summer heating up

*All reporting of weekly mileage should now be to the comment section of the blog.


It's great to see all the posts with your mileage and other comments.  No doubt, the heat and humidity are cranking up in the south after a mild start through early July.  As we've said before, just run how you feel and don't worry about the pace of your runs.  It's ok to be slower than when you're back at school, getting the volume in is the primary goal at this stage of training.

  1. 58.4 kilometers. Ran with Zane everyday since Tuesday and a couple other people here and there. Trying to avoid the heat by running either in the am or around 6-7 at night.

  8. 65 miles last week. I felt strong all week and have been getting a gratuitous amount of sleep. I'm looking forward to August and beyond with enthusiasm.

  9. 0 miles last week. Saw a orthopedic surgeon and he told me that I have peronial tendonitis (I already knew that). He also told me to take off running, stretch a lot more, and crosstrain for the week until my foot was pain-free when I walked around. Foot feels awesome now and I ran a really nice, painfree 6 miles today at the river. Goal for this week will be between 16-18 miles

  14. 52. I took a day off this week also because I had a weird work schedule. Had a very good time with HDog in the Big D. She said it was really hot in Dallas...I told her it was because she was here ;) #pickuplines #hotrunsinDallas

  18. 41 miles on the week. Fell short on my mileage due to sickness later in the week. My early week runs were going really well though. The heat is becoming unbearable in Houston. I started my long run at 8:30 on Sunday and it was already 90 degrees out and humid.

  22. A meager 35 in four days. I was overly optimistic about my ability to run while travelling and took off Monday. That mistake won't be made again.

    On the other hand travel was awesome. 1900 km in four days across the North of Spain. We climbed some mountains in three different parts, got lost in the boonies multiple times, ran with the bulls in Pamplona, saw beautiful cathedrals in Zaragoza and Haro, slept four guys in a hatchback for three nights. It was quite the trip.

  23. 50 miles. Zap Fitness running camp was awesome. The perfect area for running in my opinion - wide trails, gradual hills, beautiful scenery, and cool mountain air. Hope to be able to go again next year.

  24. 30 miles last week, 38 miles this week. Running in Italy has been a challenge. Got lost in Palermo and scared my mom half to death. But tomorrow I'm going to a local park in Rome. I'll be home in 3 days.
