As a youth, I ran, yet I did not exist in a sense. 19 years passed. Today, I exist in one sense because I must run. Perhaps I run to escape the futility of my existence. Perhaps not. In either case, this blog, or whatever it is, will serve to chronicle my training as a runner, my development as a man, and ultimately my demise as a human, because all things pass, fade, retreat into the horizon--and while we run, as we run, the mirage that is the shimmering, glimmering future continues to assert itself just out of reach. And yet, as this picture up above connotes, it may still be beautiful. And so the question may be what is IT? What is it? What is IT?

11.7-11.13
11.7 30 minutes cross training on eliptical.
11.8 6.1 easy miles.
11.9.11 2 miles warm up. 4 by 1 mile at Half-marathon pace with 400 recovery jogs. 5:25 (1:47), 5:24 (1:42), 5:22 (1:45), 5:18. 2 mile cool down.
I was aiming to average between 5:25 and 5:30, so I was under that and really did not mean to be. I really didnt work very hard, although I didn't exactly loaf around for my recoveries so this was a decent workout. I feel like I could click off 82 second splits for a quarter mile for a while--hopefully 52 in a row! lol.
Now, I will take it very easy the next three days.
8.75 miles total.
11.10 OFF
11.11 3.65 miles easy with strides
11.12 2.30 miles easy
11.13 .5 mile warm up. 13.1 miles in 73:34. 2.3 cool down.
15.9 total for the day.
36.7 miles for the week.
