23 Miles in the Cold Rain on the Hills of Tyler State Park Never Felt So Good!
OK, so here I am writing this post again. Somehow all the text vanished and I was left with just the photos on this post. I will do my best to recreate my post from this morning. Today’s run starting at 6:00am when it was still dark. It was cold, rainy and […]
Boston Training – New Coach, New Plan .. So Far So Good!
So starting with New Year’s Day I have a new coach and a new training plan for Boston. The reasons for the change were fairly simply. For one, I simply felt like I needed a change. Secondly, Johnny Marino Advanced Sports Chiropractic while an awesome coach, is going through so much, including recovering from surgery […]
Boston Training Week One!
Week one had it all. It started with snow and brutally cold temperatures and ended with temperatures well over 60F. I had to decide on a new training plan and ended up asking Dr. Johnny Marino to help me once again. Johnny has been going through so much recently that I wasn’t sure he would […]
An Early Morning Relaxed 11 Miles – Getting Close Now
http://connect.garmin.com/dashboard?cid=18305526 Today Coach Marino had me run a 80 minute run. He had worked on my hamstring yesterday and today it felt much better. I felt a little something but I think that was just soreness from the graston technique he perform on my hamstring. I had to get the run in early today so […]
Heat Acclimation Run!
For today’s run Coach Johnny had on the schedule an 8 mile run. I ran this at lunch to take advantage of the 90F heat. I have been making sure that I am hydrating and using electrolyte supplements as well. This seems to be working. Also being the middle of the day I made […]

Twice the Run, Twice the Fun??
So today Coach Johnny (www.jkmhealth.com https://www.facebook.com/Adv.Sports.Chiro) had me start doubling. The morning run was an very very easy run with no calories beforehand. Only a little bit of coffee and water. It is tough to go as slow as Johnny wants but I am following the plan. The concept is to use this run to teach […]
