  • Seem to be going faster, though the effort level doesn't seem to be increased. I'll be sure to go slower the next couple of days so I don't tire myself out before Sunday's race. [6 mi @ 7:29 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 11/19/2008
  • Felt light headed on the way out, but things cleared up in the final miles. [6 mi @ 7:34 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 11/18/2008
  • Started out in the upper 20s but warmed up to the low 40s by the time I finished. I was definitely overdressed for this run. [16 mi @ 8:26 min/mi]
    16 mile run on 11/16/2008
  • First snow of the year and I was running in it. Nothing stuck to the ground, but it was interesting to see. [10 mi @ 7:56 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 11/15/2008
  • Had to talk to a guy shooting arrows off of his deck in the direction of the path I was running on. He claimed he was being "very safe" but I still don't see how shooting arrows in the dark can be mistaken as safe. [6 mi @ 7:30 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 11/13/2008
  • The moon was very bright tonight, so much so that shadows were being cast. I saw one person tonight, but they were walking and smoking, so I'm not sure what exercise routine they were following... [6 mi @ 7:28 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 11/12/2008
  • Warmer morning than I thought it was going to be. Felt a little over-dressed. [6 mi @ 7:55 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 11/12/2008
  • Run in the dark, cold, rainy night. No one else on the asphalt trail, even though two weeks ago I would typically see 20 - 30 people throughout the run. [6 mi @ 7:39 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 11/10/2008
  • The cold air is making it harder to run, harder than usual anyways. At least the weather pattern is changing now, so hopefully I can adjust and adapt to it. I need to remember to keep drinking my fluids even though it's cold out. [14 mi @ 8:34 min/mi]
    14 mile run on 11/9/2008
  • Had to cut this run short as I felt sick after only four miles. That's Ok though... I'm going to run long on Sunday to try and get my body used to that for the upcoming race. [8 mi @ 8:18 min/mi]
    8 mile run on 11/8/2008
  • Only saw one other person on the trail tonight, a result of the time change. Too bad though, just because its dark doesn't mean you don't need to exercise... [6 mi @ 7:31 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 11/7/2008
  • Took a couple of days off after the tightness in my left foot. Felt a little better today. [10.2 mi @ 7:50 min/mi]
    10.2 mile run on 11/6/2008
  • Feeling a little pain on the top of my left foot. This started happening almost a week after my left leg/knee stopped hurting, so I wonder if they are related. When I walk the pain is nonexistent. I'm going to take a day off and see how things play out on Wednesday's 10 miler. [4 mi @ 7:31 min/mi]
    Evening 4 mile run on 11/3/2008
  • A humid morning in November in Kansas? Very strange. Ran an out and back, running into the wind on the way back. I am enjoying the time change, as my body thought it got to sleep in a bit this morning. [8 mi @ 8:03 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 11/3/2008
  • Happy Birthday to me. What a great day to discover more trails! I started this run thinking that I would go out seven or eight miles and turn around, but then I found where the trail picked back up and followed it for another few miles. It will be nice to have a 20+ mile route without having to run through intersections. [20 mi @ 8:30 min/mi]
    20 mile run on 11/1/2008
  • Walking with Kristen and our dogs. [4.5 mi @ 17:46 min/mi]
    4.5 mile walk on 10/31/2008
  • A short run on my day off. [4 mi @ 7:36 min/mi]
    4 mile run on 10/31/2008
  • Trying to get used to running in the morning again. I really didn't want to wake up, but at least it wasn't too cold. [8 mi @ 8:17 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 10/30/2008
  • Another quick run. I think the taper before the marathon and the easy week after the marathon helped me more than just allowing me to recover. [10 mi @ 7:35 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 10/29/2008
  • Another good day. I'm wondering if this whole knee injury thing is behind me. It's fun to pass someone after you've run seven of eight miles and you can tell they're running a fast pace... :) [8 mi @ 7:25 min/mi]
    8 mile run on 10/28/2008
  • Felt horrible before I ran, but now I feel great. Coldest day of the year so far, but not quite cold enough for tights. [6 mi @ 7:31 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/27/2008
  • A quick run between a (losing) Chiefs football game and a pumpkin carving party. [6 mi @ 7:30 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/26/2008
