Accountability Check...

WHERE ARE YOU GUYS????? Injured or not, resting or running, you guys can still post so we know what is going on. Don't make me call you both out by name !

The Corporate Challenge...

Well, my running is still sporadic. It is one of those "seasons" in the running season that seems to rear its ugly head every year. Usually, it happens to me at the beginning of the season. When I was running well and often earlier, I thought I had finally avoided the dreaded season. Well, I guess I can still beat it if I put some good days together and let them snow ball.

On Thursday evening, I am running in the JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge - Boston. It is 14,000 runners squeezing down one side of Commonwealth Avenue so that they can all fit coming back on the other side of Commonwealth Avenue. It is fun, though, because of the amounts of people, you see co-workers, and the company pays - dinner, too. All of that helps to minimize the effect of "cuddling" under the Massachusetts Avenue overpass (part of the route), which is approximately 20 feet wide, with 1,000 of your closest and stinkiest friends. I am most concerned about this because I am one of the stinkiest, I am sure. And as a God-fearing Christian, I must be concerned for my fellow man. So, how can I subject them to such pain and suffering? Did I mention that the company pays for the race - and dinner, too?

A Little Sporadic...

After my race on May 30, I ended up taking the week off - my mom was visiting and I had a lot of work. So, last week, I went back to speed work, but only got four days in:

Tuesday - 6.5 miles (2 x 1 mile, 1 x 1200, 1 x 800, 1 x 400, 6 x 100 strides)
Wednesday - 5 miles moderate
Thursday - 5.5 miles (4 x 200, 4 lactate sessions, 4 x 100 strides)
Sunday - 8 miles

I should be running tonight, but instead I am going to watch the Celtics in Game 6. Speaking of which, I should have let Cherish write this...
