hot-cold week
First off, let's get this off of my chest: S:1k, B:106k, R: 51k
YUP! Broke the 50k mark, which is HOTT. BUT I only managed to do a 28 k run.
le sigh. The next morning (ie: today), my right ankle was a little tender. Now for those that already know, I broke my right ankle in high-school from a baseball/softball sliding incident. GREAT times. So when I woke up it was sore, not swollen but it took a good 25min to warm it up. It's still a little sore.
Next week I'll be more deligent about getting in my thursday runs.
OLYMPICS!!!

new banner, new site
Hello all,
I rarely do mid-week posts, but I thought it might be interesting for a change. I came across a pedometer site recently and it's the greatest invention ever. This site can track elevation, topography, and see a hybrid real-time bird's eye view of the route that we plan on mapping.
Here is the proposed route we wanna do for Saturday.
Leg 1 starts from the AC - lakefront - high park adventure.
Leg 2 is a modification of the reliable trail route with a modification that we go up to eglington and cut into moore park.
If you've come to my site often enough, you'll notice a new edition that I thought would make my blog a more interesting place. I've photoshopped (quite amateur-ishly ) a photo taken with two people I quite enjoy. C & R. In addition, we are all part of the Asics family, and we rock those shoes like no other. Hearts and stars to them. They jumped on the train when I asked them to come out for a simple 10k run. Fabulous friends, I couldn't ask for better people to be around. I hope they continue to be around me again and again, and to many more group runs.
Did I mention that I heart running with people as opposed to listening to daft punk.