  • I was starting to feel guilty about how little I've run this week, but then I remembered that I ran a marathon last weekend! This finishes my "easy" week, and I should be getting back on track with my mileage next week. [10 mi @ 7:56 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 10/25/2008
  • A good run in the cool weather. I think that my leg is recovering nicely with the limited miles this week. [6 mi @ 7:48 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/23/2008
  • On a business trip again. I had to piece together a few routes to get up to 10 miles, but managed come up with a route. [10 mi @ 8:07 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 10/22/2008
  • Stretching the legs a little; I need to be careful not to go too fast! This weekend's marathon was everything I had hoped to experience from the event, and I'm still feeling the high from finishing with a positive attitude. [6 mi @ 7:27 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/20/2008
  • A short run to stretch my legs a little after yesterday. Felt good. [2.7 mi @ 8:07 min/mi]
    2.7 mile run on 10/19/2008
  • The time I put in is gun time; I'm not sure what the chip time is yet. All in all a good run. My left leg wanted to cramp up a little when I was pushing harder, but if I backed off it was Ok. First leg was run at about 10 - 10:15 pace (6.7 miles) Second leg was run at about 8:20 - 8:45 pace (through 13.7) Third leg was run at about 9:20 - 10:00 pace (through 20.6) Final leg was run anywhere from 8:30 - 10:00 pace. Running the different legs of the race with my family was certainly helpful, a [26.2 mi @ 9:59 min/mi]
    KC Marathon on 10/18/2008
  • An easy run to get the blood flowing in my legs the day before the marathon. Today showed good progress for my left leg. To better describe the difference between today and Wednesday morning I'm going to use a scale from 0 to 10, 0 being no pain, 10 being "my leg is cut off." On Wednesday I was at a 4, and today I felt like I was at a 0.5. I could feel a little bit of something, but since I was going so easy today it didn't turn into anything. Very good news in time for tomorrow. [3 mi @ 8:20 min/mi]
    Pre-marathon 3 mile run on 10/17/2008
  • I think it rained an inch or more in the time it took me to run five miles, all of which was into a very strong headwind. It seemed that the rain let up a little two miles after my turnaround point. Fortunately the wind was at my back as I finished the run. My left leg is still bothering me, though I will say it doesn't hurt when I walk (which is different than a couple of weeks ago.) I don't know if that's a good sign or not. It feels as if the muscles on either side of my lower leg are f [10 mi @ 8:22 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 10/15/2008
  • My left knee is still bothering me. It will be interesting to see how things turn out on Saturday. [6 mi @ 7:47 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/13/2008
  • A misty day in the 60s. [6 mi @ 7:56 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/13/2008
  • A training run for next week's race. I ran the first seven with Kristen at her pace, then the next seven at my pace to simulate the relay. Hard to believe that I managed to get a sunburn in the middle of October. [14 mi @ 9:51 min/mi]
    14 mile run on 10/11/2008
  • Took off early today since we had to work late last night and ran 12 miles instead of vegging in front of the tv. Now its time to veg. :) [12 mi @ 7:46 min/mi]
    12 mile run on 10/9/2008
  • Getting back in the groove after a short couple of weeks. Consistent running with a few long days thrown in the middle seems to be working best for me. [10.15 mi @ 7:57 min/mi]
    10.15 mile run on 10/7/2008
  • My left leg felt tight and weak, but loosened up after the first three miles. [6 mi @ 7:49 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/6/2008
  • Ran to the library with my little yorkie. She loves to run fast, but doesn't know the concept of pacing. Kristen picked her up from the library and I ran back home. [6.2 mi @ 7:54 min/mi]
    6.2 mile run on 10/5/2008
  • This past week messed with my running schedule and apparently also my endurance. These miles felt harder than they should, so I'm glad I made this run shorter than I had originally planned. [13.1 mi @ 8:20 min/mi]
    13.1 mile run on 10/4/2008
  • Back from my business trip; it's good to run on familiar trails. [6 mi @ 7:39 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 10/3/2008
  • I was going for 8, but felt tired. Long week at work is finally catching up to me. [6.2 mi @ 7:49 min/mi]
    6.2 mile run on 10/2/2008
