Treadmill...stock photo is of the giant fiddle in front of the Joan Harris pavilion.
10/8/18 2.00 Miles 34:20 17:10 St. Lawrence River (CA)
Sea day, and rest from Sun long runs. Only walked on the treadmill for a couple of miles, and did some core body work (planks and such)...
10/7/18 8.00 Miles 1:12:10 9:02 Saguenay (CA)
Sunday run Part Deux. Same as the morning... cruisin’
10/7/18 8.00 Miles 1:12:10 9:02 Saguenay (CA)
Breaking up my long run into two halves ‘cause there’s stuff to do out there...will finish in the afternoon.
10/6/18 6.20 Miles 55:00 8:53 Quebec City (CA)
It’s a tad cold here...but not cold enough to watch out for falling icicles (yet).
10/4/18 3.50 Miles 34:45 9:56 Quebec City (CA)
Did not run on this path. Can you tell why?
10/2/18 7.60 Miles 1:00:42 8:00 San Ramon, CA - Cal High Track (US)
Track Tuesday! We had a little rain, big fat drops, but it was refreshing and comfortable. Did a 2+ mile warmup, then 2x 2 mile tempo with 400 meter recovery, and then 1+ mile cool down. Tomorrow is a rest day (jumping on a plane) and then 16 days in Canada/New England/NYC (with a cruise in the middle)...might be a lot of treadmills in my near future!
10/1/18 3.50 Miles 30:10 8:38 Danville, CA (US)
Easy run day. And Fall is here so it’s apple 🍏 picking time (before the squirrels get to them first)...
9/30/18 19.00 Miles 2:45:11 8:42 Danville and San Ramon, CA (US)
Sunday long run after yesterday’s Rocky Ridge 10K. Now time to rest and “cross train” by watching (recorded) Ryder Cup matches.
9/29/18 6.04 Miles 1:00:38 10:03 San Ramon, CA (US)
Rocky Ridge 10K Trail Race, but actually measured 6.04 on my Garmin. 1,900’ elevation (whew!). Ran 35:53 first half (mainly up to the Ridge) and 24:45 on the loop back. Treated this as a training run more or less so did not push it too much. Small field; finished 15th overall (out of only 170) and 1st old guy 55-59 AG.
9/29/18 1.13 Miles 11:37 10:17 San Ramon, CA (US)
Warmup for Rocky Ridge 10K trail race
9/27/18 4.01 Miles 32:32 8:07 Danville, CA (US)
Too much to think about...just run! So I did (around the neighborhood).
9/26/18 5.30 Miles 44:11 8:21 Danville, CA (US)
Evening group run because we need the miles...!
9/26/18 5.00 Miles 42:53 8:35 Danville, CA (US)
Morning run around the neighborhood. Will try to add more miles tonight if it’s not too hot...
9/25/18 7.60 Miles 1:01:31 8:06 San Ramon, CA - Cal High Track (US)
Track Tuesday and full moon! Need to breakout headlamp as we roll into the fall & winter track sessions...at least we still have 50F morning temps, though! Did 5x 1K with 300 meter recovery, and a couple of all out 200s wrap up the session.
9/23/18 17.50 Miles 2:30:17 8:36 Danville/San Ramon, CA (US)
What’s your pre-long run routine? For runs 90+ minutes, i’ll have a banana, fig bar and cup of coffee with a smidge of cocoa sprinkled in...about an hour prior to the run. I skip the fig bar if I’m planning to run less than 90 mins.
9/22/18 3.80 Miles 31:46 8:22 Danville, CA (US)
My training plan called for a 3rd round of intervals today after an already full week of training, cross training (spinning sessions) and some new core work. But I was feeling somewhat fatigued even though Fri was a recovery day so I “reset” to an easy running day. I’m a firm believer in the motto that you train to recover, and that training without the benefits of strength through complete recovery is wasted. Plus, planning on a 2-1/2 hr long run on Sunday. Photo is from the Danville Farmer’s Market after my morning run. The building is the old Danville train depot, which has been restored and is now a history museum. Bob, does Mountain View still have theirs?
