Ate way too much again, but finally threw out most of the Christmas goodies laying around. 6 on the TM. I really want to get outside again this week. It looks like it will be warming up later in the week.

I went to the gym tonight and lifted for 30 minutes (chest, shoulders, core/abs) and then I ran on the track. My legs were a little sore, so I only wanted to stretch them out. I wanted to do a faster mile, so I tried hard to push it, but I had a terrible stitch in my side almost the whole way. It sems like that happens every time I run after I lift. I finished in 7:37, and then I cooled off with a mile on the TM. My side hurt the whole time.

I have been feeling a little bummed all week, but the gym sure makes me feel better. Maybe it's the weather. I need Spring!

A trip to the dentist (with bad news), a horrible commute, and had to work late to close out the month. Good thing my wife picked up some Krispy Kreme donuts for me. This hasn't been the best week ever, but I'm taking the rest of it off. Heading up to our condo in Midway with friends to celebrate the new year. I did manage to get in 4 on the TM tonight. My wife is a saint for putting up with all of my craziness. Happy New Year everyone!

Went up to our family condo in Midway to spend New Years Eve with friends, and we had a great time. I spent two hours chasing kids and sleds up and down the sledding hill. It won't count for any miles, but it was sure a good workout. We had a fantastic time, and I ate waaaay too much junk again. Happy New Year everyone!

I can't believe that another year has passed us by again. They go so fast the older you get. I had an amazing 2009, and I am hoping to have an even better 2010. I did accomplish most of my fitness goals, and I made many great memories hiking and running last year. I climbed 31 peaks, ran my first half and full marathons, and met some incredible people along the way. There were several EARLY mornings, but I loved every one of them, and I can't wait for more adventure this year. Wishing everyone the best in 2010.

Oh yeah, I did manage 4 on the TM today. It's not the way I wanted to start out the new year, but it will have to do.

Had a really fun run this morning with Jun and Aaron K. on the BST. We met at 7:00, and Aaron wasn't feeling all that well, so after a few minutes he had to stop and take care of his issues, and Jun and I kept going. The trail was covered in snow, but it wasn't as slick as the last time we ran it because the snow was fresh. After about a mile I also started having issues with my stomach and I had to stop (I'll spare you all of the details) for a few minutes while Jun moved way ahead. After I resolved my issues it took about 5 minutes to catch up to Jun, who had stopped to wait for me. The mountain was completely enveloped in clouds, and the fantastic view we had for the first 20 minutes was gone.

At about mile 3 my knee started to bother me, and when the snow got deeper I actually had to walk a bit because it was hurting. We turned around at mile 4, and then on our way back we ran into Aaron about 3 miles from the cars. He looked a lot better, and he and Jun motored ahead for the rest of the run, while I was much slower. My knee was really sore, and it was really hurting the last mile. I think it was too much up and down on the sledding hill the other day, so I will take it easy for a few days.

It was a really fun run, and the perfect way to start my Saturday.
