A Few Good Men

By Dan • Aug 19th, 2008 • Category: Dan's Training Log
After a disappointing day at the track, I showed up to find the high school foot ball team practicing. The was no room for mile repeats. I headed home and was able to sit and eat a quick lunch. With no ...

Go green

By Kim • Aug 19th, 2008 • Category: Kim's Training Log
I try every day to be as green as I can and reduce my carbon foot print.  Everything gets recycled in my house.  I got this great aluminum H2O bottle at Old navy.  Looks like a Sigg, but only $7.50.  ...

Back to school

By Kim • Aug 18th, 2008 • Category: Kim's Training Log
My rough weekend consisted of; an early Friday morning sprint swim, followed by Friday night with Brooks and Dunn, and ZZ top.  Saturday a 4 mile run to sweat out the evil.   Not much else to speak of.  Now this might not ...

Abject Suffering

By Jason • Aug 17th, 2008 • Category: Jason's Training Log

Better day

By Kim • Aug 14th, 2008 • Category: Kim's Training Log
Better than yesterday, that's how I would describe today.  My run felt ok. My legs were tight from the track work out yesterday, but I had to get a run in.  I did a 1 mile warm up, and then ...

The Tuesday Track Club rolled around and wouldn't you know it, we did the say workout I struggled with two weeks ago.  4 X 1 mile @ 6:00 minute miles.   This time the workout was clearly explained to everyone.  Your mile ...
