Day338 some boring stuff
Two more weeks until the end of August. Why is that important? It will be the end of the GVRAT – the Tennessee virtual race. I finished the 1000k challenge back in June and have been dallying around trying to get to the 2000k. For the last two months I put in around 100 miles…

Day324 up ahead
These two weeks have been a pause to life. There was nothing to do. More like nothing I want to do. After the race, all the pressure is gone. I looked back at it a bit. There is a guy who is going to attempt it in six weeks (last weekend of August). I too…

Day315 race day
By the time this post is published, I should be near the end of my run, probably 24 hours into it. There will be a proper race report after I get enough sleep – either I finish it or I DNF (not finish) halfway. Pretty much the same theme from previous posts. I couldn’t really…

Day313 – last minute
Nothing much was done today. All that I planned didn’t come into fruition. I’m racing against the clock on many fronts. FedEx print center, last night I checked they were open late but tonight I went there they were closed. They have the new limited hours from 10-6. So I will have to go there…

Day302 crawling
The day is crawling by. I was caught in the rain last night. I got my move back and ran 10 miles. It started raining at mile 5 and I had to head back. I checked the forecast then and it was showing the heaven is going open up. So I took shelter in the…

Day296 holding pattern
I’m still in a holding pattern, being lazy to do anything on everything. Next Next Friday is supposed to be my June race in Pennsylvania, which was already canceled, but I plan to go and run the trail any way. It is supposed to be very hard. Yet, I have done zero planning. Where will…

day280 Fall plan, 24 hr run likely
I got another email of a race being canceled or moved to a virtual race. I elected to do it virtually. This race, Parks Half Marathon, is scheduled for early September, but the race organizer couldn’t secure the necesssry permits for it at this time due to all the closings. It is possible that by…

Day267 run summary
Week14 Nothing spectacular this week. I ran less frequently than I should. I couldn’t remember what held me back. Maybe, because my running usually occurred during dinner time and this week I lost it to my appetite. I have gained couple pounds. I really need to push my running to the morning. Monday-Friday: none Saturday:…

day262 midweek look
I hope to do a post over the weekend, so this is more like a mid week posting for me, but to you readers, it is weekend already. Time flies. While in college, my roommate used to tease me whenever I said time flies. He would ask me to show him how does it fly…

LH3 / LH4 plan
Day 247 Not even sure if there will be a race but the Laurel #3 over night trip is definitely canceled. I got words that Pennsylvania state parks no longer allow camping for the duration. I might still go now my race schedule for April and May has pretty much free up. I might go…
