07/01/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Felt pretty terrible. But I think the group did as well. Misery loves company
07/01/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	Ran through bloomer. Felt decent. It was hot
07/02/2006	00:00:00	8	Easy Run	Stoney Creak boat launch. Started out very very easy and gradualy picked it up as the run went along. Overall felt ok but we were going easy
07/02/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	Felt pretty good actually. Pretty fired up after I got in a fight with the ex. Now that shit will make a second run fly by
07/03/2006	00:00:00	8	Easy Run	Ran at noon in the blazin sun in Cedar Rapids. Didn't feel all that great but travel and heat contributed to that
07/04/2006	00:00:00	4.98	Competition	Race went fair. Not terrible but not good. I was feeling ok till about 3k and then I had a real rough spot till about 5k. Just couldn't seem to get things flowing. I think I probably ran about 5min pace there. Regrouped after that and finished decent. Tough race.
07/05/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran the shep loop. Pace was a little faster than I would have prefered but whatever. Back a little tight. Gonna go see the rusty elbow
07/05/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	4 in between clients
07/06/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran the bloomer/yates loop. Felt ok. Nothing exciting really happened

07/07/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	ran around the falls

07/09/2006	00:00:00	9.33	Competition	Race went well today. Ran with Luke and Morgan for the first few miles. Morgan took off on the downhill and I tried to stick with him. Felt good till about 10k and then I hit the wall. The last 2 miles were a struggle. Overall pretty happy with race
07/20/2006	00:00:00	7	Easy Run	First run back always sucks. Everything tired
07/21/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Out and back on Sheldon. Pace picked up today
07/22/2006	00:00:00	9	Easy Run	Twisted my ankle in bloomer so cut it short because I was limping a bit.
07/23/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ankle was killing me the first 15mins or so but loosened up ok. Trying not to limp. I usually wouldn't call 1:16 12 miles but I know we hit a few 5:40's so it was probably close. Felt off and on
07/24/2006	00:00:00	11	Easy Run	Lots of ego's today. I'll admit mine was flaring also. I can't wait to see what it is like when we get in shape
07/25/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran on hilly country roads today. Maine is quite nice. My quads were a little beat up from the yesterday and the travel.
07/26/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran on a different hilly road today, unfourtunatly most of it is just out and back.
07/27/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Chose yet another hilly out and back country road. Jumped in the lake afterwards which was quite pleasant.
07/28/2006	00:00:00	13	Easy Run	Loop was a little longer than I remembered it being but oh well. It was humid as all heck today. As Jacob would say "I was sweating like a nun in a cucumber field."
07/29/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran the ol tri city loop today early. Felt decent. I forgot how much extra pounding the pavement brings.
07/30/2006	00:00:00	15	Easy Run	Ran out to the beach today, it was pretty nice. Humid as all heck again. Man, reading everyone's log makes me realize how much of a slow ass I am. It is gonna be a rude awakening my first few days back on the ranch.
07/31/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran through the city back to the ol high school, through the ol course and finished up at this ol house. Tired of running on pavement, happy with playing tons of golf although I still suck big time. I think I am actually getting worst.
08/01/2006	00:00:00	13	Easy Run	Last loop at home. Luckily I beat the heat. Felt about normal.
08/02/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran early in the mroning before camp. Then ran with the campers but I am not going to call that a run because it was slow as heck and was broken up.
08/03/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran early again with Easy E. Didn't feel good at all. Really tired and just lethargic
08/04/2006	00:00:00	10	Steady State Run	From 6 to 4:50. Per usual we were fast on most of the miles. Per usual again didn't feel bad till about 5:20 and the last mile was tough. Just a tiring week in general
08/05/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran out to Stoney trails. Felt decent, legs a little tired. Finally able to get back in the gym this morning
08/05/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	4 on the floor
08/06/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Hamstring got a little sore so I shut it down the last few miles.
				"Ya doing ya job, every day
				And then you work so hard til ya hair turn gray
				Let me tell you about life, and bout the way it is
				You see we live by the gun, so we die by the gun's kids"
08/07/2006	00:00:00	16	Easy Run	Almost lost the entire ODP team today.
				"Bitches get ready for the throwdown, the shit's about to go down"
08/08/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran out on University and then back on University. Kept it gentle today
08/08/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	ran with easy e today so kept him company for an extra mile
08/09/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran up the biggest hill in Rochester and then came home the ol Tienken pavement trail. Felt usual.
