Day307 1000k done
Even before I started out for the run I was not sure if I would finish tonight. I had only 16.5 miles left, which is a 0.5 mile less than the previous day, but it was not an easy 16 miler. The original plan was to split the run into two, a morning 5-6 miles…

I was trying to run a bit farther yesterday, but my body gave out after 6 miles. I have been conditioning to do 6 miles every day and yesterday it bonkered on me after 6 miles. I dragged it out to 12. It was hot even at 6 pm! Last weekend I was freezing and…

Day276 the other side
total 7. GVRAT total 83 I thought it would be a quick one. I had on road shoes today instead of trail. For six days I wore trail shoes (my usual get to), but I have been running on road (sidewalks). So today, I said why not switch it up, let wear the road shoes…

day273 weekly run summary
I figure if I post about my GVRAT run every day, my readers will have blog fatigue, so I will go back to my old format of posting an update once a week, like I did for my training run. So this week so far, (Friday to Sunday) total 58 miles. So I will go…

day272 recovery run
Run#3 distance 10 mi, GVRAT 58 mi. I got lazy of measuring the distances on Google Map. I don’t know how to do it from the phone. There is some problem with the live tracking website, so I am running blind now until they fix it. Today run was kind of hard as expected. I…

day270 here I go – rat race
run1 – 6 miles this run. Total traveled for GVRAT so far 6 miles. I found myself something to rally around for next few months. When my Facebook notification popped up from one of my former race directors – with something like this: would you like to run across Tennessee? At first I was skeptical.…