  • For some reason my Garmin is having trouble picking up a signal in this area. Getting in late last night didn't give me enough time to scout out today's run, so I guessed an out and back and ended up a quarter mile short, hence the strange total distance. [7.7 mi @ 7:53 min/mi]
    Morning 7.7 mile run on 10/1/2008
  • Didn't run yesterday due to business travel and a late night installing servers. Mapped out this morning's run before I went to bed last night, and after running it I think the route will be safe while I'm away from home. [6 mi @ 7:51 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 9/30/2008
  • A long run after a fairly short week. My knee/left leg felt Ok, and I ran a fairly consistent pace. Other than a pit stop at our local Doubletree Hotel, the run was uneventful, which is good. [20.28 mi @ 8:19 min/mi]
    20.28 mile run on 9/27/2008
  • Taking it easy today again. Trying to be careful with my left leg. During the run it felt fine, but afterwards my knee/calf area hurt when I was walking around. [6 mi @ 9:00 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/26/2008
  • My left leg hurts when I walk, so I didn't run yesterday's afternoon session. It felt better today, so I went out at an easy pace, making sure not to break 8:00 min miles, but also staying ahead of a 9:00 min mile pace. Feel Ok now, but need to see how I do tomorrow. [6 mi @ 8:24 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/24/2008
  • So, I can barely walk, but when I run I feel fine. I'm sure that's not normal, so I'll keep an eye on it. [8 mi @ 8:33 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 9/23/2008
  • A 12 mile run on Monday?! I skipped yesterday due to an achey knee and felt guilty about it, so I decided to move Tuesday's run to today, and Sunday's run to Tuesday (split up in an 8 and 7 mile run) and Monday's run on Friday (which was originally scheduled to be an off day and will now be 6 miles.) Whew! At least I can rationalize my laziness on Sunday. :) [12 mi @ 7:45 min/mi]
    12 mile run on 9/22/2008
  • I certainly felt the two weeks I took off from running a "long run." I have to be careful though not to peak too early for my October marathon, and leave enough juice in the tank for my November marathon. [20 mi @ 8:44 min/mi]
    20 mile run on 9/20/2008
  • Taking the day off from work today was a good idea. [6 mi @ 7:45 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/19/2008
  • Felt a little tired from last night but was able to get up and run. I plan on going to bed earlier tonight to catch up on some sleep. [6 mi @ 8:06 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 9/18/2008
  • I think the new shoes are definitely paying off. Tonight I felt like I got in a rhythm and it just felt easy. Couple that feeling with the time I logged and this run was almost perfect. The one down side was that I had to work two hours late, so my evening was pretty much shot. [10.25 mi @ 7:29 min/mi]
    10.25 mile run on 9/17/2008
  • Good short afternoon run. [4 mi @ 7:22 min/mi]
    Evening 4 mile run on 9/16/2008
  • Faster pace than I wanted but I also only planned on doing six this morning. Guess I'm curious just to see how I'll run with the new shoes. [8 mi @ 7:43 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 9/16/2008
  • Finally got my new pair of shoes after putting nearly 600 miles on the last pair. I was feeling tweaks and pains from even the most casual run towards the end that I decided not to run my two long runs on Saturday and Sunday in an effort of preservation. Now with my new shoes and fresh legs AND awesome weather I seemed to bang out a pretty decent time. I just need to be careful to not push as hard as I did last week so I'm ready for a 20 miler by the end of the week. [6 mi @ 7:19 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/15/2008
  • Rainy day, easy run. [8 mi @ 8:37 min/mi]
    8 mile run on 9/13/2008
  • A short run for the evening. [4 mi @ 7:49 min/mi]
    Evening 4 mile run on 9/11/2008
  • Legs felt heavy today and it was very humid. [8 mi @ 8:39 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 9/11/2008
  • I didn't prepare mentally for this run and paid the price. I ended up with a decent time, but I think that was mostly because I was able to focus more on the run in the later miles. [10 mi @ 8:04 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 9/10/2008
  • Nice run in the afternoon. [4 mi @ 7:19 min/mi]
    Evening 4 mile run on 9/9/2008
  • A longer run this morning so my evening run can be shorter. We're buying new shoes tonight and didn't want to make that trip too late. [8 mi @ 7:56 min/mi]
    Morning 8 mile run on 9/9/2008
  • Fall is here, at least for today. Upper 50s with a light drizzle made this a quick and easy run. [6 mi @ 7:32 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/8/2008