9/20/18 5.00 Miles 42:25 8:29 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Late afternoon run...92 degrees so took it indoors. Keep logging those miles. We’re on fire!
9/19/18 4.17 Miles 35:53 8:37 Danville, CA (US)
Did a “double” to add to my morning miles. Wednesday night group run, although you can’t see any of the “group” in this photo. They’re all inside eating pizza and drinking beer.
9/19/18 5.00 Miles 43:09 8:38 Danville, CA (US)
Trying to get more miles out of these legs this week... all for the team! Need to ramp it up these last 10 days!
9/18/18 8.00 Miles 1:02:13 7:47 Cal High Track in San Ramon, CA (US)
Track Tuesday! 1 mile warmup, then 3x 2400 meters with 400 meter recovery. Tossed in a couple of 200s at Kipchoge pace and was totally gassed!
9/16/18 15.20 Miles 2:05:24 8:15 Danville/Alamo, CA (US)
Long run Sunday! Left the house, jumped on the Iron Horse Trail and headed north towards Walnut Creek. You wouldn’t know from the photo, but it was pretty active on the trail...crossed paths with about a dozen of my running buddies during today’s run.
9/15/18 7.00 Miles 53:37 7:40 Danville/San Ramon, CA (US)
This is a “recovery” week in my training plan. Only 4 runs (1 easy, 2 interval, and 1 long). Today was the 2nd interval run: 10 min. warmup, 6x 5 mins intervals with 1 min recovery, then 5-10 min cool down. Photo is of Peet’s Coffee in Danville... a big gathering spot on Saturday morning for all the east bay cyclists 🚴‍♀️ who are in the middle of their long ride.
9/13/18 7.50 Miles 58:20 7:47 Danville/San Ramon, CA (US)
Intervals on the Iron Horse Trail... 5x 6 minutes with 90 second recovery. Barely made it back for a conference call so no “run” photo... only a boring Garmin Connect screenshot!
9/12/18 3.61 Miles 29:35 8:12 Danville, CA (US)
First run post Sunday’s Giant Race Half Marathon
9/9/18 13.16 Miles 1:38:53 7:31 San Francisco, CA (US)
Giant Race Half Marathon. One of those days where you know 5 miles in it’s going to be tough. Did not have my “A” or even “B” game, but somehow still lucked into a podium finish. (Aging up to 55-59 helps. The top three 50-54 times were all in the 1:27 range!) It was a struggle today...
9/9/18 1.50 Miles 15:44 10:30 San Francisco, CA (US)
Cool down jog/walk from ballpark back to hotel, post Giant Race Half
9/9/18 1.17 Miles 10:52 9:18 San Francisco, CA (US)
Warmup for the Giant Race Half Marathon
9/7/18 5.01 Miles 43:05 8:36 Danville, CA (US)
Recovery run. I really need to work on my pacing because I tend to gravitate towards a moderate comfortable pace rather than running a really slow controlled recovery. That’s one reason I sometimes do recovery runs on a treadmill (to “force” maintaining that consistent pace). Getting better, but I need to learn to run these about 30 seconds/mile slower. Whoever said running slow is hard was right! Ran ~ 1.5m on the Iron Horse Trail. (Stock photo.)
9/6/18 7.00 Miles 53:38 7:40 Danville, CA (US)
The days are getting shorter... :-( Barely got this run in. Ran intervals around the Bishop Ranch...10 min warmup, then 3x 8 min at about 7 min pace with 2 min recovery, then ~ 13 min back home at marathon pace (more or less).
9/5/18 5.00 Miles 40:25 8:05 Danville, CA (US)
Racing my shadow. I think it was a tie...
9/4/18 7.00 Miles 54:14 7:45 Cal High Track - San Ramon (US)
Track day! Today’s workout: 1.05 mile warmup, then 3x 1.5 miles (6:54, 6:42 and 6:35 pace) with 300M recovery, and then 1 mile cool down.
9/2/18 13.00 Miles 1:45:42 8:08 Danville to San Ramon, CA (US)
Pulled these little guys off my red pepper plant to toss into my egg scramble after my Sunday long run...
