Humid

I got out around 5:30 am. It was mid seventies and humid. I started out doing 14 minute miles and then picked the pace up to average 13:39's doing 9.05 in 2:03:40. I did the Longwood plus extra loop.  I feel like I have a touch of a cold so I bought zinc lozenges .  Doing an extra strength session to cover for next week. My body is sore.   Hanging out with my granddaughter Ruby at the moment. Have a blessed day!

Slow and Steady

I got out this morning just before 6. It was a bit warm. I started out at 14 plus minute miles and eased into a faster, but not fast pace.  I did the Randall plus extra loop for 9.16 in2:07:04.  That's a pace just under 14 min per (walking) mile. I was satisfied , because I felt like I just didn't have it. Have a blessed day!

Wed-9.03 Thurs- 9.03 Fri.- 9.02 Mon.- 9.12 Tues.- 9.52

I'm just doing some quick catching up. Off time seems to be busy time. I've put a bit up on Dailymile, but I haven't blogged at all since last Tuesday. I've gotten in some good training-- sneaking a bit of extra mileage in. I've done the Longwood, Randall, and figure 8 loop for my workouts. We have had some hot weather, but early in the morning the temp is at least tolerable .  I've upped the intensity up slightly on my strength work-- integrating some concepts that my father recommended. Right now I am at Satellite auto glass waiting for my windshield to get fixed after a two mile extra walk along the boardwalk a very beautiful spot. Off to Bartlett , New Hampshire next week with my family. Have a blessed day!

Better Day

It was humid ,but only 74 degrees at 5 am.  I did 8.51 in 1:52:09.  I don't do so well in this humid weather. My pace suffers more from the humidity and heat more than from steep hills.  I like the fact that I'm not pressed for time.  I usually shower up and then lounge around a bit. My strength training has gone fairly well.  Thanks for reading-- God Bless You My Friend!

Hot Start

It was 5 o'clock and it was 79 degrees with 90 percent humidity.  I decided to do the figure 8 loop plus extra for 8.77 miles in a pedestrian 2:03:54. I do not do well in this type of weather. It took me half a day to somewhat recover. I took a water break 5.25 miles into the workout. It seemed to get me through. We are planning on going to the beach a bit later. Not putting much on Dailymile after workout after workout of no comment. I would rather put it here in my blog. Have a blessed day!

Fresh Friday

Beautiful Day

I did the Longwood plus extra loop in1:48:53 for 8.32 miles on a 66 degree dry morning here on Long Island.  It was very comfortable. I saw several ladies from the fitness center jogging in the opposite direction--- they never speak-- so I said a loud "Morning".. and they even responded...wow.  I glided along the route with pines towering overhead.  I could put up with weather like this year round.  I even did the lawn following the workout .  Have a blessed day!
