All the lonely people

A mixed bag of feelings about last night’s 5000m in London, ON…

And if you reach up.. then I will reach up too

I have two track races in my crosshairs and I’m pretty excited for both of them. The first will be a 5000m in London, ON, the second stop in the 401 Series. Ten days later I’ll race a 10 000m at the Prefontaine Classic.

In the month of May

When I was finishing up my warm-up and looking down (and I mean down!) Yonge st I was really motivated to post a good time and take advantage of the fast course and the ideal weather conditions. When the gun went off I went right to lead and made it obvious to the other racers that I was going to push for a fast timesh the pace.

Please don’t slow me down if I’m going too fast

Today I was in the pool for 90 minutes because my foot flared up again in the same spot (left ball of foot at second toe) as last fall. This happens because my second toe is longer than my first (like many people) and every time I come off my foot the end of my second metatarsal is the last point of contact and takes a beating.

Did I read it all wrong? Have I just not gotten it yet?

There are two reasons why I felt compelled to write another blog only two days after my last post. First off, there was an historic race in Boston yesterday and secondly, IAAF finally released the 2012 Olympic standards.

Scotia Bank Montreal 1/2 marathon and World Series of Power…

Who wants to hear their heartbeat?

Track is back! I had my first big track workout last Friday that, both, set up the 1/2 this weekend and, also will get me ready for more track.

I want to be a part of it

I was hoping to surprise myself this weekend and I did by running 62:42 in the New York City Half Marathon. Luckily the weather was perfect and we had a nice tailwind for the last 3 miles!

You got to find yourself another piece of the action

It was announced last night that myself, Eric and Rob will all be running the 2011 Scotia Bank Toronto Waterfront Marathon on October 16th.

y’all feel me even if it’s in swahili

Last two Kenya Blogs… On Tuesday I did my last workout on my Kenyan training camp in the form of 6 X 800m…

If you smile and agree I will understand

Discovery XC in Eldoret is arguably one of the most competitive XC races anywhere in the world and it went down on Sunday. Larry, Declan (Irish Physio), Fran (Spanish 3:38 guy), Rogers (local Kenyan) and I made the trip from Iten to watch the race.
