Hello Monday, Here is my first video blog post!

I picked up a Flip MinoHD video camera last week so I have decided to do a video blog post to change things up! I also learned how to use my web cam finally (don't ask). I complained that there are only so many ways to explain another 3 hour ride and 30 min brick run, so here is another way. Man, I must do a lot of rambling, but here I am in the flesh and blood explaining things not in the written word. Enjoy! (and excuse my lazy eyelid. I can't help it! haha!)....oh and you might need to up the volume a bit @ times...I have no way to balance the audio between my web cam and Flip.

Wow! I didn't mean to ramble on for 10 minutes! OOPS! If you got bored, at least skip ahead to the very end. I think its funny and its the first time that has happened to me since I was a kid.

Sunday I did the 15K race. Here is my post race reaction!

As promised, here are my splits:
15K(9.3 miles), 1:06:04 / 7:07 pace avg
Mile 1: 7:21
Mile 2: 6:44
Mile 3: 7:42 (WTF?)
Mile 4: 6:57
Mile 5: 7:05
Mile 6: 7:08
Mile 7: 6:59
Mile 8: 7:00
Mile 9: 6:56
last 0.3: 2:10

That mile 3 split KILLED my overall average! GAH! Oh well! I am still super pumped with how I did today. After a 5K warmup, the race, and a .6 mile cool down, I rounded out the day with 13.1.


Since I parked a block away from the Shake Shack on 77th & Columbus, I couldn't pass up the opportunity for some uber greasy recovery food:

NOM NOM NOM NOM!!!

Hope you have a good Monday! Crank up your volume LOUD for this classic. Hope it "electrifies" you!
