Ran a 12K race this morning. Came in at 59:10. Probably about a top 25% finish.
It was an interesting race. The way it was built, the top half of the 12k race overlapped and ran with the back half of the 5k race for a portion. That was really...interesting.

Yeah. My 5K wasn’t mapped very well either. There were several instances where you had to double back and run into on coming runners. I hate doubling back and prefer a loop. My one OCD habit.

Gives me an idea of where I am with the rest of the field. So that's a plus.

Congrats on the nice races today, guys. Looks like you all did well.

Thanks to y’all for the gift card. It means alot. Went for my first hobbled walk today. Felt good.

My 5K was so small that it didn’t really matter.

Today was technically my first half marathon training run
Just knocked out a 4 miles in Central Park. Holy shite it feels good
Been doing a lot of Intervals to get my pace to below 10 minutes. Still slow and it’s been a grind doing in the Texas heat. Was cruising at around 9:20 minute miles. I know that’s nothing for y’all but for my 200lbs arse it felt good
Can’t wait for fall weather down south.

Speaking of trails, I went out at 5:30 this morning and finished at 6:30. Passed my normal crew as they were headed out. Ran the whole thing in the dark.
They sent me this from the start of the run which I would have had to have missed by a few minutes.

Ran my first 5K race of the fall this morning. Came in at 20:24. Good enough for a PR and first in my age group. I haven’t seen overall final results but I’m guessing I was first of all runners not on a high school cross country team. Pleased with my performance and looking forward to cooler weather. Congrats to everyone else on your races today.

Got 6 this morning. Still fighting this knee/calf issue...seemed more in the calf this time though. I can’t figure it out. Always flares up by mile 3, but I also play soccer twice a week and it never flares up when playing soccer. Got a PT consult scheduled, but not for another week and a half.

That’s a coral baw. Red and Black is a friend of Jack. Red and Yellow will kill a fellow.

frick. You’re right. Wow! I’ve never seen one in person. Pretty rare snake around here. I also didn’t know it ate other snakes. I know I wouldn’t have wanted to step in the middle of that!
Posted on 10/5/19 at 7:32 pm to Aubie Spr96
Results in: 26:08. 5th overall (45). 1st in my age group.

Im going to try to get an easy 6 at 9-9:30 pace in the morning.
I will definitely be taking it easy, last nights run I had some pain flare up. Starting at knee, wrapping around quad and all the way up to my asscheek.

That's crazy. I would have assumed it was a king snake about to get a snack. That's really weird that they are sharing a space like that. Corals will eat other snakes, but that sized rattler seems like a difficult battle.

How is it today?

We’re experiencing some historic rain and thunderstorms today. So much paved and dirt trail washed out and nobody knows it yet. Some places were flat out impassable; millions of dollars in damage I’d imagine.
Still, got a hilly waterlogged three in. Was supposed to do three and a half but said eff that.
Well, hell. just saw the results AS, great job man!

Awesome!
I need to find me a 5k as small as that.

As much as I hate to, I think I might take today off. Its really bothering me just walking around the house, wife is saying sciatic nerve.
I really need to get some better shoes. I have severe overpronation by the wear pattern on my work boots, and I just dont think these Launch 6 have the stability support.
