Long-Term Running Goals: I guess at this point I just want to keep running for fitness and weight control. Personal: I was born in Moscow, Russia in '68, where I started running sprint events in '83. I moved to the US (NYC area) in '91 and didn't run again till '96 when I discovered road racing scene. I was hooked after my first 5K race. I had another break in running from '01-'04 and decided to seriously get back into it in August of '05. I'm married and have 16 year old daughter. I have moved to London in August '06, will probably stay here for a few years. |

This was my first run after essentially 2 weeks of no running (2 runs in 2 weeks). Needless to say, I felt lethargic and very slow. My legs felt like jelly. I almost didn't look at Garmin the entire way, partially because it was dark, and partially because I knew I wouldn't see anything good. My only wish now is to get back to the same level I was 2 weeks ago by Sept. 9, when I have my 10K.

Did progression run today, where my last 10 min. were supposed to be at half marathon pace. I ran it by feel since I have no idea what my half marathon pace is right now, being so out of shape. I got 1.3mi @7:54 pace, not that bad, really. Overall, I felt better than yesterday despite some soreness in my legs and having slept only 5 hours last night.
I'm glad I could get out for a run, because things are crazy stressful now. We're moving on Saturday, and until today, nothing was packed. We made big progress today, but still about half of the stuff remains unpacked. At the same time, I'm taking a training class at work, and tomorrow I have 1 hour long certification exam. I have no time to study for it, so whatever happens, happens.

| Did my run despite being extremely stressed about the move. I ran about 6 miles and the time was somewhere around 53 min, but I don't remember exactly, have to check my watch. Now (after the move) we have no internet connection at the new apartment yet, so I have to write at work for now, and of course I don't have my running watch with me! | | Add Comment |

No running - Moving Day. It was crazy, we stayed up all night, ran out of boxes, but got it all done in time. The move was only 1 mile from our old place, but the pain is almost the same as our move from NJ to CA, or from NJ to the UK! Now there are 30 boxes and 6 suitcases all over the apartment, but at least we don't have to unpack them all right away.
In the evening had to go to the old apartment to clean up. I was really dead by the evening with the lack of sleep and all the stress. Thank God it's over! The good news is that we like the new place and the neighborhood much more than the old one. | | Add Comment |
