Running tally ending Oct 18, 2009

This past week was ok. I didn't have a lot of time during the week due to working late several days. Then I went to Houston to see J*** on Thursday. I ran 5 days total, so I was pleased over all. I need to step it up and try another run in the double digits. This next weekend I will try 12 or so. I will be going down to San Diego.

I ran late after work and had zero energy. It was probably due to running almost 11 miles yesterday. My body just wasn't into this run.

I ran on the treadmill at the gym after doing about 32:00 min in the elliptical trainer. There were NO treadmills open even at 7:30pm! I was beside myself. This 24 Hour Fitness may be huge, but they don't have enough treadmills. They have a ton of other cardio equipment, but only like 10 treadmills. So I only did over 2 miles. Didn't have time or energy to do a real run tonight. I wanted to do more.

I'm in Houston this weekend and surprisingly it is dry and not that humid! I had some time today (Fri) so I ran while J** was at work. I ran at 12:30pm so I should have gone earlier when it was cooler, but it probably was about 75 out, not too bad. I ran on some grass parts along the drainage canal.

My energy was low, but I made it through an ok run. It was still dry in Houston, which is a RARITY! This is the best weather I have ever experienced in Houston in the 2 years I have been coming here every other month!

Still dry and ideal conditions in Houston, a true anomaly. I ran faster today for some reason. I think I was trying to get it over with. At first I didn't have energy but then mid-run I felt better.

Well, I was shooting for over 30 miles but I had to skip a day of training due to working late. I need to try to fit in a day in the morning so then I can't blame work. I put too much pressure on myself. I slightly redeemed myself by running 3 days in a row, but I cannot do that often as I risk injury, and we all know my track record with injuries over the past 3 years!
