Google Snow Maker
I auto-upload my cell phone pictures to Google+ and was surprised to see the animated GIF snow added to a couple of my photos over the past couple months. Neat stuff, Google seems to analyze the photos with great accuracy. -
Outdoors at Lincoln Woods
Finaly got outside again, Lincoln Woods is my go-to after snowstorms. The park has a paved road that wraps around picturesque Onley Pond, two loops is about 5 miles. Today was a great day, temperatures were around 32F, sunny, and I was full of energy.Unfortunately knee pain has been my 2014 struggle, today I made it three miles before the kee really started to bother me. I attribute the pain from overtraining, from ramping up both mileage and speed. Hopefully that’s all. I recently hit a new 5K speed PR and January was a new distance/month PR, 70 miles.
Plan right now is to slow things down a bit, squeeze in some additional rest days. Hopefully the knee gets better soon. -
1,000 Miles, Journey Continues
RunKeeper is the best! Constantly sending me emails with accomplishments that would otherwise go unnoticed. February is off to a great start, new PR, although knee pain continues on and off. Need to learn how to better pace myself and keep my runs consistent. -
January 2014 Run Update
This photo was from my run today on the Blackstone Valley Run Path, most refer to it as a Bike Path. The run was tough today, still dealing with sore knee that has been causing me problem for the past month or so. On a positive note, I’ve been able to rack up some decent miles so far this month. I know the knee issue will improve with time, so I’m just focused on running whatever I can. So far I’m up to 37.8 miles for the month, on the higher end of my usual.
I have big hope for 2014, and so far I’m please with how things are going.