  • This was my evening run. Wanted to get 12 in for the total today so I waited a couple of hours after the Chiefs lost and went for another easy 6 miler. This was a bit faster than I had wanted, but I didn't feel like I was pushing, so hopefully no damage was done. [6 mi @ 7:38 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 9/7/2008
  • This was my morning run. I took yesterday off of running because of a nagging pain, my garmin wasn't working, I ate something that was still disagreeing with me, and other reasons. Usually I can ignore one or two of those things, but it seemed the odds were stacked against me so I chose to rest some more on my rest week. This was an easy six miles I was able to get in before we had to go to church. I think this might become a Sunday ritual, six (or more) before church, then watching football [6 mi @ 7:53 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 9/7/2008
  • Took yesterday off. Sometimes I have days where running is the last thing I want to do and yesterday was one of those days. Today's run was a quick run (for a morning run) in the fog. [6 mi @ 7:55 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 9/5/2008
  • A coldish (60s) rainy windy day made for a lonely day on the trail. Felt good though. [6 mi @ 7:32 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 9/3/2008
  • A 20+ mph headwind on the way out reminded me that the coming Winter weather won't always be great and that I should enjoy the heat while it is here. Heading back was nice. [6 mi @ 8:08 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 9/3/2008
  • Ran the first five miles at a fast clip (7:20/miles) then ran a little with Kristen as she was on the trail. Felt good after taking Sunday and Monday off. [7.5 mi @ 9:11 min/mi]
    7.5 mile run on 9/2/2008
  • Glad I was able to get through this run without my leg cramping up again. Felt a little tightness around mile 5, and again at the 14 mile mark, but that was it. I stopped at a Walgreens for some Gatorade late in my run. The clerk didn't seem pleased that I was dripping sweat in her store. :) [22 mi @ 8:51 min/mi]
    22 mile run on 8/30/2008
  • This week's runs are starting to catch up to me. I was very tired today. I'll be sure to get to bed early tonight so I'm fresh for tomorrow's long run. [6 mi @ 8:36 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/29/2008
  • Wow. It was hot and humid today, with a lot of thunder and lightning. It rained a little, but too late in the run to make any benefit. [6 mi @ 8:20 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/28/2008
  • This morning I had a dream that I woke up and ran. Then I actually woke up and felt a little dejected that the great run I experienced was only in my head. Plus I was twenty minutes late! Oh well, let's just hope that doesn't become a new habit. [6 mi @ 8:19 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/28/2008
  • Stopped to stretch after seven miles. Helped my calf in the for the remaining miles. [10.2 mi @ 8:20 min/mi]
    10.2 mile run on 8/27/2008
  • This was a good second run for the day. Ran a decent pace but didn't really feel like I was going very fast. [6 mi @ 7:42 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/26/2008
  • I think I'm starting to get used to these morning runs. Nice and crisp this morning, I ran through the neighborhood before hitting the streets. Whatever animal I crossed paths with on Thursday last week made a lasting impression and I don't want to try my luck again. [6 mi @ 8:06 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/26/2008
  • Not exactly how I imagined the weekend to go, but I did get my 30 miles in. I would say I achieved 80 - 90% of the desired workout total with the way I split the miles up. On this run I felt a little pang of cramping around mile 7 but was able to back off before it became too serious. I'll take tomorrow off and hopefully be back in order by Tuesday. [10 mi @ 8:24 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 8/24/2008
  • Testing out my left calf after yesterday's incident. Everything seems to be Ok other than a little tightness. [4.2 mi @ 7:34 min/mi]
    4.2 mile run on 8/24/2008
  • Second run of the day, with my wife and in-laws. [4.5 mi @ 10:26 min/mi]
    4.5 mile run on 8/23/2008
  • This was going to be a 20-miler but I suffered a calf cramp around mile 7. After a few miles of it not going away I called for help. Hopefully I can make up the mileage throughout the rest of the day. [11.3 mi @ 9:22 min/mi]
    11.3 mile run on 8/23/2008
  • Hot again. Supposed to be humid tomorrow too. Summer's not done yet! [6 mi @ 9:09 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/22/2008
