I started the race, but I did it anyway. Left heel hurt from the start and at about 8.5 miles my right calf muscle started hurting very bad also. So, on the whole I was hurting the whole race. Managed to come in 3rd out of 8 in my age group, so I guess all wasn't lost.

Atlanta 13.1Tomorrow

2011-10-01T14:38:00.001-04:00

Tomorrow is race day and I am not sure I am ready. I seem to have injured my left heel. It started hurting pretty bad after the 10K trail race last week, but I am thinking that it started when I did a 2 mile run on pavement in my Vibram FF Bikilas a couple of weeks ago. I have been using a night splint for the last 4 days and it has helped some plus I haven't run since the trail race. We will see tomorrow how it will play out. Will I have a good race or will I fall apart.