9/1/18 3.66 Miles 30:16 8:17 Danville, CA (US)
Morning run through the neighborhood (Greenbrook “district” of Danville). Like the shirt? 😉
8/31/18 6.74 Miles 54:00 8:01 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Interval workout in our new great fitness center! 10 min warmup, then 3x 10 min moderately hard with 2 min recovery, and 10 min cool down.
8/30/18 5.01 Miles 42:09 8:25 Danville, CA (US)
My first post of the new challenge. Yesterday was for rest, after 3 hard workouts. Had a long work commute today, but beat the setting sun to squeeze in a late easy run around my Danville neighborhood.
8/23/18 6.00 Miles 53:10 8:52 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Treadmill
8/28/18 8.00 Miles 1:05:20 8:10 Cal H.S. Track - San Ramon, CA (US)
Track day! Yasso 800s... 1.28 mile warmup, 8x 800M (run at 6:28 to 6:48 pace) with 400M recovery, and 0.75 mile cool down. Photo is of our “official” track group beer glass...😉
8/26/18 11.26 Miles 2:01:47 10:49 San Ramon, CA (US)
Trail run “trial” before Brazen Rocky Ridge Trail Half at end of Sep. We did 11+ miles today with elevation climb ~ 2,600 feet. (The actual race will have approx. 3,700’ of elevation...)
8/25/18 6.40 Miles 50:23 7:53 Danville, CA (US)
Interval workout on the Iron Horse Trail. 10 min warmup, then 4x 5 min at threshold w/2 min recovery, and cool down 1.7 miles on way home.
8/22/18 4.30 Miles 33:43 7:51 Danville, CA (US)
Speed definitely picking up with no change in effort...training pays off! Photo is of what used to be one of my favorite races in the early fall calendar...but the event (Walnut Festival Run) was disbanded last year...😕
8/21/18 7.00 Miles 55:18 7:54 Cal High Track - San Ramon, CA (US)
Track day! 4x 1200M, 2x 200M, and 2x 100M
8/19/18 10.00 Miles 1:15:52 7:36 Danville to San Ramon, CA (US)
Picked some peppers 🌶 to toss in my scrambled eggs after my run. Nice to see benefits of training kick in this week. Ran the first 3 miles easy (9:15, 8:03, 7:54), then decided to do 3 Miles uncomfortably hard (7:02, 6:45, 6:44), and then last 4 at comfortable hard “Marathon” pace (7:36, 7:18, 7:20, 7:34). Really enjoyed this workout, especially pushing it a little!
8/18/18 5.01 Miles 42:01 8:24 Danville, CA (US)
Sometimes a run surprises you. Last night I had a hard (effort) indoor workout so expected my run this morning to be laborious. Anything but. Legs felt great and full of pep. Photo is in anticipation of my next race, which is the Giant Run (13.1) from the ballpark to the bridge(ish) and back (finish in AT&T).
8/17/18 5.50 Miles 45:15 8:14 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Nice fartlek run in our new gym. Virtual waterfront on the Lifetime Fitness treadmill...
8/15/18 4.20 Miles 35:16 8:24 Danville, CA (US)
8/13/18 7.00 Miles 55:37 7:57 San Ramon, CA - Cal High Track (US)
Tuesday track! 4 sets of 3x 400 meters. Laps in Each set run at 10K, 5K and mile pace, with 200 meter recovery. Added a couple of hard 200s at the end of the four sets.
8/13/18 5.01 Miles 45:00 8:59 Avon,CO (US)
8/11/18 4.20 Miles 37:28 8:56 Avon, CO (US)
Exploring some of the trails around this ski town. Found this one along the river.
8/10/18 5.30 Miles 45:25 8:35 Avon, CO (US)
Jumped on the treadmill this morning. Will explore the trails around Avon and Vail the rest of the weekend...
