All I want for Christmas...

Good morning, well the big day is almost here and what better way to prepare than to go for a morning run.  I know we tend to relax during the holiday season but hey my reasoning is if I continue to run/exercise I won't feel guilty for eating all of that yummy food ;)  I ran 3.72 miles in 33:00.  Have a Merry Christmas, put one foot in front of the other and remember that Jesus is the reason for the season :)

Its' brisk out there_11/27/13

Greetings, this is a re-post from 11/27/13.  I wanted to get a run in before Thanksgiving so out I went.  Man it was rather brisk out there.  I got the "enjoyment" of running with and against the wind along with a below average temperature.  Time 2.93 miles in 28:45.

From breeze to hot air

Merry Christmas everybody, the weather was great yesterday so I decided to take a run after church.  On the way out I had a "nice" head wind that kept me cool.  A fellow runner replied "It's hot isn't it?" I replied yes sir, not paying attention to what he asked me.  On the way back is where the heat wave began.  There wasn't any breeze not even a hot breeze.  Considering I hadn't jogged in about a month it was tiring but I made it.  I ran 3.85 miles in 38:09. I wish every one a Merry Christmas, stay safe and remember Jesus is the reason for the season; God bless! :)

wow that hurt...

Howdy, man because I didn't stretch enough from running on Tuesday my legs were ACHING.  But God made a way and I was able to drop a minute off of my time: Tuesday 29:41, today 28:40:84.  Note, I used my stopwatch instead of my phone to track my time, I ran the same distance though.  Push through the PAIN :)

I'm baaaack!

Greetings good people, the running season has "started" once again. It must be just me because my body was protesting from lack of exercise.  I took last week off and I'm aching like I'm starting over.  Good news is that I ran 3.16 miles in 29:40.  Considering I took the summer off from running, except the occasional mile here and there, I am happy with myself; thank you Lord of course :)

oh the harraaagh

Hello folks, I haven't cycled or run in a while so I went out today since the rain skipped my area.  Man I felt like I did my worst.  I biked 3.60 miles in 24:02 minutes.  I'm going to put on my big boy shorts and look forward to Saturday Lord Willing.  I also tried out a new app called runtastic, so far so good.

so now it won't rain

I meant to blog last night but it just slipped my mind.  I didn't want to go riding yesterday and was hoping that it would rain.  After looking at the sky and seeing sunshine I decided to head out.  It was a short ride just 5.53 miles in 31:35; then the light bulb went off.  How cool would it be if I could get in a 30 minute ride everyday; hmm; have a God filled day! :)
