5-31-13

Did a bike-run today with my dad. Ten miles on the bike then 3 running. Running was much harder. On the bike i felt fine for the first couple of miles, then my back started to kill me for the rest of the route. My bike computer wasn't working and that was very working. Also on the run I couldn't find my GPS watch so I ran without that also. As soon as I got on the run It felt very weird and I was was wobbly and unbalanced. I felt like I was drunk. My dad probably snuck beer into my powerade I brought for the bike. Just Kidding. I felt bad the entire run and was glad when I got home.


59 miles for the month of may and my second most miles in a month this year. (First was last month) Put up a biking mileage. First bike of the year. Remember to vote on my polls.

5-27-13 Beach Run

Ran on the beach today at 7:00. Woke up at 7:15 and was really tired. Ran 3 miles with Tom and Dad then ran 2 miles later. 5 miles total today to start the week. I'm not a hobbit, so my feet were hurting. (Hobbits have tough feet and walk on very rocky places barefoot.) I didn't go swimming and they went a little bit.

North Stonington Education Foundation 5K 5-25-13

Ran the North Stonington Education Foundation 5K. That's quite a mouthful. NSEF 5K. I got 5th overall and 2nd in my age group. 19:56 time. 6:25 pace. My hands and wrists were very cold during the race. There were many turns. At the last part I sprinted as fast as I could. I never took water and I was pretty sure they didn't put a mile 2 and 3 marker. I couldn't see the first couple finishers after the first mile but i saw the 4th runner the whole race. Afterwards, there was food and other stuff. For awards I got a hat and a gift certificate.

RI State Police 4-28-13

Ran the RI state police on the 28th. Got 19:21 and set a Pr. Before the start did about a mile warm up on trails. The race went by pretty quick. I think i lined up too far back too start though. I didn't take any water at the water stop because i barely even noticed it. The third mile was mostly just one straightaway  I think that was my fastest mile. After finishing I had no idea what time I had gotten. I came around and saw the clock say 20:10 so I thought it had only been 20 seconds and i may or may not of Pr. Then I went on a 1 mile cool down. When i came back there was food everywhere. Lots of free samples and a long line for other food stretched back to the beach. I found out what my time was and I was surprised.  Then i finally went in the long line to get some food.
