Every day is a series of successes, failures, excuses, being a weather wimp (which doesn't work because I have an erg), and blaming a launch sprint crunch. It's all bullshit.

Day two of two in a row. Hopefully I can keep up a daily run of at least 2 miles a day. I'd prefer it to be 4/day but I didn't sleep well at all last night so I'm being gentle.

I left my safety orange Hill People Gear original kit bag in the window in the sun and now it looks like I've done some serious tie-dye job on it.

I'm taking my very first flight with my new to me eBay-find ANT+ only Garmin Forerunner 910xt. Got it a week ago but this is my first time out on the road.

Now that my pad’s a weight room, I need to keep my forward momentum. I worked out using a combination of TRX, bench with kettlebells, and a 37-pound resistance band, doing a mixture of presses, rows, fallouts, pullovers, tricep extensions, dips, kettlebell bench presses, and close grip presses.

A plumber came by my pad to fix my tub and he told me that I live in a prison weight room. Okay, he didn't say "prison" but it was all in the tone. It's true.

For those of us who aren't naturally as smooth as a dolphin or who aren't religious about their waxing or manscaping, it takes a couple days of running for all the hair in your running shorts to be brutally torn out by the roots; after which, it's all smooth sailing.

I realized that I run like a snowshoer without snow or snowshoes! Made 4 miles again! Very lovely, show, cool, meander, all the way to Shirlington and along 4 Mile Run, then to Walter Reed.

I just did a Strava heatmap and the results are in: I'm a true-blue South Arlington runner.

Made it to four miles! Made it to four miles! So slow but very nice and amusing and refreshing.
