It's time. It is time.

I've signed up for the Port Land Grille Battleship 5k, November 6th. It's been about 8 months since my last race, and I'm definitely in better shape this time around. I wouldn't say that I'm in better running shape, but I do feel more healthy overall. I'm anticipating a 21:00 finish, but it would be nice to come in sooner. Of course.

Autumn running is the bestest

Gotta love getting out there around fall time. The temperature's just right, there's some nice smells in the air, and there are road races abound. I've got my eye on a 5K this Friday. There's another one on 11/6, and yet another on 11/12. Something tells me that it's about time for a time trial.

Back into it

We visited the fam in Salt Lake City last week, and I had set aside approximately zero minutes during the trip for running. I'm feeling it this week, too, now that I'm back to hitting the gym. Just did 20 minutes on the bike and 15 minutes running. Weak, I know. The weather's getting nice out there, and I'm thinking of switching my workouts up, maybe catching a couple of those "local runs" I keep yammering on about.

The bum foot hasn't really been giving me problems, but I haven't run more than five miles on it since the injury. Naturally, I'm hesitant to build up to any long distances. But...we'll see how the next couple of months go.
