Outdoor Recreation \• December 24, 2011
Christmas Eve Saturday outdoor ramble with John Chun. Down the riverfront from Overton to the Steel Bridge, with some mobility work after 5 minutes, plus jumping, scaling fences — at one point, some homeless people called out to me, while I was sitting perched on top of a chain link gate, waiting for John, who [...] Outdoor Recreation \• December 17, 2011
Saturday I got out for a 45 minute ramble through Montford, to play in the steeply sloped Montford Community Center playground, and to scramble and sprint up the hills from the bottom of the Asheville Cemetery. Heart pounding, sweat drenched, I sprinted hills, clambered over fences and walls, leaped benches, scrambled on trees, ran stairs; [...] Outdoor Recreation \• December 10, 2011
On Saturday I went out for about 45 minutes for a great ramble, down the street, under the bridge, across the creek, along the avenue, on the byways, through the woods behind the USDA research center, scrambling along and jumping over fallen logs, box jumping up rock walls, going over fences, balancing, leaping from object [...] Conditioning \• September 4, 2011
Week IV, Workout A Normally, a Sunday is a rest day for me but my endurance needs work, and my love handles are soft, so, a short run won’t hurt me, I figure. I took week III off of running, but week IV began with a slightly longer run than the runs I was doing [...] Conditioning \• August 25, 2011
Another Run… Week II, Workout D. Thursday, August 25th, pre-lunch one mile run: 8:02. Best time of the first two weeks. It was hot, and I felt heavy. At the end it felt like about 90% RPE. A little less tweakage in my feet and knees from the new shoes today, but I felt some [...] Health Reports \• August 19, 2011
Yesterday I tried on the New Balance Minimus… not impressed with the feel. I ended up buying a very light but stiff and well padded traditional running shoe by NB — the model I chose was the M780SL1. I think the “barefoot” running thing is not for me, after all. *Background: I trained for “barefoot” [...] CrossFit Asheville WODS \• April 5, 2011
Monday morning, after a night of not too bad sleep, such as it was, I made it to the 6:00 am class at CFA, rested, fasted, caffeinated… and I thought the plan for the WOD looked good. It turned out to be good, leaving me sore, tired, hungry, and satisfied all day. Hang Power Cleans [...] CrossFit Asheville WODS \• March 21, 2011
Monday morning I made it to the 6:00 am class to do the WOD at CFA, where I was pleased to find another round of Shanna’s new style programming! These workouts emphasize training for “MAP” (which means training for “maximum aerobic power”), and stem from her recent certification with OPT. The basic idea is that [...] Outdoor Recreation \• November 18, 2010
Early AM loaded up and went outside into the cold. I briefly limbered up (pose drills, bear crawl, lunges) and then set out on my 1.1 mile run. The familiar route gets shorter and shorter! Result: 7:19.45 (6:39.48 min/mile pace). Pretty awesome. I intended to do 80-85% RPE, and ended up with a time only [...] Outdoor Recreation \• November 16, 2010
Dragged myself out of bed for a 6:00 am session on the road. It was tough to motivate but worth it. Route: the same old “Montford Crawl 5k” I’ve been working on since the Half in September. Protocol: 60 seconds walking/recovery, 30 seconds sprint (this is a 2/3 walking 1/3 running protocol, aka a 33% [...] |
