10 mile run on the Nike campus.

Today was a 10 mile run on the Nike campus.

Last few days easy running

Today I did an easy 6 mile run and finished on the track with an 800m @ 2:20. I also did some light weight training. The last three days I took one rest day and did some light jogging.

2 mile warmup, 4 mile tempo run, weight lifting

Today I was feeling a bit lethargic. I ended up doing an easy 4 mile tempo run @ 5:45 pace and finishing with a 64 second 400m to wake myself up. I finished my workout with about 1/2 hour of weight training.

8 mile run on the Nike campus

Feeling a bit sore. Put in 8 miles on the Nike campus.

10 mile run on the Nike campus.

I was super busy with gigs this weekend and didn't get any runs in. I just did some light jogging last week with some weight training. I am hoping to get in some good mileage this week.

1 hour run and some light weight training

Today was a 1 hour recovery run and some light weights. I am a bit sore from the last three days of hard training.

10 miles today last 5 miles @ 5:45 pace

I had a nice 5 mile tempo run @ 5:45 pace. It felt surprisingly easy and I finished with a 2:18 last 800m. I did this workout with my good friend Jason Odem who is the track and x-country coach at Blanchet high school in Seattle Washington.

10 mile run on the wildwood trails

A hilly run up to on the Wildwood trails. Feeling pretty good. I had a nice recovery snack with a big bowl of Chia seed chocolate pudding that I made.

10 miles last 4 miles 5:55 pace

Ran on the nike campus then hit the track for some faster miles at 5:55 pace. Yesterday was 40 minutes on the step machine with 20 minutes of weight training.

8 mile run on Nike campus

Today was an 8 miler. I was a bit sore from the weight training yesterday. Also I put in about 5 hours of practicing the piano today.

50 minute run and some weight training

Today was an easy 50 minute run. I also went to the gym and did the elliptical for 10 minutes and the rowing machine for 5 minutes. I also did some lower and upper body weight training. My right achilles is still a little sore. I will probably be doing some cross training for the next few days.

10 mile run today

Yesterday was a full day of piano playing. I had two gigs and played about 6 hours. I had so much fun performing with bassist Andre St James and Drummer, Todd Straight. The last 4 days I averaged about 8 miles. On Thursday I had about 14 miles that day. Today I ran 10 miles and finished with the last two miles 5:40 pace on a hilly course.

40 min run, 20 minute bike, weight training

Still mixing it up with a little cross training. The next few days will consist of alternating high mileage and low mileage with some form of cross training every day.

Fresh pressed organic vegetable and fruit juice

Today I had two pints of fresh pressed organic spinach, apple, ginger, cucumber, and kale juice. I always take some digestive enzymes before and after I juice. If I consume a wide variety of fresh pressed vegetable juice on a daily basis, i will notice quicker recovery from workouts, better skin tone, better night vision, the ability to see colors more vividly, better concentration, better sleep, higher energy, and much more.

easy 10 mile run

Today I played piano at two early morning church services. Later I did a 10 mile run on the Nike campus. Feeling a little sore but happy to be able to put in 10 miles.

Great Day at the Olympic Trials

I saw some amazing performances at the Olympic trials. I witnessed the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. Its great to see so many Olympic bound track athletes stand up in front of thousands of people and share their faith. I believe God honors those who honor Him and it was truly evident today at the Olympic trials. Today I did 1 hour of running in McMinnville in the morning. I also finished with the 3 minute blank. I also did 100 push ups. I am going to work up to 100 miles per week. I believe I can achieve this with a lot of good recovery.
