Off day, long 20 mile run tomorrow. Painted today instead. Got some whole wheat spaghetti for dinner, try to carb up a little. Hoping for a better run tomorrow than last weeks long run.

I had to edit the numbers as my math was a little fuzzy this morning. Still a good workout and the new Timex watch with intervals and splits worked very well.

September 8

Had to get up and take my daughter to be in a parade. My wife was working until close to the time we had to leave, so this ends up being another off day.

September 7

Run
  • 3h 32m
  • 18.70 miles
  • 11m 20s /Mi

Not a good run, list of excuses goes like this, humid, windy, new shoes, out of gel, been cutting weight (restricted carbs)...That's a lot of excu...NOTHING. Was planning on running 20, but didn't have enough in the tank to finish 18.7 without walking. Walked the probably half of the last 2 miles. Will get this straightened out, my last scheduled long run is next week.

First time running in any real kind of wind, it's alot harder than I thought. I think cutting calories and carbs this past week hurt me more today than anything else. Will try to eat better and load a little more before next weeks run. It is what it was, but it's not as good as it's gonna be...

September 6

Raining today, this will probably be my off day for the week. I guess I get to clean and do laundry instead.
