Love the Run

Starting next Monday, January 18, I officially enter "Marathon training mode" where every workout is carefully executed, recorded, and evaluated in my leading to the BMO Vancouver race.

So that I can hit the ground running - so to speak - I figured that I should actually start running again after a long (but well deserved) break from the running grind.

New Year's Day I started with Run 1 - 2010


After last Saturday's Toonie spin at Speed Theory I ran down to see the folks at Forerunners with Nicole to buy some new shoes for the season

This is actually my 3rd pair of Saucony's Grid Fastwitch 3 shoe, and I really like the weight, last, and heel profile of the shoe. New Shoe Day happened Sunday January 11 with the great folks from the Steveston Athletic Association at Granville Island

Love the Run

A New Year Begins

At the risk of writing a cliche, here's my list of things for 2010

1. Update my blog more often (been busily on a training vacation)
2. Get back running
3. Life is more than swimming, biking, running
4. At home, at work, clean up as I go
5. Stop buying lunch at work all the time stupid, you're a pretty good cook
6. Figure out how insurance works and get some
7. Help Elizabeth plan a wedding. Maybe that way I'll be invited
8. Hit 1000 watts for 5 seconds

I didn't reach 10 things, but I'm okay with it
