Day474 Runner Block
The last 5-6 weekends, I have been running a marathon every week. Some were races and some were training runs. This weekend, I had a lot of time or maybe something inline with being lazy or simply my body crashed. I ended up not doing anything. I have been increasing my volume on my training […]

Day473 Impromptu race
TL:DR; Ended up running in a nameless race overnight last weekend. The race was called 24-hr Adventure Trail Run by Athletic-Equation, but that is a generic name. My plan for the weekend was to go to the MMT race course to have one more practice after finishing the Easter Chocolate Bunny night run. But by […]

Day468 – life goes on
I’m ok. Nothing much to write about. Briefly, back/leg is still giving me problem. I am improving. Maybe 10% better than last week. Not a huge jump but the pain has lessened to an inconvenience numb. Probably seeing a doctor is the right course of action. The Sunday 10K didn’t aggravate the injury. I could […]

Day465 and so it begins
Nothing much happened for me last week. I might as well take the week off for a mental health break. And I did, from running that is. I blame the booster shot. It made me super tired and unmotivated. I was better though by the end of the week but I did not run. Running […]

Day463 burning the midnight oil & BRR TR2
This week was unproductive. There was a bit on my plate and I was worried over stuff at work. A few years ago, I wouldn’t believe I would have panic attacks because I was usually carefree happy go lucky. But now many little things would bother me and it is hard to focus at times […]

Day462 up ahead – some decisions
I was debating at the beginning of the week if I should sign up for some local races. The answer should have been a “quick, sign me up!” I don’t know any more. I am not what I once was. I am less incline to rush into a race even if it is free. By […]

Day461 for the joy
After couple weeks of running in bad weather and super cold temperature, for once we are back to decent running condition (today was 6 C when I went for my run). I think spring is near! I realized, I like running when it is super cold. Somehow it helped knowing it is super cold and […]

Day457 New year Day 2
New Year Resolutions / What I want for Christmas Time goes by so fast. Couple months ago, I was training life-and-death for my biggest race at the time. I was in a rock and a hard place…due to many things coming together at the same time. Of course, I could just walk away and not […]

Day454 WTF stop cussing
Finally after all the training and races, I did not run much since. I guess it was a well needed rest for my mind and body. I went into running as a recreation to get away from the stress at work, but running had taken over my life and itself became a stressor. Kind a […]
