No Running Day

Monday, I could not run. First day all year and that breaks the goal set for the year to run every day.
So sad...I think I have to rest this thing...so I biked this morning, in the pitch black. I am bummed, sad, depressed and disappointed about it.
Hope it heals (heels) enough to run BSIM...et al.

Ouch

So Saturday March 13, I set out to do 18 miles. I had a hot spot all week on the bottom of my foot and thought it might loosen up after a couple three miles. I got out about four and it really started to hurt. So I turned around and limped home. Walking, running, running without a shoe...whatever...totally sucks.
I did however a that terribly slow and mediocre pace happen to find a 1936 buffalo head nickle. Pretty cool that.

The Grade

On Saturday March 6, 2010 I ran over The Grade and back plus, plus and finished over 16 miles with over 2000 feet of elevation gain.
Ran really well and felt good about the training schedule.
I have four long runs left in the schedule...18 miles, Snivley's Ridge, and two 20 milers.
