Beautiful Fall-Like Friday

 I got out a couple of minutes earlier.  I had a decent night's sleep.  A bit rushed with PD coming up. I did 8.74 in 1:59:47 for a 13:42 minute per mile pace.  Thought I had photos, but something happened .  Have a blessed day!

Feeling Like Fall

  I did the Ridge Loop this morning.  The turkeys were out on this dry and cool spring morning.  I settled into a nice comfortable walking pace. I enjoyed the solitude and quiet of this loop-- I find myself listening for the Lord's voice as I walk this loop.  I did 8.85 miles in 2:04:31 for a 14:05 minute per mile walking pace.  It was 54 degrees which felt cool considering the warm weather we have been having.  I will put some pics up at another time.  This computer is kind of finicky right now.  Have a blessed day!

Eastport/Ridge Photos

 Here are photos of my workouts in Eastport on Friday and Saturday --last week.  The last three photos are from the Longwood Loop on Monday.  Enjoy











Comfortable Wednesday

  It was a comfortable morning with a chill in the air.  I did the Longwood loop again.  I had some running portions again.  My overall stats are off as I forgot to hit stop when I finished my workout so I had around 9 minutes of wasted time.  I did 8.83 miles in 1:58:13 for a 13:23 minute per mile walking pace.  I think the miles would have been under 13 minutes per mile.  It was 61 degrees this morning.Have a blessed day!

Friday/Saturday- Eastport, Monday/Tuesday-Ridge

Just a quick update.  I will try to put some pictures up later.  Friday-9.3 in 2:01:42 for a 13:05 minute per mile pace  Saturday- 9.33 miles in 1:56:11 for a 12:27 minute per mile pace. Monday- 8.75 in 2:00:25 for a 13:45 minute per mile pace.  Tuesday- 8:75 in 1:55:18 for a 13:10 minute per mile pace.  I have been throwing in various running segments to shorten my workout times. Just trying to stay on track even when things get hectic.  It was great to get back to Eastport to attend my daughter's graduation.  It was nice to talk to old friends.  It was especially nice to have my wife with me.  Eastport will always feel like home.  Have a blessed day--God Bless you!

Bright, Clear, Comfortable on the First Day of June

  I got out on seemingly less sleep.  Tomorrow morning when I wake up I will be waking up in Hope, Maine==Lord willing.  I would like to get in two workouts in Maine--but it might be just one--not sure exactly what will transpire.  Yesterday was a long day, picking my in-laws up at JFK.  It was a slow commute home.  Today after work, me, Char, and Kim are heading up to Hope, Maine.
  Back to the workout.  I felt a bit tired, but the pace was decent.  Today was the first day this week that I heard the turkeys.  They don't seem to be as active in hot weather.  It was a comfortable 61 degrees--the rest of the week will be in the 40's--but I will be dressed for it.  I did 8.84 miles in 1:59:46 for a 13:33 minute per mile pace.
This is Kastal about 1.5 into the workout. Pretty skies.
This is a pic taken just before I turn around on Ridge road.  Pretty place.  Have a blessed day!

Monday/Tuesday

I got up at my usual time on Monday even though it was Memorial Day.  It was a warm rainy morning and the streets were unusually quiet.  I did 8.82 miles in 2:00:46 for a 13:42 minute per mile pace on the Longwood Loop.  This morning I did 8.85 miles in 2:02:18 for a 13:49 minute per mile pace on the Ridge Loop.