8/8/18 4.30 Miles 35:43 8:19 Danville, CA (US)
Really enjoyable morning run on my neighborhood loop. Traveling tomorrow to Vail so this might be my last run & post before we complete our quest. So, in that light, I am uploading a photo of a picture I found in my dad’s old study last weekend when I was visiting my mom. (He passed away almost 4 yrs ago.) This photo has nothing to do with today’s run. Or, in some respect, maybe it has everything to do with it. Bob, I suspect you might’ve been involved a little in this merchandising!
8/7/18 6.20 Miles 48:28 7:50 Cal High School - San Ramon, CA (US)
Track day! We have this crazy tradition where you run a speed mile (all out) sometime during your birthday month, and the rest of us pace you. Today we celebrated the birthday of a young guy (28) who is also pretty fast. Gulp. So the pacers ran it as a relay. I had lap 3, which we covered in a smidge over 76 seconds and he finished his mile at 5:22. (1:26, 1:24, 1:16, and 1:16)...Holy smokes! Photo is of our runner (middle), pacers and the timer.
8/6/18 4.01 Miles 33:07 8:16 Danville, CA (US)
It might take a super power and a little more sweat, but we’ll get to our round the world goal. So close!
8/5/18 7.50 Miles 01:03:15 8:26 Alpine, CA (US)
Little late posting because I was “off the grid” east of San Diego. Temp was almost 80 and rising when I hit the road at 8:30. Lots of rolling hills and definitely started feeling heat sapped towards the end. So of course refueled with a soy latte, extra hot, afterwards...
8/4/18 2.20 Miles San Diego, CA (US)
Trip down south to visit my 95 yr. old mother. (Thx for the genes!) Walked from airport to downtown for a quick breakfast.
8/3/18 5.40 Miles 45:10 8:22 Danville, CA (US)
The plan was for a 45 minute fartlek run. Too hot and air quality was bad so I transitioned into an easy run for the last 22 mins. Could actually smell smoke from all the Northern California 🔥...! (There is supposed to be a mountain behind those foothills...where did it go?!?)
8/1/18 5.01 Miles 43:35 8:42 Danville, CA (US)
Did 2.21 miles in the morning and 2.8 miles in the evening. Eaaaaaasssssy.....
7/31/18 7.00 Miles 58:45 8:24 California High School - San Ramon, Ca (US)
Track day! About 20+ runners, although most had left before the group photo. Today’s workout was Yasso 800s and I tossed in a couple of 200s at the end. Not much left in my legs after Sunday’s long run up Mt. Diablo, but tried to slog through it. This is a “recovery” week so looking forward to my upcoming easy runs, and a “short” long run (60 mins) over the weekend...then the intensity of the workouts picks up again.
7/29/18 13.00 Miles 02:02:41 9:27 Mt. Diablo - Danville, CA (US)
Ran about halfway up the mountain with this crew. All that “haze” is from the fires up in Redding... could smell the smoke when we were at the higher elevations. Yikes! Tomorrow, I rest!
7/28/18 3.21 Miles 28:36 8:55 Danville, CA (US)
Fortunate to have these little green belt areas sprinkled throughout my neighborhood for running/walking! Little shakeout run to keep the blood flowing after last night’s treadmill interval workout and tomorrow’s Mt. Diablo long run (with ~ 1,600’ elevation).
7/27/18 6.50 Miles 51:45 7:58 Crunch Gym - Blackhawk, CA (US)
Did my workout at the gym tonight. 10 min warmup, 3x 10 min at threshold pace with 2 min recovery, and then 5+ min cool down. Billy Joel tribute band playing over the fountain in the background. (Fri summer concert series.)
7/26/18 4.20 Miles 33:07 7:54 Danville, CA (US)
Little windy this morning, which was ok ‘cause it’s helping to cool things down. Focused on short forward stride, really quick turnover and powering from my glutes throughout push off...almost like exaggerating a horse’s prance...probably looked a little funny to passers by...!
7/25/18 5.10 Miles 44:49 8:48 Danville, CA (US)
Easy lope around the neighborhood loop, including a mile on the Iron Horse Trail (but not this section). #StockPhoto
7/24/18 6.10 Miles 45:36 7:29 San Ramon, CA (US)
Track day! Workout was 10 min warmup, followed by 25+ mins tempo, and 1 mile cool down.
