| Location: Around and about,CA,USA Member Since: Sep 14, 2008 Gender: Male Goal Type: Other Running Accomplishments: Kinda consistently running since 07 Short-Term Running Goals: 5k in 18:00; 10k in 40:00 Long-Term Running Goals: I would like to be able to keep up with my daughter. The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance. Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters. Personal: I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities. Favorite Blogs: |

| Sanchez asked me to work out with him, so I showed up in my workout shoes. Now my tendons hurt from those @#$8ing five fingers. | | Comments(1) |

| Wayne ran me into the ground going from work to the Strand and back. Neither one of us had a watch. One of us was panting and cursing. |

Murph for Wayne's going away. Wayne got a DNF with only 800m to go. He won't live this down for the rest of his life.
We'll try again tomorrow. |

| Ran around getting shot for a few hours. This time I remembered long sleeves. Unfortunately my nephew didn't and wore mine. I look like I have small pox. Next time I'll bring every long sleeve shirt I own. | | Add Comment |

Did all my warm ups and cool downs on a bike.
1 mile fast with Sanchez on base.
5 fast with John or Jon down the Strand. I don't know him well enough to spell his name right.
I spend a significantly more time on my warmups and cooldowns today, but I saved a buttload on gas. Almost 4 dollars! | | Comments(1) |

| Ray's staying at a local hotel for a class, so instead of commuting for two hours in the morning he wanted to go for a run. He wanted easy. I suggested an out and back to the beach which would be a slight uphill run on the way back, but he wanted easier and requested we turn into the El Segundo neighborhood streets. I did not tell him that every street has a hill. Poor Ray. And poor me. |

| Easy run with Chris trying to rid myself of the previous night's beer pong calories. I probably should have run a lot longer... |

Rode to Hermosa in around 30 something (lots of downhill).
Ran with the group. Planned on doing intervals, but just kept it fast enough to suck.
Rode home in 40 something (lots of uphill).

Tried to run up and down Mt Otay (yes it was discovered by a Lil' Rascal), but ended up walking a lot. Albeit speedwalking.
From the summit we could see Tijuana. Along the service road we saw a lot of Border Patrol Agents.
Went with Randy and a retired SEAL. I hope I'm in that kind of shape when I'm 52. |

Went to see Steve for his birthday. Haven't seen him in 4 years or so. I didn't think Monterey was that far away. I was wrong, but it was good to catch up with him and his family. | | Add Comment |

Ran with Randy on the Strand. Plan was to run 30 minutes out then run back and see how far we could get in an hour. I couldn't keep up with him. I started walking after 25 minutes. I felt my hands and feet swell. It was hard to keep my eyes open, because my face started puffing up. I walked to the life guard and he called the paramedics. They insisted on taking me to the hospital. They wouldn't take me to my parked car. I was Randy's ride to the bus stop. I left my keys with the lifeguard, told him where I parked, described what Randy looked liked and went to the emergency room. They stopped the swelling with an IV. It also knocked me out. I left my phone in the car. I didn't know anyone's phone number by heart. At least not anyone who lived close. Good thing the lifeguard told Randy to call me at the hospital.
Turns out I'm allergic to crab and that I'll need to carry an epinephrine shot with me from now on.
Randy was not happy he was stranded. He can't drive stick. He was happy that he ran faster and farther than me. He's telling everyone that I had to go to the hospital after trying to keep up with him.
His sense of humor is the reason we're friends. |
