10/10/2007 (Wed) - RUN

Finally the weather is breaking and getting more fall like. It was a beautiful day and I felt like I was pushing on this run. This route has a long .5 mile downhill but a brutal uphill that is maybe a 1/4 mile. I find myself resting way to much at the tops of hills though.

I can remember a day when I could run 3.1 miles in under 18 minutes! That was probably 13 or 14 years ago and I was probably 30 pounds lighter. All i know is, I definitely took it for granted! Running a sub 6 minute mile in a 3 mile race is nothing to laugh at! Especially now!

Back from NJ, Back from being Sick, and a September Recap

Well, being sick and being in NJ got me 4 days off from running and working out. Probably a needed break. If not needed, it was welcome, though the body aches I had were not fun! Atleast the pain and difficulty of running has a pay off! Body aches and waking up in sweats does not! Hopefully those days are behind me now!

Total Miles in September: 39.65 Miles
30 Days in September, so 1.32 average miles per day
Longest Run: 4.10 Miles
Shortest Run: 1.50 Miles

Out of 30 days, I ran 15 times. Thats 2.64 Miles per run.
In September, I spent 337 minutes running. Thats 5 hours and 37 Minutes. 6 hours a month, not such a huge commitment right?

How was YOUR September? ;)

9/30/2007 - RUN

I have been sick and not running or working out. It hasn't been until now that I felt good enough or any desire to update my blog! I ran on Sunday and about a couple hours later things started going downhill (except of course for the Phillies). My run was good:

3.30 Miles
27:34 Minutes - 8:21 mile avg

Total Miles 2007: 89.10 Miles

All in all, September was a pretty good month....

Off to NJ for work tomorrow so I won't be running or working out, back to work on Thursday.
