Needed to make sure I could pass my apft for the army.  I was worried about my IT band, I have run only once since the Salmon Marathon, and had pain.  So I've been stretching, and using the foam roller since.  No pain on this short run, so hopefully the IT band is good! fairly slow for two miles but it was a tester (17:21).

and thanks, Lysa for inviting Wendy and I to the blog. We need the extra willpower sometimes!

From Lysa on Sat, Oct 22, 2011 at 19:14:38 from 67.166.122.134

Ha! Feeling discombobulated can be so uncomfortable! {I think.} Really I have no idea what that means, but it sounds bad. :) I know all about the running on no caffeine. I don't recommend it.

Ya.. the blog is that. Extra willpower. Hope it helps! I'm so glad you two are here!

I totally know how you feel. I wake up at 4:00 am just so I can have my coffee and run at 4:30 - sick isn't it. And I choose my gels based on flavor but mostly caffeine content! Welcome to the blog!

Okay so BIG thanks to Lysa for posting on my FB wall and making me feel guilty for not running!  THANK YOU!!!!!!  I needed it, I've been layin and lickin as we say in the Army.  What a beautiful morning to be out running, 35 degrees sunny no wind no people just me and my tunes.  For everyone close to my age, Tears of a Clown by English Beat, what a kick ass running song! Plus it takes you back to younger days and makes you forget how old you're gettin.  Thanks again Lysa I really needed that.

Good easy 4 miler, hard to keep slow but I'm building back up the mileage so I didn't want to push it.  4.2 miles = 40 min.  On a side note I've gone almost exclusively to 80's alternative on pandora while I run.

80's alternative - what's that, like, Flock of Seagulls?

smart choice to go easy on the paces while increasing the mileage.

From allie on Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 15:10:57 from 24.10.191.18

nice run, and nice 80's alternative. i hope sonic youth is included in there...

From Lysa on Tue, Nov 15, 2011 at 14:35:32 from 67.166.122.134

You better have some Oingo Boingo. And even though its an early 90's band, you have to have some offspring. Just bc they remind me of you! Nice run Thayne!

30 min Fartlek (5 min slow 2 min fast).  Started out windy but it seemed to die down or I quit noticing because my body was like what? WHAT???  oh yeah my pandora station is named oingo boingo so it plays "like bands" Flock of Seagulls=Yes, but no Depeche Mode.  lol Sonic Youth and Offspring play on my Bad Religion station which may the station of choice for my next hard training day!

I'm a little mad, I should have checked outside, but I didn't because I thought the pollution would be bad.  Then I go out for lunch and it is super clear and fairly warm, and I ran on the stupid treadmill again. lol such is life
