Treadmill Eternity
March 29, 2010 By
This weekend I was able to make it out on Saturday at 7:00am for ride. Jason had invited Kirk Romanotto, to join us for the ride or at least part of it. Kirk has not ridden in years. He use to race with us back in the 90's, but since then, there has not been a lot of riding. I was skeptical going out with him. So I chose a route through town and onto the bike path. I thought this would … [Read more...]

Three weeks and one day until the Boston Marathon! Things could be better, but I did a 17 mile run last week, and I wanted to run 20 on Saturday.

Walking Demons
March 26, 2010 By
A funky week. Trying to allow enough time between hard running efforts I had to run my race pace 13.1 miler on Sunday late afternoon. Since I wouldn't be running the Lincoln Half Marathon this would be my half marathon race of the year. It started out well for the first 3 miles then I started to get a little a hypoglycemic and those walking demons started to haunt me. But I knew that once … [Read more...]

March 22, 2010 By
By Adam Hawkins The St. Patrick’s Day 5K was held on March 14, 2010 in Bloomington, Illinois. This was my second consecutive year running this race.

Crap. My GPS got me to the VFW Hall in Bloomington, … [Read more...]
March Madness
March 21, 2010 By
The time change occurred over last weekend so now there should be enough daylight after work to get in some bike miles. I took advantage of the warmer temperatures and daylight on Tuesday and got out for a 16 mile ride toward Salisbury. My friend Kirk was supposed to accompany me but he was also a victim of those blasted cinders. My legs were still sore from Sunday. Wednesday was a bit of … [Read more...]
