Can a guy find some sidewalk

Went for a 3.64 mile run today here in Columbus. I am at the Holiday Inn this week because the Baymont is full due to the Air Show. So I looked on Google and thought I found a nice path that would take me to a park about 2.5 miles away. Well, there wasn't a single sidewalk on the route, I was running right next to a very busy road, and people were not making an effort to give me any room. So I cut it a little short and didn't make it too the park. I didn't want to risk getting run over.

Good 3 Miles

Another 3 miles in 93 degree weather here in Columbus. Again, me legs felt pretty good, tired, but not painful. I think it is safe to say that I am not going to make my marathon in October though. I am way off on my training and I am not where I need to be. Time to reschedule another marathon.

91 Degrees and Running

Ha, it was hot today, 91 degrees, at 5:30 pm. I ran 3 miles around the hotel here in Columbus. Felt good again, the knee anyway. Man, it's amazing how quickly I lose what I had. I was out of breath, my legs we burning, and I felt all out of wack........Feels like where I started.

5 Miles in Columbus

Staying here at the Baymont Inn in Columbus, Ohio at the Rickenbacker airport. I used Google maps to plot a four mile course to do a little easy running before this weekends race. Well, they are doing a lot of constrution around here, and apparently Google maps isn't up to date on the changes. So I just ran around and around on roads and roads to be and used my GPS watch to get the miles. It was a little toasty, but a good run. Also wore some of my new running gear, I think I need to pick up some more. It did it's job of wiking the sweat away. It did smell like strawberry though.........I had a slim fast break open in my suitcase. Still having little pains in my left knee, not on the side anymore with my ITB, it's in the back now, almost feels like in need to stretch a little more.......
