I'm still here

I'm still here although I doubt anyone reads these anymore.  Oh well, I'm writing this for me.

I haven't posted in over 2 months but I'm still training.  My run up to the IBM Uptown Classic 10K was great but I've been unmotivated since then.  Training with the personal trainer is going well and I continue to get stronger and stronger.  Also, I went snowboarding earlier this month and I found a new expensive hobby to participate in.

Regarding running, I'm still doing it but with not as much desire and motivation as I used to.  Work has been wearing me down and it's affecting pretty much every aspect of my life unfortunately.  I'm doing what I can to fix that but I need to find joy in running again to keep me running.

The highlight was the IBM Uptown Classic 10K on October 6th.  Or 7th.  It was the first Sunday of October.  My time was 45:59 and I PRed by about 41 seconds.  They changed the course and it wasn't as hilly as it used to be.  And I felt pretty good going into it as well.

Other than that, I'm running but not with a real purpose.  It's better than not running though.  I've put 126 miles on pavement over the last 2.5 months for an average of about 12-13 miles a week which I guess that isn't bad at all.  So, hey, when doing the stats, that's not so bad.

But I do know it's time for new shoes.

Asics mileage: 214.5 miles
