Ran a GREAT 8 miles on Saturday morning before we headed off to my Alma Mater (Auburn) to watch a football game. I started off slow and easy for the first three miles. Ran around 12:30 to 13:00 min. miles. After the first three and a Clif shot, I picked up that pace to 12:10…

Since I recently moved and have been tracking places to run in my new town, and since we know few people here, I thought it might be handy to have a Road ID with my contact info, medical info, and such. After I placed my order, I was sent a friends discount code for Road…

Sorry to keep giving you countdown status. But we’ve been making our reservations and dining arrangements for Disney Marathon weekend. I have felt re-energized. Don’t know if it is the weather, finally getting over the move, or what, but this has been my strongest week of running since the early summer. Friday was a great…

The Disney Marathon is a mere 148 days away. I feel better about running. We’ve had an atypical low-humidity-low-temp spell in northeastern Alabama. So, I’ve a pretty good string of runs. Today I ran a 6-miler on the Chief Ladiga Trail (pictured above) (follow this link to read about rails-to-trails: http://epic.jsu.edu/clt/). This is a flat…

The dog days are here. Heat and hiumidity make it hard to run. New job and moving stuff makes it hard to get up at 5:30. Slept in yesterday on the coolest day of summer that was perfect for a Sunday long run. But slug that I am, hit snooze and slept in. So, last…

I ran the Woodstock 5K yesterday (August 2) in Anniston, Alabama. Anniston is 10 miles south of Jacksonville (where I live now) and has an active running community. This is the signature running event in the area and the race this year was the regional 5K championship race and will next year be the national…

It has been a pretty hectic two weeks. We moved into our new house, went straight to the beach, and then returned to our new home and town to unpack. It has been 4 days since we returned. I’ve also had no Internet access save for the local coffee shop where I get about an…

With the move to a new state and all the stress of selling a house, I underestimated how tired I have been lately. I had a nice 6.5 miles run on Sunday morning, but couldn’t get out of bed from Mon thru Wed to run before the hot beach sun rose. Mind you, I have…

Enjoying the World’s Most Beautiful Beaches at Panama City, FL. Here is a pic of my view from my beach chair. Good run today, 6.5 miles, then the sun came up and it got HOT.

The move to Alabama went as well as I could have hoped. We got everything in the house on Tuesday and did little else. No beds were set up, no boxes unpacked. We secured the house and then left for the beach. I am looking out my window at the white sands of the Florida…
