Grass Work

Well, this entry was supposed to be done last night but I got caught up putting in a set of recessed light in the basement so you could see the dartboard and behind the bar better. I thought sure 5 lights would have been enough for the basement but I thought wrong. It is pretty dark especially with the dark green color I chose to paint it, so 7 lights it is.

Today I actually have some running to write about. Yesterday our New Balance Boston team got together at Weston fields for some grass fartleks. We had a solid group of 5 guys so it was nice to have a crowd. It went very well all things considered and now I may actually do a thanksgiving day road race. Not sure which one yet but I will find one to jump in as a lark.

The workout:

4 x 3 mins
2 min rest

4 x 2 mins
2 min rest

4 x 1 min
1 min rest

After the first minute of the first repeat I thought I was going to quit the workout. Everything felt too fast and uuncomfortable. Midway through the second one things started coming back to my legs and I could spin them over and felt a lot more at ease on the grass. There were a few where I was even able to keep up with Justin which was a big step up from the work I have been doing. Hopefully my legs are started to get back underneath me from

This morning is going to be a long run with Christy Mae, Dan, and Yvonne.

Don't forget to cheer for the Pats today as they take out their anger of two losses in a row on the overmatched Packers in the the underserving "Title Town."

That's all I got.
