I have been negligent in updating my blog but then again that isn't the only thing.
Although I have been running as much as I can. I have been putting up 20-25 mile weeks consistently mixing in tempo, progressive and LSD runs to keep it feeling fresh.
I ran a distance PR a couple of weekends ago running from Hot Tuna on Great Neck Road, VA through the First Landing State Park, down the oceanfront boardwalk to Neptune's statue and all the way back to Hot Tuna. It was a 15 mile round trip and I surprisingly felt spent but could have done a couple more miles which was an awesome feeling. My knees and ITB was fine and I Roctane Gelled it at miles 5, 8, 12.
I will be doing the Tidewater Striders Distance series in Jan and Feb which is a 20k, 25k, and 30k race series through First Landing State Park. If I complete the 18 with no problems I will probably sign up for the SHamrock Full which will be my first ever marathon. We shall see.
Happy Holidays All and I hope Santa brings you lots of cool running stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stop neglecting your blog! Give me a running update. Hope your calf behaves too...
Hey I was reading your blog because I am an avid runner.. I love your stuff! I thought you may be interested in a new fitness line that is hitting the market at the end of Feb. A friend of mine is a sales representative for their company and she let me check out a sample. It's two women that are in the workout industry who developed fitness apparel based on a need. The clothing line is coming out at the end of Feb. and what they have created is a sweat proof pocket for your smart phone that sits on your side. I had the opportunity to try them and they are incredible, the material is fantastic.. I swear I looked two sizes smaller and they are so functional with the smart phone pocket on my hip. I could not even feel that it was there and it was compressed against my leg so it did not bounce. I am a business owner and I always need my phone on me but carrying it around is always problem. The company is called Fit Plus Wear, www.fitpluswear.com Functional Fitness Clothing with a PLUS! These pants are revolutionary and a must have for anyone that's active! I hope you check them out! Keep up the good work on your blog, loving all the information!
