Great runs and a blogger meetup

I’ve had 3 days of running before work in a row this week.  Monday I did 11 km, Tuesday 11.5 and Wednesday 12 km.  Every day this week the forecast has been for rain but as you can see from the photo below the “rainy conditions” have been pretty fantastic.  I’m looking out my window now at 6:30 AM and the rain for today is looking like another day of glorious sunshine.

Yesterday I ran through our local Viaduct Harbour and it was quite nice seeing all the yachts.  I was looking enviously at some folks having a big fry up of a breakfast in one of the many cafes in the area.

On Saturday afternoon I had a blogger meetup with Kepa, Mary and Mandy.  It was quite nice meeting folks from the blogging world.  My little monkey did not want to be in the photo but the price of using me as a chair is that you have to go where I go. :)

  1. Dude, 100 lbs is some good stuff! While I will never be a runner, I admire your commitment and interest in it. I hope you reach your goal of 20 more lbs. Thanks for checking in with me everyday

  14. Congrats on the 100 mark. The amount of running you do is impressive. I stick to the walking with shin splints….
    I used to live near a coast, but now I am land locked from the ocean…Nice to see those pictures.

  16. Tom,

    You should have a partner help stretch before you walk to help those shin splints. Have them, while you are sitting down, extend the foot away from you like you are pointing your toes at them if they are in front of you. Also – you might try to draw the alphabet with your big toe to help stretch out. it’ll work both front and back of legs at the same time. Just a little advice.

    Also, I find it encouraging to read your your running progress.It doesn’t make me feel jealous that I wimped out, instead I find it motivating. Thank you!
