8 Miles - Good Run

I did it. I ran 8 miles, and it was a good run at a pace of 11 minutes and 56 seconds per mile. This pace is 10 seconds faster than my pace last Saturday and the best news is I feel good. I ran earlier today as well and the morning cloud cover was still there after my run around 9 AM...

I think the run was better today because of the cool weather and fueled myself better. I drank soy milk before the run and ate bread with peanut butter...

Good run! Am looking forward to the 9 mile run next Sat..

7 miles

Last Saturday I did my long work out.

I ran 7 miles at a pace of 12 minutes and 6 seconds per mile... So that means I completed the 7 miles in a little over 84 minutes... This is very good...

But my post run routine did not go too well. After the run I felt nauseous... So I wasnt able to eat or drink as much as I would have liked...

This was bad because I was not able to replace the electrolytes that I lost. It was an especially warm day, even though I started at 7:30 AM, the sun was already burned through the morning clouds...

As a result, I was in bed in pain... Only in the late afternoon did I force myself to eat and drink stuff...

Note to self, replace electrolytes whether you feel like it or not....

Week Five Half Marathon Training - Long Run...

I ran 6 miles this morning in 1 hr 12 minutes at an average rate of 12 minutes and 6 seconds. This is a very good improvement from two weeks ago of 5 miles in 62 minutes... Not only did I run faster, I ran a mile farther and to top it off I ran on a outside track vs. a treadmill...

5:30 AM on a Saturday Morning

I am preparing breakfast. 2 hard boiled eggs, two eggo waffles and coffee.

I will be doing my long run today, six miles on pavement.

My run time will be right around 7 AM....

I got my new shoes by the way, its the same shoes I have been wearing, the ascics gel pulse, I got it at Finish Line for $49!!! Pretty sweet deal huh!

I really dont have much to say... Will update later today after my run to post results!

Poor Blog

My poor poor blog. I have neglected you for so long. I even let my hosting account for divergentpoles expire...

I have missed you my dear blog... Its as if you are my a part of my soul that I have not visited for a while. Shunned to the most inner part of me as if you never existed.

But the outside world has not been kind either... Sometimes I just want to crawl back into you and never come out... Only existing in cyberspace only one mouse click away...

I this world I am King, out there I am a pin ball bouncing about violently against the obstacles of life...

Who am I? Once I was a poet, then I was socio economic commentator, for a while a was a fervent child of God...

Today? Not so much of anything. Neither here or there...

Sometimes I look at myself and I see nothing but this injured creature on the side of the road... As if a road kill left to the side to die slowly and painfully... Even when I wreak of death in full stench no one would even notice...

Even if they did, they just turn away.

As dead as I feel inside, I pick myself up.

I need to make others happy.... So I snap out of it and I am me again... The ever dependable person you need....

Its been a while

Wow, my last post was November 2, 2009. Last November I could only do 2.6 miles in 45 minutes. Just yesterday I did 2.6 miles in 30 minutes, thats quite an improvement from last year!
