It's been a looooong time

      Well it's been a really long time but I'm back to riding and running. The summer was pretty much a bust but it was worth it. I took a lot of time off and fixed a bunch of nagging pains I had in my body. I survived the fracture and am back to base building, again. I'm currently around 18-20mpw right now. I'm just glad to be back on the road running and riding again and hopefully I can go longer than a year without injuring myself. Well till next time.

Out for a while

While trying to remove a DVD player from a TV I managed to drop said TV on my foot. Seems I'm out of a lot of activities for a couple of months. Luckily it was just a small break and nothing serious. I guess I'll know better next time.. Newho.. here's a picture of the offending limb,



So I guess I'm not gonna put up a whole lot until I get better...till then..

Running after time off

I've taken the last few weeks off for the pain that I've been having in my rear. I had an interesting ride last week and found out that my saddle height has been plaguing me with this pain. Fixed that and guess what? no pain. Well the local beach run series started this week and I really wanted to get in a few of them. After running a few miles yesterday pain free I figured I'd at least go in and get a race out of the way. I had no real intention of trying to put in a serious time but I guess it doesn't always work that way. I started out way to fast, 1st mile around 7 something and I knew I needed to slow down. I just locked in a nice pace and set in for the last 2 miles. Finished at 24:03. 10 seconds slower than Myrtle Beach but not bad for having taken off the last few weeks. Just got to start getting the miles back in. It feels so good to be running again.