				"Just picture me rollin
				Flossin a Benz on rims that isn't stolen
				My dreams is censored, my hopes are gone
				I'm like a fiend that finally sees when all the dope is gone
				My nerves is wrecked, heart beatin and my hands is swollen
				thinkin of the G's I'll be holdin, picture me rollin"
08/10/2006	00:00:00	6	Tempo Run	5:13, 5:13, 5:13, 5:18, 5:14, 5:15
				Pretty on for the most part, the slow mile was the turn around coupled with getting water. Really trying to work on drinking even though I don't feel like I need to. Felt easy most of the way. Hamstring tightened up again near the end. Went to get the rusty elbow afterwards.
08/11/2006	00:00:00	10	Easy Run	Ran the Bloomer yates loop with everyone. Some people decided to run fast and I took it easier with Bobby. Felt decent
08/12/2006	00:00:00	5	Tempo Run	Ran the Crystal Lake Relay. Personal splits were 4:50, 4:50, 5:06, 4:50, 4:30
				As a team we crushed the competition with an iron fist. Winning by about 7 minutes and breaking the old course record. It was a fun event and my first time up North
08/12/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	Ran a shakeout late this evening because the sitting in the car right after the race and the drive home really shat my legs. I ran about 4 minutes slower than usual on this route, I was walking, haha.
08/13/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the ol Cider Mill loop today. Felt like ass. Trent played slinky today until everyone got fed up and rolled passed him, I was none to pleased to be picking up the pace
08/13/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Ran with the Sheeman after a relaxing Sunday
08/14/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the Twinkler loop with Marty, Synder and Rizzo. Felt decent, pace as upscale but not downtown rochester
08/14/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	I ran past trees, deer, racoons, lots of flies, some cars, some kids swimming. Oh it was quite fun
08/15/2006	00:00:00	11	Easy Run	Ran the Shepherd loop with the gang bang. Didn't feel all that great, legs just in a funk today.
08/15/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	went out right after a nap and like 17 cookies. Nuff said
08/16/2006	00:00:00	18	Long Run	Run was stupendous today. Got rolling fairly quick from the gun and then it heated up around mile 5. I would venture to say we were running 5:20-5:30 pace for most of the way. I had good spots and bad spots today. Overall happy with the quality of the run. I really need to practice drinking more, this was my first long run trying it so hopefully it gets better.
08/17/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the Stoney Trails. Actually felt better than I thought I would. I pounded some endurox yesterday, maybe that is the secret to training.
08/17/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran the trails with Brain Smell, Sheera, and Burt and Erine. Felt decent, whether was pleasant
08/18/2006	00:00:00	11	Easy Run	Stand by shepherd loop. Nick Cordes joined us, that was swell. Think I may need to change shoes. Apparantly the workout is at 7am go time tommorow, that kinda throws off my routine a bit.
08/18/2006	00:00:00	4	Easy Run	"My game is like cake N***A watch me rise"
				-Jay Z
08/19/2006	00:00:00	10	Tempo Run	4,3,2,1 Goal 5:05
				(4:57)(4:59)(5:05)(5:03) Rest 1 mile (7:43)
				(5:02)(5:06)(5:05) Rest 1 mile (8:13)
				(5:07)(4:57) Rest 800m (3:37)
				(5:00)
				Solid workout today. The second 3 miles were pretty tough but I actually didn't die too bad, in fact I hit pace dead on. Rain and humidity sucked the life outta me. Practiced drinking and my stomach started acting like Moen without his prozac. Got to run all alone today, I think it might be a lonely 2 months at Stoney for this guy.
08/20/2006	00:00:00	13.5	Easy Run	Ran to the Middle School with Luke, Brian and Dave and then ran the loop with Ebs and James and Keith. Took it really easy today after yesterdays workout and the long run and race coming up. Felt decent today.
08/20/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Ran with Sheehan through Bloomer. I love Sundays!
