A favorite running store, Momentum, on Clybourn is going out of business. They were a super nice store and I am surprised that they are going out of business as they had lots of fun runs out of their store and in general seemed like a nice group of people. I didn’t shop there a [...]

Well I sure did have fun with that recovery week. Usually I am very much the same with my training. To bed early, awake early…..eat right, don’t drink and run run run.

All of that behavior came to a big fat end on Saturday night. Oh and Thursday because we went out drinking on Thursday for [...]

…or I can’t think of a clever title for this post.

Yesterday Jason and I did 8 miles in just under a 9 min/mile average around the neighborhood. Felt ok, nothing exciting to report, just some side stitch problems about half way through. In the evening we met up with everyone’s favorite Jayhawks, Mouse and the [...]

Well my guy is 28. 28…..really? It feels like a just “a couple of years ago” that we were stumbling down Broadway Ave after he’s 22nd birthday. Humpf. Mike likes to remind us that Jason has now moved from his “mid” 20s to his “late” 20s. Oh it’s so true too. Ah well…we still have [...]

Well, my birthday isn’t actually until tomorrow (28 and counting), but I already have received two of my presents. First off, my in-laws are awesome and got me the ESPN Baseball Almanac which has the record for every single player who has ever played the game up until 2006. Seriously. Try me. [...]

You know those running days, the ones where it’s a chore to even put on your running shoes, let alone actually do the run itself? But then you get out there, and you have the run of your lifetime, you have the wind beneath your feet and could fly forever.

Know what I’m talking about?

Yeah.

That’s was [...]

Hmm…always hard to write on Tuesdays since we don’t run on Monday so there isn’t much to report.

Last week Jason and I worked at home every day and this week we are driving into the lab. Who cares right (Didn’t I already say that I don’t have much to report….)? Well I have noticed how [...]

This week was the first big week of the training cycle. 46 miles and a long run of…17! (gasp!) Would we make all the miles? Would we survive? Oh, I can’t stand the suspense.

Well, the first part was easy. We had a 5 mile recovery which we did first thing [...]

I don’t know if I need to say more than this slide show.

Oh and we ran this morning….5 miles recovery. Tomorrow it’s a big 17 miles….whooooo.

SERIOUSLY SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Oh my god, some people have been locked out of their apartment and are sitting outside our bedroom window and the girl has apparently a whole fucking arsenal of clangly jewelery.

SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP.

As long as I’m “awake” (barely as we went to bed late thinking we’d sleep in) [...]
