i banged out another 5 quick miles last night. have the day off, so i bet i chalk up another 6.5-8 today.
fry, get on my level.
My Vizzi’s thing went off.
Jim, what shoe’s do you have?

ugh
I’m hitting up the trails at Chesnutt Ridge in a few here:tup: Keep running you fucks!
Mike I am running there Monday for the first time. Any tips on trails etc? I am taking the gf and will do anywhere from 5-10.
Drew, I’ve been trying to find a trail map to link up here…but google’s letting me down. If I get back out there today/tmrw I’ll grab a pick of the trail map and drop some notes on it. For the most part it’s pretty well marked, but there are some areas where I took a wrong turn. 5-10 through the trails will be a solid run…what’s great about it is there are so many spots to ‘take it in’ and climb around on shit. Example: if you make it down to the eternal flame to the right of that waterfall is a ~30’ wall of tree roots with erroded dirt that basically turn the roots into a ladder that you can climb up, big time fun. Wear shoes you don’t mind muddin up a bit, and give yourself a few hours to really check the place out. There are two main trails; Blue and Orange. I have yet to do all of the orange because I always wander off it and find new shit to explore.
If I don’t back in here with that map…park off of Seufert Rd. There will be little turn off where you can see the trail entrance. See if this link works…
I knocked off another 3.3 last night. (Took my cell phone/gps with me to find out.) Took me a hair over half an hour but I don’t care. I’m running for the sake of being in motion not to beat a clock and my knee didn’t hurt so I was happy. My shins started to get that real tight burning feeling this time. I tried kicking my heels a little more because it felt like I was getting kind of lazy and wouldn’t you know that the pain went away? I’m starting to enjoy this shit. Drake radio on Pandora sets a real nice mellow pace, the kenton cheerleaders were walking home while I was jogging, and cool breeze with a nice low warm sun topped it off just right. I think I’ll do it again tonight!
Ha. Chris I just looked up what my shoe is that I’m running in and apparently my cross trainers are actually advertised as trail running shoes. They’re “Adidas Yukon Trail II”.
adidas Yukon Trail II Heed the call of the hills in the Yukon Trail shoe from adidas. This technical trail shoe features a breathable mesh upper with durable synthetic trim, and a soft non-slip lining. The EVA insole promises lasting comfort; the EVA midsole delivers lightweight support. Resilient cushioning protects the forefoot and ensures a dynamic toe-off, while the TRAXION® cleat design delivers maximum grip in all directions. Enjoy adidas Yukon Trail II experience.
^ If you are running on trails then those are good shoes. Personally I’m a huge fan of Asics: http://www.asicsamerica.com/products/category.aspx?PARENT_CATEGORY_ID=250001538 , they make great basic running shoes, really good arch support, light weight and reasonably priced. They also make amazingly light track cleats, which is why I’m a huge fan lol.
canisus had their female track team out the other day. god bless college girls.
I was about to go to the gym and then run again. But I sat down to read a little out of The Grand Design. I never would have guessed that quantum physics would have put me to sleep. I woke up an hour later and now I have to go to dinner. Maybe after dinner…
If you wanna run later fry id be in.
Sidewalks. :tup: I wish there were trails nearby but I’m lucky if I can make an hour for a workout so I’m not going to be able to typically drive half an hour to Chestnut ridge or something. Maybe once in a while.

I’m going to a 6:30 dinner with the wife’s family, so I’m guessing that by the time I’m off duty you’ll already be half in the bag. You should be anyway. :squint:
Prob not. I will prob be doing hw tonight. Maybe have a few beers later.

I’ve already given up running outside… I’m doing my average 3 mile warm up on either the inside 1/8 track or on a treadmill before lifting.
pussy.
I better keep my UB student ID. If they don’t swipe it I can use the track at alumni for free.