  • Tired today. I'll sleep in a bit tomorrow which should help a lot. Physically I feel fine, no nagging injuries at the moment, which is a good thing. [6 mi @ 8:30 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/21/2008
  • It was misting this morning, which made the run nice and refreshing. Still taking it easy on the pace to compensate for the additional miles this week. [6 mi @ 8:23 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/21/2008
  • This started out as a nice easy run, but turned into a progression run. Original pace was 8:15/mile for the first five miles, then I made up a lot of that time on the way back. [10 mi @ 8:05 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 8/20/2008
  • Felt a little light headed today, but that may be caused by the early morning today. [6 mi @ 7:30 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/19/2008
  • A nice cool morning. [6 mi @ 7:51 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/19/2008
  • A good run the day following a long run. [10.1 mi @ 7:44 min/mi]
    10.1 mile run on 8/17/2008
  • A little slower than I would have liked, but it has been a little over a month since I last ran 20 miles. Didn't feel dead tired when I finished though, so at least I have that. [20 mi @ 9:24 min/mi]
    20 mile run on 8/16/2008
  • Looking forward to tomorrow's long run. [6 mi @ 7:49 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/15/2008
  • Legs felt heavy but felt better overall compared to the last two days of running. [6 mi @ 7:53 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/14/2008
  • A little slow today; had some stomach problems in the last two miles. [6 mi @ 9:09 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/14/2008
  • Feeling tired after this week's runs. Hoping tomorrow I will feel better. [10 mi @ 8:48 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 8/13/2008
  • Felt a little dizzy half-way through the run. I think a cold might be in my future. [6 mi @ 7:48 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/12/2008
  • Woke up a little earlier this morning so I wasn't as rushed as last week. I like running in the morning and again in the evening, as it's allowing me to get a lot of miles in with less of a time commitment at night. [6 mi @ 8:17 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/12/2008
  • Felt a little tired and tight after a long week and rest day, but got into a good rhythm by the end. [6 mi @ 7:36 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/11/2008
  • A nice cool morning with a few sprinkles throughout the run. I can only think of one of the many intersections I ran through where I actually had to stop for traffic. All in all a good day. [16.25 mi @ 8:36 min/mi]
    16.25 mile run on 8/9/2008
  • Another nice day. It was actually chilly for the first couple of miles, which was a breath of fresh air. [6 mi @ 7:45 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/8/2008
  • Today was a great day for running. 88 degrees with a cool breeze. Absolutely perfect. [8 mi @ 7:51 min/mi]
    8 mile run on 8/7/2008
  • Felt a little twinge in my right leg. Felt better than I did this morning. [6 mi @ 7:49 min/mi]
    Evening 6 mile run on 8/6/2008
  • Felt a little better this morning. I'll be interested to see how I feel running this evening. [6 mi @ 8:54 min/mi]
    Morning 6 mile run on 8/6/2008
  • My legs felt wobbly, which is very weird. I wonder if I'm still tired from yesterday's 12 miles, with the last six in 100+ heat. [6 mi @ 9:00 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/5/2008
  • 93/73 Felt like 103 Hot. Not too tired from this morning's run, but the heat slowed me down quite a bit. [6 mi @ 9:15 min/mi]
    6 mile run number 2 on 8/4/2008
  • 78/69 Felt good. The poison ivy is now two large open wounds, and the sweat hurt a little as I was running. I think it will start healing soon. [6 mi @ 8:07 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/4/2008
  • 76/72 Miserable running day, and it just kept getting hotter and hotter. [10 mi @ 9:00 min/mi]
    10 mile run on 8/2/2008
  • 70/69 Felt better than I did yesterday, just a little tired from waking up earlier than usual. [6 mi @ 8:09 min/mi]
    6 mile run on 8/1/2008
  • 84/74 My legs felt funny after two days of great weather and good times, so I called it a day after 4 miles. We have an "extreme heat advisory" in effect through Monday evening, so the weekend should be fun. [4.13 mi @ 8:42 min/mi]
    4.2 mile run on 7/31/2008

    10.65 miles on 6/20/2008
  • A nice run during a sever thunderstorm watch. The weather actually brought a nice cold front and some rain, which felt very nice. My right knee feels a little "loose", so I'm glad tomorrow will be my last day this week. One more day! [10 mi @ 8:05 min/mi]
