3 mile walk looks like 11 miles to gps on the cruise! 😂
Time to cool down…

It was too icy to run here today, but I got a good hike in instead.

Oh man. You need a plus 1? 😂

In my experience, weird is often the best. Stories to tell, if nothing else.

When first read that I was like “WTF?!? That’s my time for 3 miles!” Didn’t catch that you were cycling. 😂

“But did you die???” OK. No. I can still run 3.1 miles w/o stopping. It’s hard being cautious while I rehab my injury and also increasing runs. The long breaks don’t make it any easier.

Chilly afternoon 5k run.

Chilly, cloudy Sunday afternoon 5k run.
After that 3 months of rest, I felt good enough to run 3.1 miles two times this week. Recovery was long and boring, but it worked!

I’m back! It’s been 3 months but I was finally able to run 3 miles without pain! I’m so happy! Slowed down after mile 1, but I never stopped, even when I wanted to. #runnersover50

But… that’s so metal! 🤘 🎸

Excited today… 1st pain-free run since early Sept! Nagging oblique injury took forever to heal. Lots of rest & easy PT. Did 1 mile run, .75 walk, 1 mile run. Good pace for me, too. Watching post-run pain.

Beautiful record! One of my favorites!

Didn’t feel great, kept pushing and ended with a decent time. Maybe I just ran harder so I could finish faster!

Went for a quick 2 mile run but turned into 2.75. Kept a consistent ”kick” in my stride the whole time and it paid off with a better than average pace! Off to @theterrorcon for the weekend!

9/3 3.5 mile run done. Great night for it. Second night bumping into bird watchers. Hope I didn’t scare the birds away! Had oblique pain, but otherwise felt great!

⚠️ LOW FUEL! Tank felt empty tonight, so just opted to take it slow and just keep moving. Glad I did. Cool pod so kept it interesting.
In my ears: @Traegermethod pod - ep 52 Peter David Connelly (The Mona Reels). Then gave that album a listen, too.

Nice cool night for another 5k. Probably can’t tell but my eyes are closed in that pic due to the sting of sweat!

Excellent soundtrack!

Perfect night for a run! This pace feels right. Enjoyed it. Yeah. 🍻

Never even did the full version free trial. I sort of use the free version, but I only check in from time to time.

Good run tonight! Felt like crap all weekend, so it was nice to get a (mostly) effortless 5k behind me! #runningpunks, your posts kept me going while I was down! Note: didn’t take a selfie so grabbed a sweaty shot from my garage cam. 🤪

Just picked this up today at a local flea market. Nice to finally add it to my collection.

Adding miles after not running all week was questionable decision making. Stiff hip compounded the struggle factor. 4.5 done! How 4.5 on a 3mile loop? You have to be a #Repeater. In my ears: @traegermethod ep. 50: Ian MacKaye #Fugazi #RunningCommunity #runningpunks #runnersover50

Yikes! Too many, but try these…
Divorce Song
Never Said
Cinco de Mayo

Or maybe 10 or 20 others.

Right?!? I can get one, MAYBE 2 miles in under 8 minutes each, but that’s it. And not common any more. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Got my 5k done today. Felt tired a lot. Sore oblique really distracted me. But it felt cooler and breezy, so that was nice!

Had every intention of doing a long brisk walk tonight. But as I stepped out the door, just changed my mind and decided to try for a “zone 2” run. Failed at that, but did do a 3.25 mile run! Thought I was going slow, but still under 10min/mile. 🤷🏻‍♂️
In my ears: @traegermethod pod 48.
