Red Mosquito

I ran and goddam it was hot.

Im going to run early evening then watch hockey

All the stats the Garmin spits out are pretty cool, assuming they're worth a shit. Cadence, HR, Training Effect, etc.

26 feet of elevation gain today! Mostly from sidewalk ramps, I'm assuming.

Bought my first pair of trail shoes, Brooks ASR. Basically the trail version of my road shoes. Probably won't be able to do any regular trail running until July or August, but they were 30% off on Jack Rabbit, so...

Trail running changed my life.

Retired the Boston 6s this morning with ~650 miles.

Could have put another 200 miles on them, but I'm actually gonna wear them as my casual shoes for awhile.

Gonna run in my Takumi-Sens until I get another pair of Bostons.

I just recently switched out mine. My guess is I had at least 500 on them. I'm now in the colorway that you just retired.

Not on strava, but I ran 7 miles today for the first time since October. Took me almost an hour

Anyone interested in starting a streak?

I need some motivation to get through summer.

I'd love to do a streak someday but right now I need my two rest days. Unless walking/biking would count.

Yeah I need the rest days too. Getting ready to start MDI training plan on June 1.

Picked out a training plan yet?

I think biking would count.

I got a higdon one printed out. I actually plan on asking you a lot of questions about your first time so hopefully you check your pms.

OH man. Post lunch sleepy's are in play here at the office. Outlook not so good for evening jog.

It's 90 here. So yeah

For sure, ask away. I used Higdon's Intermediate 1, but kinda wish I had done Int. 2 (similar or same MPW but more speed workouts).

I ran on a trail and didn't fall down.

Streak starts tomorrow. At least 6 miles a day.

Godspeed.

I'm getting up extra early tomorrow on a goddamn holiday weekend to get 14 in before the real heat kicks in.
