“What ever happened Tuesday is so slow”

Whatever happened
Tuesday is so slow

Van Morrison, covered by Jimmy Buffett     “Brown Eyed Girl”

I feel like I should give Jimmy a shout out before he sends me a bill. I am using a lot of his material,

5 p.m. 58* wind NE 10 to 15 mph. Beach conditions very nice, flat and firm

Today was designed to be a recovery day. Happily, I got in 4 miles in 46 minutes, not too bad. I decided to try this one Kenyan Style, that is wearing sweats for the entire run. About 3 miles into the run I began to feel smooth and relaxed. Each mile was a little quicker and the final mile was under 10 minutes. I guess those Kenyans know what they are doing. I had to keep something in the tank for West Coast swing dancing tonight. Quadriceps were sore after the run but, remarkably, got better as we continued dancing. We just got home. Its 10:30 heading for bed.

Just a note. have noticed that constructing blogs while I am running makes my workouts and Miles go much quicker. Today I started writing in my head about how I began running and the effects that my brothers had on me in those early days in the 50s. If things go as expected I plan to post that blog tomorrow. Goodnight

  1. Hello Joan I am glad you are enjoying my post. It was so nice of John to make it available to the class of 61. I am truly impressed by all marathoners no matter what age. I’ve never tried it and probably never will. It seems too imposing. My longest race is a 5K. I am glad you are well enough to be running and hope you continue. Thank you for commenting.
