I run, therefore I am…919 kilometers farther than I was Dec 31 2007
I have been considering my options since my last failed attempt at a 32 km training run. It was supposed to be my last long run before my taper. After that the taper was to be 23 km this Sunday, 17 km next Sunday, then the following Sunday is the 42.2 km marathon [...]
I was supposed to run 32 km this morning and headed out a half hour late at 6:30 AM. Actually I was supposed to run it last Sunday but could not because we went to a wedding in Saskatoon and did not get back until about 10 PM Sunday night. Monday I was [...]
Only 5 people showed up today including me. We practiced Bo Kata. Our Bo’s are pretty heavy so my arms are sore from swinging it around all night.

Our Sensei relates that Tonfa were the removable and portable handles which were inserted into large grain grinding stones in order to turn the [...]
What am I, crazy? Why, yes I am, thank you for asking. Another 24 km today at goal pace took me 3:11:21 for a 7:58 pace. I was up at 4:30 AM, had two toast with almond butter, a power bar, and two cups of coffee. That combo seems to work [...]
In spite of the fact that I trashed my quads doing karate last night I went out and ran an 11 km anyway in 1:19:37 for a 7:14 pace.
I got serious nipple burn again. I did not expect it, but I guess it must have been the heat or something. I don’t usually [...]