08/21/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run
				Didn't feel nearly as good as the old Heartbreak Kid looks, as evident by his entrance theme. If I had an entrance theme for a race I would choose his:
				"I think I'm cute
				I know i'm sexy
				I got the looks
				That drives the girls wild
				I got the moves
				That really move them
				I send chills
				Up and down their spine
				I'm just a sexy boy (sexy boy)
				I'm not your boy toy (boy toy)
				I'm just a sexy boy (sexy boy)
				I'm not your boy toy (boy toy)
				I make them hot
				I make them shiver
				Their knees get weak
				Whenever I'm around
				They see me walk
				They hear me talk
				I make them feel
				Like they're on Cloud nine
				I'm just a sexy boy (sexy boy)
				I'm not your boy toy (boy toy)
				I'm just a sexy boy (sexy boy)
				I'm not your boy toy (boy toy)
				Eat your heart out girls
				Hands off the merchandise"
				- HBK (World's Grestest WWF Superstar)
08/21/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Just your typical double. I am having a lyrical bonanza today:
				I got five on it,
				Grab ya four, let's get keyed,
				I got five on it,
				Messin wit dat indo weed
				I got five on it,
				It's got me stuck and toed back,
				I got five on it,
08/22/2006	00:00:00	20	Long Run	Run was easy like a Sunday morning...for the first 14 minutes or so. Ran another of Clint's crazy loops. Felt pretty solid until the big hill up Adams. My plan was to hang back the first part of the hill and then catch the lead group about half way after the blew their loads. There was no catching to be done on my part. Ran with Kyle till the trail where we ran 5:20, 5:06 and then Kyle turned to me, put me over his knee and said "who's your daddy bitch" and proceeded to run 5:00. Needless to say I did not run 5 flat. I ran like 5:15 maybe. It was a rough "cool down".
08/23/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	As Josh Moen might say "kept it real today". Didn't feel all too bad but didn't push at all either.
08/23/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Plan on running 5 later today and don't want to log back in to do so, lots of clients.
08/24/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the stoney trails loop. Felt like I was in the middle of a marathon segment, what a surprise.
08/24/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	who knew a bannana eating contest wasn't about how fast you could eat a bannana?
08/25/2006	00:00:00	11	Easy Run	Ran the twinkler loop very easy. Felt decent once I got going. We'll see how this race goes.
08/26/2006	00:00:00	10	Competition	Race went exactly how I wanted it to go. Ran easy 5 min mile splits through 5 miles. I was pretty dead on, only had one slow one and felt easy. Hit the first hill at 5 miles and picked up the effort and kept hitting dead pan 5 min splits. Pulled the vulture move and hawked down the dying carcases of some Kenyans. Ran 4:40 on the last mile to finish up pretty quick. Overall felt strong, happy with the way I ran for where I am in the segment.
08/26/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran through Bloomer with Brian after a long nap. If it wasn't for Brian coming over I think I might still be on the couch getting ready to run. Felt good once I got moving.
				Need a schedule so I know if I am working out with the guys on Monday.
08/27/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the Lake Orion Loop. Actually didn't feel too bad for this one. I think the pain will set in 48hrs after the race
08/27/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Ran around bloomer after a productive day. My legs had zero hip-hop to them. A little more hop then Justin Timberlake but a little under Vanilla Ice
08/28/2006	00:00:00	10	Tempo Run	Ran 5x2mile at 5:05 pace
				(5:00)(5:04)/(5:00)(5:05)/(5:02)(5:02)/(5:00)(5:05)/(4:55)(5:00)
				Had a tough time getting out on pace but once I got going I found it again. Aerobically I didn't feel bad at all. My legs were beat up from the race today though. Every hill really put the burn in the quads. Cumulative fatigue I guess, just hope I make it to the race.
08/28/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	It was raining, it was pouring, I wish I was snoring. Legs were shot but Dave made an awesome dinner so I can't complain
08/29/2006	00:00:00	13	Easy Run	Today was not a pleasant run. Felt like my 80 year old grandfather out there today except he has more hair than I do. Ran the beear park loop alone because I am too slow to run with anyone else these days.
08/29/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran with Lucus Humphrey all around the bloomer area. I think it is safe to say we suffered together
08/30/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Felt a little better today although my left soleus started to have some shooting pains during the runs. Too many runs in flats I guess but Iced it well and gave a good stretch and massage afterwards.
08/31/2006	00:00:00	9	Tempo Run	3x3 mile w/mile jog
				(5:01)(5:02)(4:58)
				(5:02)(4:58)(5:02)
				(5:04)(5:06)(4:55)
				Workout was actually pretty easy today even though my legs felt like cement. Aerobically I am feeling great at this pace which should be good for the Marathon. I actually like that my legs are junk because it should make the last 10 miles feel normal. Only problem was that my calf really seized up on the cool down and has been pretty sore all day. Got some stim/ultrasound from clint, iced a bit, and dug into it myself. Hopefully I can get through this, just need to be careful and smart.
