The weather forecast was for light rain very early, then a break until afternoon. So I laced up and started my run around 9:00am. Nice overcast day with temps in the low 50’s…so perfect for a training run to get ready for the half marathon next week. Then the really big event of the day…

RSD #1,683 & #1,684 Getting back in the habit of writing these posts
Ran last night around 8:00pm in the dark and stayed on lighted sidewalks. Then woke early this morning and headed out again in the dark with the sky growing lighter as the sun rose. It was a little cooler this morning and the brisk air felt good. Overcast day with rain expected for tomorrow and…
RSD #1,682 Thursday thoughts
Brisk morning run with temps around 45 degrees and partly cloudy. Felt good today and gearing up for a long run this weekend to prep for an upcoming half marathon. I am listening to Your Next 5 Moves by Patrick Bet-David and really hadn’t hear much about it before starting. The first couple of chapters…
RSD #1,681 – I am back!
I am back after technical difficulties for over two months! Still running every day and training for a few half marathons over the next three weeks. I also bought some trail running shoes and have been running trails to mix things up! I am looking forward to my daily updates once again on the journey…
RSD #1,603 And now in the 40’s!
A twenty degree swing in the last 48 hours! It was dark and cold this morning so I opted to run this evening around 7:00pm. The temp this evening when I went out was 69 degrees and it was dark. Easy 9:30 pace for the 3.1 miless. Then off to pick up friends at the…
RSD #1,602 First day in the fifty’s
That’s right, a little cool this morning! Mid fifty’s for the run today. A slight breeze really made it noticeable. Enjoyed the run along the desert dirt road. One more time and then it will be back to my normal sidewalk path. Enjoying each run and each environment is so important. I am blessed to…
RSD #1,601 Another hundred begins
The dog bite seems like it will be fine and no infection. My right knee is still stiff in the morning for some reason and once I move around a little the soreness goes away. Ran out on a desert dirt road under cloudy skies and a little wind. High 60’s and very nice running…
RSD #1,600 A run to remember
Another big milestone for the run streak. As the date approached I had the idea that running 16 miles to commemorate the day would be a fun way to celebrate. Last weekend I ran 8 mile to prepare and then this week my right knee kept nagging at me. The knee is sore and I…
RSD #1,599 Kept it slow and steady
Planning a long run tomorrow for day 1600 so told myself to keep today a nice slow and steady run. Felt really good at a 9:26 min/mi pace. The weather is still amazing in the mid 60’s. Just a really good run. Run happy!
RSD #1,598 Stress relief
I love to run the first thing in the morning. I feel so alive and accomplished starting the day that way. Then on stressful days sometimes I want to run again to release the tension. This lead to the question, is it better to run in the morning or in the evening? I know we…