7/22/18 4.21 Miles 38:19 9:07 Capitola, CA (US)
Cool down after Wharf to Wharf Race. Ran back to Santa Cruz with fellow teammate Jen and some of her SF Impala running club friends.
7/22/18 6.01 Miles 40:50 6:48 Santa Cruz, CA (US)
A little bit humid. Rolling course can be deceptive, but great views, big crowds and fast downhill finish are your rewards. 16K runners and lots of fast elites, college, high school, and running club racers make this a competitive field. Top 100 get a W2W jacket; cutoff this year (i.e., #100) was 34:35 (5:45 pace) for the men and 40:50 (6:48 pace) for women!
7/22/18 1.24 Miles 11:11 9:02 Santa Cruz, CA (US)
Warmup for Wharf to Wharf
7/20/18 3.40 Miles 31:09 9:10 Danville, CA (US)
Easy (but HOT) shakeout run prior to race weekend. Now relaxing poolside in Santa Cruz leading up to Sunday’s 6 mile Wharf-to- Wharf (Santa Cruz Boardwalk to Capitola Pier). Best little road race in Northern California!!!
7/19/18 5.50 Miles 44:20 8:04 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Gym night... 10 min warmup, 5x 5 min at threshold pace with 1 min recovery, and cool down
7/18/18 5.00 Miles 41:42 8:21 Danville, CA (US)
Easy run
7/17/18 4.53 Miles 37:40 8:19 San Ramon, CA (US)
Tuesday track, but skipped the group’s intervals workout and ran a bunch of easy recovery laps (post Napa-to-Sonoma Half)...
7/15/18 13.10 Miles 01:33:46 7:10 Napa, CA (US)
Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon #2 AG out of 84 #44 overall out of 2,627 Passed by only one runner (during last mile) in the final 5 miles. Thought, “Uh oh. He looks old like me.” Lost to him by 14 seconds...ouch. (But at least I still won a bottle of wine as an age group award!)
7/15/18 2.00 Miles 18:43 9:22 Sonoma, CA (US)
Cool down following Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon
7/15/18 1.10 Miles 10:28 9:31 Napa, CA (US)
Warmup for Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon
7/14/18 0.10 Miles Napa, CA (US)
Ran 0.1 mile from the parking lot to the Race expo (bib pickup). I’m logging it. We can use all the (partial) miles we can get!
7/13/18 4.80 Miles 43:04 8:59 Danville, CA (US)
Comfortable shakeout run prior to the Napa-to-Sonoma half this weekend. A bit muggy as all that “wet” air from Southern California and AZ finally made its way to us up north...
7/12/18 6.11 Miles 48:15 7:54 Danville, CA (US)
Fartlek run through the neighborhood. Ended by munching on cherry tomatoes from the garden (which has nothing to do with anything, but makes a good photo op)...
7/11/18 4.20 Miles 34:48 8:18 Danville, CA (US)
Easy recovery run (after track day) around the neighborhood. Smiling, but need a shave...
7/10/18 7.04 Miles 56:28 8:02 San Ramon, CA - Cal High Track (US)
If it’s Tuesday then it must be track day! Workout was 1 mile warmup, 1 mile at HMP, 2x 800 at 10K pace, 4x 400 at 5K pace, and then a couple of 200s to fly!
7/8/18 10.60 Miles 01:33:40 8:51 Danville, CA - Las Trampas Ridge Trails (US)
These feet went on a Sunday long run with first 4 miles in the trails of the Las Trampas range (~800’ elevation) and last 6.6 in the “flatlands” (Iron Horse trail).
7/7/18 4.00 Miles 34:00 8:30 Blackhawk, CA (US)
Too hot... gym day! Treadmill set to 2% incline. Warmup 1.3 miles, threshold pace 1.5 miles and cool down 1.2 miles. Not a tough workout so don’t know why I am not smiling... #SelfieNovice
7/5/18 4.00 Miles 33:16 8:19 Danville, CA (US)
Easy recovery run after 4th of July 5K race. Tomorrow is a rest day so my next log will be on Saturday.