09/01/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Calf felt about 60 percent today. Heated it up at Lifetime before I started and that seemed to help a bit. Felt decent for the middle of the run but the last few miles were really sore. Iced afterwards and got some stim. Ionto'd it a couple of times today so I think that will speed things along faster.
09/01/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Calf was sore today but not anymore than usual. Heated before I ran.
09/02/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Calf felt about 80 percent today, I really think the Ionto helped alot so I will keep shooting it up. Hopefully I can put this injury back against the fence and tommorows long run won't take too much out of it.
09/02/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Nice little run through Bloomer in the mist. Calf was off and on. Have to go buy batteries so I can juice myself up again with Ionto.
09/03/2006	00:00:00	20	Easy Run	It was a nice easy long run today with most of the pace pushers out of town. This actually was good for me today I think because it gave my calf a little bit of a break. Hopefully with a few easier days I can get it back to 100 percent. It actually felt ok till about 1:45 and then it started to tighten up. Another day of trying to kick its ass. Took almost 32oz of gatorade and a gu so hydration is coming along, just need to do it at 5:15 pace.
09/04/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Calf seemed to have regressed a little today oddly. I woke up and it felt the best it has yet but during the run it started to hurt. I wore the MOGO's today, perhaps they aggravate the calf more than Adrenalines. I am going to get my 90 day return on that shit, haha.
				Overall the run was ok, made the decision before Snell to take it easy today because of the calf and just not feeling great the last few days.
09/04/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Gotta make loop a little longer although I do think I was running faster today. Calf felt so so, mostly very sore to the touch and a minimal pain while running, just an ache. Trying to decide whether to give it a day or two rest, especially with long workout coming up.
09/05/2006	00:00:00	12.5	Easy Run	Wore the adrenalines today and calf felt much better than yesterday. Damn Trance. Pain was about a 5 on scale of 10 but managable. A little worried about such a long workout tommorow. Might try and go with Axioms or something, not sure what fast pace will do to it.
09/05/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Almost have the loop down, not a bad one I think. Calf felt decent, felt it mostly afterwards and not during.
09/06/2006	00:00:00	10.5	Aerobic Capacity Intervals	(7:31)(7:32)(7:32)(7:32)(7:32)(7:28)(7:28)
				I looked up how to say "mofo bad ass" in French today. Apparantly it is Gaudette.
				Workout went well, especially with the calf. Didn't cause problems during and only a little sore afterwards. Looks like I may have dodged a bullet, gonna try and be proactive till the race. Now I can stop talking about it like a panzy. Legs were tired today but that was nice because it will be like that in the race too.
09/07/2006	00:00:00	16	Easy Run	Can honestly say this run was a rough one. I think it was mostly because I had no idea where we were and I was just hoping it would end. Hamstring pretty stiff so had a good limp today. Going to get worked on today so hopefully will feel better tommorow.
09/07/2006	00:00:00	5	Easy Run	Didn't double yesterday because I was way too sore and I thought I would limp too much thus causing an injury. In addition, I figured I had beat up my calf enough yesterday. Anyway, did the run today.
09/08/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Had a good massage yesterday so felt decent this morning. Run went by ok. I can't wait till the 8 and 4's start again.
09/08/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Felt like dog poo. Legs zapped and overall felt very tired. Hope I feel better for the long run tommorow.
				Signed the lease on my new 1120 square foot office this afternooon. Peak Performance is in phase 2. World domination to come!!!
09/09/2006	00:00:00	22.5	Long Run	According to Luke the run was 22.5 maybe 23 so I am putting that down. Pace was uptempo from the gun which kept it an honest effort. Actually went by fairly quick and didn't feel horrendous which was a surprise considering how I felt the last few days. Ran about 5:10-5:20 on the trail and did the 2 miles uptempo at (5:04)(5:13). That uphill sucked a big one.
				Took an icebath after the run. Went to the country store but it was closed so drove to the corner gas station and saw a guy walking out with two ice bags in his hand. I was like "sweet, they have ice". When I asked the clerk for some he informed me that he just sold the last two bags. Time to invest in an ice machine for the house.
