Training Log Archive: bishop22

GTA with Erik, DV, JV, Darren and Leo. Over to Highland and picked up the trail parallel to 590 - comfortable 7:20-ish pace. Then we picked it up a bit and I started to struggle to hang on at 6:50-ish the rest of the way - I fell off a couple of times (before Leo), but they let me catch back up and I was fine the last 1.2 miles.

C • When do you leave for 1000 days? 3

44 - went OB to take a 7 on 4, missed a lot of par putts (including a 2-footer on 6), but made a 4-footer for a birdie-2 on 5 (shot just missed the pin on the way in).

Event: Rocky Mountain 1000 Day
 

Unplanned rest day - meetings scheduled on top of training time, then I had to mow the lawn and Huntz was in town with his family for the Bills camp, so it was pizza and beer for dinner, leaving no chance for a late jog.

5 x 1 slice of Cam's. Hard!

XC Camp at Webster Park - ran fairly easy with the faster intermediate group (included Nate and the Riegers), until I stopped to check on Ashley's rolled ankle, after which I couldn't track them back down.

Chris's sister directed us to a nice little park outside Salisbury that had several +/- 1 mile trails to run. Ran first with Chelsea and Nate at an easy pace...

...then ran at a quicker pace with Nate, while Chelsea ran her own pace. He led a fartlek session for about 10 minutes, so there was some '4' running involved.

Although I called it a night relatively early (2am) and missed the festivities that went on past 4, I still had enough trouble getting up to prevent a run before leaving the Beach, then in Salisbury, we ate dinner at Uno's, preventing any real chance of a run afterwards.

No one else could answer the bell for a 9:15am run after last night's family reunion bender, so I was on my own. Ran along the boardwalk in Rehoboth to the S end then roads into Dewey Beach. On the way back, I ran 4 minutes in the sand, and that was enough. Picked it up to 7min pace for a measured 3/4 mile, then picked it up again for the return trip on the boardwalk, more than expected because I had to pass someone early on.

Family Reunion golf outing at a very nice course outside of Rehoboth. Rumor is they spent $2M on flowers, etc. and it looks like it. Probably the second-nicest course I've played (behind Crag Burn). I spent too much time on the beach and made other bad decisions due to lack of knowledge of the course, and put up a 96. John Foley led all players with a 79.

C • Short eanough? 2

Awesome run from the family reunion in Rehoboth. Went with Walt, Pat, Huntz, Samantha, PJ, Brig, Nate, and Sarah and Coop (on blades) for a while. Thru town to the canal where we did some impromptu O'ing thru various shades of green to a soon-to-be subdivision with the roads in various states of construction and back.
