August - What a great month!

This month was a peak month for me. I did more this month than any other month to date this year. Is it the weather? My determination? Concentrating on heart rate? Who knows...guess i should figure that out.

For August:
  • 12 runs totaling 42.5 miles
  • 8 rides totaling 74.4 miles
  • 6 walks totaling 7.8 miles
  • weight still 208, lol (how can that be?)
For some, they do that in a week. For me, it is a great feeling to finish a month without an injury ready to hit the next month with vigor and vim. I am truly looking forward to September and what I might accomplish.

Have a great week,

Brad

New Art Work!

Special thanks to Len Peralta, one of the voices behind the great Jawbone Radio podcast.


Update for week ending 8/22/09

Had a good week of workouts.
  • 11.07 miles running
  • 20.01 miles biking
  • Weight 208 lbs.
On Tuesday 8/18, I did a 5.5 mile workout which set me back a little. Shins flared up. I need to stick the steady consistant 3 - 4 mile routine and add distance slowly. Slow and steady win the race...at least in my case.

I started a google group, Roseville Runners, to see if local people would be interested in getting together for the virtual type runs (e.g.World Wide Festival of Races, or the Nike+ Human Race 10K, etc...). We are 2 members strong.

Have a great week!

WOW, Where does the time go?

It seems like just yesterday that I ran the Bay 2 Breakers...but that was over 2 months ago.

As I have shared, I was extremely busy with work. the storm has subsided and now I can get back to a somewhat regular life and schedule.

I only got 3 runs in for the month of June, that is pathetic! July was a better and more consistant month. I look forward to August as a steady training month. I will end the month with a 5k race (Race for the Arts) on Friday, August 28 in Sacramento.

I am looking forward to getting back into doing the podcast and catching up with everyone.

talk to you soon,

Brad
