Week 60: Day 1

cardio:
  • bike ride (@ 11:15am) = 3 miles
There's no karate training tonight because it's Halloween and most likely no one will show up for class. I thought about running this morning, but decided to sleep in and just do a short bike ride instead.

Week 59: Day 7

cardio:
  • trail/raod run (@ 6:40am) = 4.44 miles, time = 50:59, pace @ 11:29
Total Weekly Mileage: 12.48
Totaly Monthly Mileage: 38.45
Total Shoe Mileage: 41.95
Total Yearly Mileage: 461.33

I was disappointed with the temperature/weather this morning. I prefer uncomfortably cold, but it was uncomfortably warm for me this morning instead. What can I do anyway? I live in an area that usually doesn't get uncomfortably cold during the Autumn and Winter seasons, but I suppose I will have to accept it because I don't think I will like running on icy/snowy roads and trails.

Week 59: Day 6

cardio:
  • bike ride (@ 10am) = 3 miles
  • karate (@ 12pm) = 1 hour
I finally found the motivation to do a short bike ride on Saturday mornings. I like the idea of doing some light exercise as a warm up and showing up to karate with properly warmed up legs.

Week 59: Day 5

cardio:
  • trail/road run (@ 6:35am) = 4.36 miles, time = 46:13, pace @ 10:36
Is Summer over yet? Has Autumn finally arrived? Can I now have my 40-something degrees running weather in the morning? It feels like it and I'm enjoying my runs in uncomfortably cold temperatures.

Week 59: Day 4

cardio:
  • trail/road run (@ 6:35am) = 3.68 miles, time = 37:26, pace @ 10:10
This morning felt so much cooler/colder than past days/weeks/months and I loved it! It felt so good to run in cold temperatures and I seem to run faster when it's uncomfortably cold. I hope tomorrow morning is the same, temperature-wise!

Week 59: Day 3

cardio:
  • bike ride (@ 10am) = 3 miles,
  • karate = 2 hours
    • first class = 7pm to 8pm
    • second class = 8pm to 9pm
Ahhh, it was slightly drizzly yesterday morning. That made me want to go back to bed, so I actually didn't run yesterday. Tomorrow's weather looks better and it doesn't look like it will be cloudy and/drizzly. I have more motivation to run when it's sunny.

Week 59: Day 1

cardio:
  • bike ride (@ 11:15am) = 3 miles
  • karate (@ 7pm) = 1 hour
With it being overcast in the morning lately, let's hope that I actually find the motivation to run. Cool, overcast mornings make me want to sleep more.
