Qik - RC002 - Lots of Snow by Scott Moore

Driving Snow - 95days til BAA115 by awedjob at Garmin Connect - Details

When it snows, the temperature rises. That made me a bit warmer today and a little happier. The tiny snow flakes smacking me in the face did not make me happy.

Qik - 97 days Until BAA115 by Scott Moore

97 Days 'til BAA115 by awedjob at Garmin Connect - Details

Stopped off at Mercado Central for some Huevos Rancheros with just 15 min. remaining in my run but man was I hungry. Eat like a peasant. Corn, rice and beans with eggs and cheese. So good.

Countdown App

After looking high and low for close to an hour I finally found a countdown clock that did what I wanted it to. Countdown is a Google Chrome Extension that may not be pretty but it is straight up simple.

I especially like the little clock on the tool bar that shows the number of days remaining. What would be even better is if I could make Google Calendar do it but alas there is no way I could find to achieve this. If there was/is then I would be able to check my calendar from my phone or anywhere and know how many days remained and what day of training I needed to be on.

Life gets busy and I miss a day or two of training. Getting back on track is much easier if I know where to pick back up again. This little gem will help me do that with ease. Thank you Mermin for making it.

100 Days Until BAA115

I'm about to head out for a training run as I get ready for the 115th Boston Marathon. There's 100 days until race day. I've been slacking something serious but no more. Cold weather be damned. Even if it is 4°F/-16°C, the sun is shining and I feel good.

Not sure how long I will be out. I'm thinking 90 minutes. Don't have a specific time because I haven't charted out my training schedule. This far out I'm sure it won't matter a whole lot. So long as I am smart about my pace and keep my feet under me I should be alright.


I've got Qik on my phone so recording and posting videos will be MUCH easier than the last time I did this sort of thing.
