Running & Other Odd Stuff
This is my second pair of Sir Issacs, although this time I've gone up a half size. I think I'll get 'em blooded tomorrow. Well, hopefully not too much blood. Certainly sweat. Maybe even a tear or...

To paraphrase and misquote Wilde: "We are all lying on a trampoline in the garden, but some of us are looking at the sky". After today's run in the hot sun I felt the need to rest a little. Whilst doing...

Running nerd alert. The following post contains pictures of my running shoes. Non runners will be completely disinterested in this and are therefore advised to ignore this post. Better still, non-runners...

Well it's hard when the sand is as soft as this stuff I encountered today. I lasted about ten minutes before I found something firmer to run on. Nice bit of cardio action though.

Great alternative to chicken eggs. Rich flavour, beautiful translucent shell. Good recovery food too, with plenty of protein. Egg mayo sandwiches today I think!

It's my 42nd birthday today, and to celebrate I went for a leisurely run with an old friend who I've not run with for about 25 years. We lost touch, the years rolled by. In those years, so much has...

You want to run, but you don't want to. You feel the self-imposed guilt of not running and yet you can't find the motivation to get out there and get some miles in. If you do go out, it seems like much harder work than it should. This can mean only one thing. You've lost your Mojo.Running isn't the only activity where one can lose it of course. But I'm not really here to talk about those things. Instead, let's talk about running. Actually, no. First, let's talk about what Mojo is. When I was a kid growing up in North...

Early morning 4.44 miles, tempo run. But how did it go down? Silver Linings Pretty much stayed out of my comfort zone for the whole run. Managed mile 2 at sub 8 min/mile pace. I think that's a first, but I've never had the ability to measure times accurately before I got the old Garmin Forerunner 405. Clouds Pretty much stayed out of my comfort zone for the whole run. That's not me, by the way. I'm just being self-deprecating.
