Run - 0 hours - 09/02/2009 0

September is the hottest time of the year in California. Today is was 105 degrees, around 7pm. We ran around William Land park, there were a few shady areas which was nice. I think it was too hot for along run. I think early morning runs suit me best.

Changes 2

Wow, it’s been awhile since I’ve updated my running blog. These last few weeks have been tough, in fact my life has changed completely. I am currently a “victim of the economy” another good word would be “unemployed”. I was laid-off a few weeks ago from a great station that I worked for more than 4 years. It’s been hard waking up and not having anything to do. And recently I’ve been pretty pissed-off from this situation I am currently dealing with. So I’ve taken ALL my frustration, and anger out in my running. Which helps me feel better and run harder than I’ve ever ran!

Longest Run! 0

Today we met in Folsom and ran around Folsom Lake into Sacramento. It was a great run, perfect weather, and great friends to run with. We stopped a few times for a drink, and gel shots, I did get a muscle cramp at mile 12, had a walk it off and stretch a little.

I ran around McKinley park 10 time by myself, it was pretty boring, but I made it through 10 solid miles. I felt pretty good afterwards. Overall, it was a good run.

El Dorado Run… 0

Today was the longest, hardest run I’ve ever ran! We started in El Dorado Hills, California which is the beginning of the foothills. We ran a few tough hills, in which made me tired. In fact, I am still pretty sore from Saturday’s run. But pretty proud of myself I made it through 15 miler! Once, we got to the top of the hills, overlooked the Sacramento Valley, which was stunning!

Running Assessment…. 0

I will never forget today’s running assessment. I broke my timing from my last test by a good 3 minutes earlier! I guess it’s because I was trying to runaway from death…yes, death. During our test, I noticed helicopters, ambulance, police, it looked like they were searching for someone. Turns out, someone jumped off a bridge (suicidal death) while I was taking my running test.
Afterwards, I went home and said a prayer.
