hung over on a Wednesday Morning!

Hello all!  Last week I was going to write this great post about running in the blistering cold in NY, and then about the fact that I ended up dancing at a subway station in BK at 1am just to keep warm, but I have had no internet for the past week, so I was unable.  

Did you know that it is officially HIP to live in Portland?!?  I was at my favorite drinks for cheap bar last night and met this skateboarder that let me hold onto his skateboard for half the night, and told me of his dreams of moving to Portland in the next year.  

I ran yesterday twice around the reservoir in the park, and have to say that it is probably my FAVORITE run in the city in the evening.  Soft ground, water all around, and amazing views of the city.  Anyways, when you all come to visit we will have to run it!

NY- Central Park Reservoir Jogging Path

Better Late Than Never

Hi Kids,

It’s the loveable (and currently slightly disgruntled) T-Mac. Well, I might as well jump in with my workout results for the weekend. Friday, Kitri and I hit the gym. I ran approximately 2 miles and finished with some lifting. The same can be said for Saturday. Although, my run was slightly interrupted by Andy Oldenburg, who told me the Irish nearly lost to Navy…again. The happy couple is hopefully off to Bally’s (or the BTF as I call it) to run and watch Brady Quinn carve up the Bills. Let’s hope a) Brady becomes the second comming of Joe Montana AND b) I make it the full 30 minutes without wanting to quit. Will I do it…stay tuned.

 

My weekend

Hello Team- I am happy to report my toe is feeling much better! I took Friday off because of my toe. Saturday I ran for 27 minutes 3 minutes running at 5.5 and 2 minutes recovery at 3.5, I also took Sunday off. I plan on going to the gym today so I will keep you all posted on how that goes. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

The Weekend . . .

am a little disappointed to see that no one has writen this weekend.  But no worries, since I am three hours ahead of everyone else, I will start us off.  I took Saturday off and watched the following movie instead for motivation . . . 

Run fatboy, Run

Click on the link for the trailer, it was pretty funny.  Anyways, Yesterday I ran outside for a quick 1.5 mile run for 10 minuets, then back to the gym where I did the Precore for 25 minutes, and then arms, sholders, and back. 

I thought it might be fun for us to all share our favorite music/artists/bands that we like to listen to when we run.  Because I get bored easily, I am always looking for new music to add to my playlists. :)
