Week 16: Day 1 - 2012

cardio:

• karate (@ 7pm) = 1 hour

Let's hope I can get into a routine with work and exercise so that I'm not tired all the time.

I think I'm going to start putting up fitness/health articles when I have nothing else to say. I'd probably have something to say if I start doing that?

Week 15: Day 7 - 2012

cardio:

• trail/road run (@ 6:10am) = 6.25 miles; time = 1:06:45 (h:m:s); pace @ 10:41

Total Weekly Mileage: 19.04
Total Monthly Mileage: 44.87
Total Yearly Mileage: 244.47
Total Shoe Mileage: 354.72

I didn't go to karate training yesterday. With this new job, it has gotten me more tired! Hopefully, I'll be less tired during the daytime when I get settled into my new routine/job.

Despite having a hard time getting to sleep early last night, I felt good during the run this morning.

I think I have to get new shoes soon. My current pair is getting up there with the miles and it's getting pretty worn out from all the running that I've been doing.

Week 15: Day 5 - 2012

cardio:

• trail/road run (@ 6:15am) = 5.61 miles, time = 58:47, pace @ 10:29

I completely missed out on the rain! The sky was mostly clear this morning when I was out for my run. There were clouds in the distance, but they stayed away long enough so I could run! An hour after I finished my run, it's now pouring rain! So happy with that!

Week 15: Day 4 - 2012

cardio:

• trail/road run (@ 6:15am) = 4.61 miles, time = 49:27, pace @ 10:44

I ended up going to karate training last night. I recently got a new job and I was unexpectedly put to work last night. Depending on how I feel, I hope to make to karate training on Saturday!

I got to run with a clear, sunny sky this morning. That was nice to see because I thought it would be cloudy/overcast.

Week 15: Day 2 - 2012

cardio:

• hilly trail run (@ 6:40am) = 2.97 miles
• warm up = 0.54
• cool down = 0.15

This morning was cooler/colder than Sunday morning. That was great! Tomorrow may rain, but it's ok because I don't have to run.

Week 15: Day 1 - 2012

cardio:

• bike ride (@ 1:30pm) = 3 miles
• karate (@ 7pm) = 1 hour

Tomorrow may be cooler than today and yesterday. I hope so, so I can enjoy running. It has been low to mid-80 degrees yesterday and today. It feels nice during the daytime and I'm glad that it's not humid and sticky.

Week 14: Day 7 - 2012

cardio:

• trail/road run (@ 6:10am) = 6.7 miles; time = 1:11:07 (h:m:s); pace @ 10:37

Total Weekly Mileage: 19.75
Total Monthly Mileage: 25.83
Total Yearly Mileage: 225.43
Total Shoe Mileage: 345.68

The weather this morning wasn't as bad as I thought because I knew that today would be warm.

During the last mile of my run, my feet started to feel numb. It wasn't so bad that it bothered me and I don't know why I got numbness in my feet from running. I did a 6.6 mile run (different route which also included a semi-challenging hill) a few weeks ago, and I did just fine with the run with no numbness. I didn't do anything different for that run either. I hope that was just today.
