ok 10

I got a late run in, after the day started out looking like it would be bad weather. On the one hand it was bright with some clouds, but it was also windy with a cold wind. So I put on my long sleeved running shirt for the first time this winter and went out. And it was cold and windy in some stretches of the run and warm in other sections. I dont think I really needed the long sleeved shirt.

I had a fast 10km, but it was a bit harder than I had expected. Still, a good run nonetheless, with strong headwinds in some sections...

great 10

This morning I thought I wouldnt run today. It was a little colder, had rained with more rai on the way, and it looked to be a busy day/. I ended up with some time and the weather was pretty good so I went out for a run. I got a nice fast  run in and even hit double digits! I got to 10km and felt pretty good. It was not smooth and I had to push myself and work hard to get the distance and the speed, but I did it

good 6

I couldn't pass up on another beautiful day so I went out for a mid-day run. It was a bit of a struggle, but I had a fast 6km. Thankfully a couple times during the run I got work phone calls I had to answer and it gave me an excuse to stop for a few moments and rest my legs and catch my breath... I really wanted to go farther distance, but I still feel I need to build my strength back up. Even though I am getting fast runs in, it still feels like I am not running as strong as I was just a few weeks ago..

Jerusalem here I come

I think I have not signed up to run a race in about 3 years. I am not sure of that - it might be longer, but I think it is 3 years.

That is now coming to an end.

I signed up to run the Half Marathon in Jerusalem this coming March!

good 6

I had an unexpectedly busy morning, so I didnt get in the run I had planned. Instead I went out this afternoon, and got in a good fast 6km run.

I still feel like I am struggling and working hard. Maybe because I have run so little the past 3 weeks or so, so I am somewhat out of shape, or out of routine.

good 5

after another week of lousy weather and no running, I finally got a run in. I ran 5km in nice but cold and windy weather. The run felt slow, but timewise it was actually fast (though not quite as fast as most recent runs). It felt good to be out there again, but the run was a little tough.. hopefully I'll get back n track soon

good 6

had a good fast 6km run. Wanted to run longer than that but had time limitations. The run today was less consistent with a couple very fast km, a couple just fast and a couple even about slightly faster than average...

good 6

Yesterday I ran 5 so I wanted to run 6 today, taking advantage of another beautiful day. So I went out and ran 6. Still felt that I wasn't 100% healthy and I could feel it in the run, but I pushed and I had a good fast run

tough 5

I got in a decent run this afternoon. 5km at a good fast pace. But it was tough. I have not run since last Tuesday - between horrible weather and being under the weather, it just was not meant to be. Even now I am not back to 100% and that made the run tough. I knew it would be, and that is why I limited by run to 5km. Happy I got it in and hopefully I'll get back to my regular schedule..

tough 6

After not running for a few days due to a simcha in the family that did not allow me the time or energy to run, coupled with some bad weather, I was able to get some running in this morning after doing some work.

It was a surprisingly beautiful day today, a beautiful day in between two storms, and I went out for a good run. It turned out to be a fast 6km but it felt like a struggle. I was feeling slow the entire way and my legs felt somewhat heavy and I was not really enjoying it. I thought of a longer run, but decided on the fly 6 was enough. Happy I got it in even though it was not great, though on "paper" it looks like a great run

great 12

busy day today but I felt it important to get a run in. Both for my sanity and because the rest of the week is supposed to be bad weather. Another beautiful day gave me a great and fast 12km run.

I really wanted to take the day off from running, as my legs probably need a day of rest, but with bad weather headed our way I might not be running this Thursday or Friday, so I decided to go for it today..
