GET LOST IN THE NOTHINGNESS INSIDE OF ME

Mo, 5/26/2014
7.8 miles recovery at Hollifield Patapsco North with 2,058ft of gain in 1:03:21
Tu, 5/27/2014
5.8 miles, too ambitious, at Patapsco and Gun Rd. with 715ft of gain in 45:27
* Thought of running two loops of Gun Rd., but my left Post Tib wouldn't let me have it... flared up after the first loop and opted to cut the run short and live to see another day. Disappointed in this injury after feeling 100% the last week.

Su, 6/1/2014
18.9 miles progressive at Elizabeth Furnace with 3,351ft of gain in 2:51:46
* Mudhole Gap in 1:50, then a 6 mile progression to the top of Shawl Gap and back, but upon reaching the summit, I stubbed my big toe (r) on a rock and it was beyond painful, like broken painful. Could barely run down the mountain. Not a happy camper after having an amazing run and an amazing two days of training. We'll see how bad it is tomorrow.

As of today, I am running the workout on Wednesday on the Zilker Park loop in Austin because the Marathon is my focus, not this weekend's 5K... * A great workout this morning. These workouts are always more mentally than physically demanding, as you try to rationalize everything under the sun. First o

What a great workout. Set a loop record (6:11) during my 10:00 pick-up. Crazy.. and then I was able to increase and keep pace. Very fit, very promising, especially with a 4 mi run only 4hrs earlier. Good, crisp conditions.  We, 5/15/2013 10 miles post Staph Infection surgery with two anti-biotics at Patapsco in 1:14:27 Th, 5/16/2013 Work Fr, 5/17/2013 AM: 4 miles easy thru Patapsco in 32:12 PM: 4 miles with two KOM at Sawmill Trail in 32:05 Sa, 5/18/2013 30 min easy around Old Track Loop + 12 x 400m on Norris Ln. with 1:30 rest in 1:04:14 * 5:05, 5:22, 4:48, 5:23, 5:01, 5

Monday, 08-08-2011 AM: 2.59 miles steady out to Ft. McHenry in 18:10 + Weights PM: 6.19 miles with 5 x 1200m Trail in 4:29, 4:18, 4:28, 4:22, 4:25 (rec. 2') * Norris Ln, not recovered from yesterday's 11M race, but no worries, as I was cramming work before tomorrow's surgery. Not sure if I am going to miss any time or if it will be 2-3 days of no running. Will find out at 3PM. Dreadfully hot today and I felt so much better in the AM session. More energy. Tuesday, 08-09-2011 AM: 7.61 miles steady out to Patterson Park in 50:41 * 7:08, 6:43, 6:44, 6:42, 6:31, 6:34, 6:22 (avg. 6:39/mile)... surprisingly swift. PM: Nail Surgery * So, I had a pretty badly infected toenail on my right big toe that needed attention, and ultimately surgery. Should only miss 2-3 days of running, if not less. Surgery went well, no complications. Wednesday, 08-10-2011-Sunday, 08-14-2011 Recover from Nail Surgery * Well, I would have to say I have had a complication from
