Well follks, there will be a bunch of boring posts on these pages for the next few weeks. I have no races on the calendar until San Diego RnR (June 6), and with that I’m just doing six miles in the relay. In the meantime, it will just be the drudgery (for you) about reading about my training. A few miles here. A few miles there.
For example, yesterday’s run was five miles along the ocean at Crystal Cove. My goal was to raise my heart rate into the general aerobic range (75% to 85% of max). FAIL! I averaged just below aerobic range for the duration. And just likemissing my goal, the rest of the run was overall uneventful. In fact, the only thing that I’ll remember about yesterday’s run is the pain in my legs! Wow! It’s pretty apparent that I need to slow things down and rebuild.
Oh. And I’ll try to throw in a trail run every now and then for some variety.
Nothing wrong with just the basics for awhile :).
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about your posts, we'll all be here, following along.
ReplyDeleteThis is not boring at all, Glenn. Keep on writing (and running).
ReplyDeleteIt's all good! You've still got support from me!
ReplyDeleteBlogging is a little like running. Sometimes you blog a lot and sometimes you blog a little. Sometimes you feel like nut, sometimes you don't! I'm off to get me an Almond Joy. Keep bloggin'!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize you were running the relay until just now! It takes me a while...
ReplyDeleteNope, not boring at all! Keep it coming!
Twitpic!! I love photos.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
ReplyDeleteJust so you know...I am not going anywhere:)
Have fun with the trail running. I am thinking about doing a little of that on Sunday. I am heading up to Duluth to bring a few things home for my son. He has one more week of college and there is no way all of his junk is making it home with one trip:) Duluth has several great trails...I am checking them out! Have a wonderful weekend Glenn!
i'm sure you will find something interesting to get into...
ReplyDeletebesides yapping about our daily runs is how we all got into this blogging business, isn't it?
I just saw your note. Yes I will be out there and will be running by that place where you saw me last. Probably going to turn around at that area between the little bridge and the Korean church. I'll be out there early. Say 'hi' if you see me.
ReplyDeleteEven on your "boring" days I am still ammused :)
ReplyDeleteSo waaaaaaaaaaaait a minute, does this mean no L.H. 1/2?
May I offer you a 5k? Those are fun..
And about the heart rate.. I was readning the other da yabout how we burn fat when we are just trotting along, and not pushing it to the max, is this true?
YES!! Now THESE are my kinds of posts. Nice and boring. Wouldn't be the Boring Runner w/out 'em!
ReplyDeleteWe just like your blog, it doesn't have to be spicy EVERY time...have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteYay for the odd trail run!
ReplyDeleteGlenn
ReplyDeletewhat I wouldn't give to be knocking out some regular training runs right now - keep on running I really enjoy reading your website
Not sure I'd characterize such posts as boring. Then again, I don't drool on myself :-).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the runs ahead, on the road or on the trail.
yeah for basics!!!! At least you are running!!
