Asthma Update

I ran again without using the inhaler today.

So either the lungs are stronger.

Or the pollen is gone.

Or both.

Half Marathon #2 - 5/30/2010

Pretty good.  I ended up doing a 2:17:21.  I didn't quite make my goal of 2:10 - 2:12.

BUT...

I still knocked 5 minutes off of last year's time. 

Plus I had a 3 minute train delay.

Almost There

** Fist pump **

You ever have a class where you didn't really apply yourself as much as you could and then suddenly found yourself panicking right before the final?

I feel like the exact opposite of that right now.

I'm so ready.

Tapering

I'm supposed to be tapering off right now.

But I ended up doing 5 miles yesterday (1 with Daisy first thing in the morning, 4 at lunch).

I felt so good, I just kept on going.

Pat Report 05/10/2010

Had a great run yesterday.  One of the best long runs I've ever had (even with the 20 - 30 mile per hour wind gusts).

13 beautiful bike path miles.  I felt light, smooth and fast.

I only missed one workout for all of April.  I think I'm on the right combination of asthma meds now.  It's all coming together.

Ups:

Usually Mother's Day is the busiest day of the year on the bike path, but the winds must have kept people home.  I had the place to myself.

I'm only slightly sore today.

I felt like I could have done 18 yesterday.



Downs:


Without the winds, I probably could have been 2 - 3 minutes faster.

My toes are looking pretty beat up at this point.