09/10/2006	00:00:00	12	Easy Run	Ran the 12 mile loop with Brian, Luke, and Kyle. Felt decent, didn't realize we were running at 6min pace or better.
09/10/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran with Sheehan through Bloomer. Right calf a little tight but not too much to get worried about. Nice day out for a double.
09/11/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Run felt ok, nothing great. Right calf still feels like it is cramping, especially when we stop a lot. Ran to Bloomer and around which made for lots of add ons.
				Got a new dryer yesteday so I can finally do laundry
09/11/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Nice weather, felt ok.
09/12/2006	00:00:00	8	Aerobic Capacity Intervals	4x2 miles with 800 jog: (4:59)(5:00)/(4:55)(4:57)/(5:00)(5:03)/(4:58)(5:01)
				Workout went well today although I got a little excited on some of the intervals. Started pouring on us to start which was fun. Today was not one of my better pacing days, I just need to relax a little more and not "want" to be fast.
09/12/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran into a high school cross country race, that was pleasant. Why do people insist on those damn invisline fences. How do I know that your damn dog is going to stop when he is running at me 50mph. What if he decides that my skinny leg is worth a little extra shock to the juggular. How bout I ran at you with a huge ass butcher knife as fast as I can and you decide whether I will stop or not. Grrrr
09/13/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Ran the Bear Park loop today. Thought about going with the front group and then started to feel crappy so just took it easy with Kyle and Sheehan. Overall a tiring run.
09/13/2006	00:00:00	9	Easy Run	Went a little long because Travis needed to run an hour so I showed him the ropes. Overall felt ok but legs a little tired towards the end.
				Oh yeah, we ran into our old high school friend again. Man, that kid is always driving shitty ass cars around.
09/14/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Ran the stoney trails with Kyle, Brian, Morgan, Carl, Marty and Rizzo. Moving at a devent clip today and I didn't feel all too bad. Stopped at the track to watch Sheehan for a bit. When I started back up my calf cramped big time. Have a massage this morning so shouldn't be abig problem.
09/14/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran with Sheehan and Travis. Calf felt real tight to start, calmed down after about a mile and a half but then got really bad again at like 4.5. Hurts to walk around now. Time to play catch up with the ol body again.
09/15/2006	00:00:00	7	Aerobic Capacity Intervals	Workout felt a little harder than I thought it would. Just kinda felt flat I guess. Didn't leave me with that achy tired feeling after tho so that is nice. My calf was killing me. When I got going fast it wasn't too bad, just a mild pain but on the cool down and recovery jogs it felt like a nail being driven into my upper calf. Luckily planned afternoon off, gonna go see Ormsbee.
09/16/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Calf felt about 7 of 10 for most of the run and at the start and end was about an 8 or a 9. F'in hurts is all I know. Feels like a spasm so I figure I can just try my best to gut through it until it releases. Saw Dr. John this morning. He has a much bonier elbow than Kyle but I enjoyed. Oh yeah, and I got dropped in the race for the cup today
09/16/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Calf started out 9 out of 10. Really thought of bagging it and then just ground it out. By the end it loosned up to about a 7 so that was nice. Stuck it in a the ice bucket after and then some ionto tonight to see if that helps.
09/17/2006	00:00:00	14	Easy Run	Calf took about 2 miles to loosen up and then it actually felt ok. However, it went into lock down mode about the 1:20 mark, about the same time as yesterday. Perhaps I just need to start banging out 12 milers in under 1:20 and seeing if stops seizing up. Overall nice easy run although quads banged up from limping I think.
09/17/2006	00:00:00	6	Easy Run	Ran with Luke and Brian. Calf felt terrible but just chugged through it. Running not all that fun right now for sure. Don't know what is going to happen tommorow?
09/18/2006	00:00:00	21	Easy Run	Wow, this was one of the top 5 worst runs ever, if not one of the top 3. It just seemed like from the start I was struggling. It felt like the calf hurt so much that it was taking my breath away and I was running with an akward gait. 5:50 pace felt really hard and at some water stops it was like I needed to stop and catch my breath and I couldn't get my breathing under control. Stayed with the group till the trail and then tried to hit MP but wasn't even close. Ran 5:20, 6:00, 6:15. I was running as hard as I could. I guess that is what hitting the wall feels like. Probably going to take tommorow off because obviously I can't train with the calf like this.
