I Swear I am a Runner! Did 2.25 in 17 tonight

All three of my soccer seasons are over. Sunday league is over for a month....My focus is to get in shape to join one of the two premier teams that want me. Surely I would be the oldest plyer on either team..... Indoor Center closed down (5 points in longwood) but I got to be part of the last night. We lost in co-ed too. I will start playing on a Weds team...maybe tomorrow. But at least I ran tonight. If I don't play soccer tomorrrow night, I am in for a 3 miler. Stay tuned. Visiting the Crohn's Doctor (Dr. Shafran in Winter Park) tomorrow.

2.2 in 96 degree heat

my first run in quite a while. Crohn's was feeling OK so I put in a toasty warm run in the heat (96 degrees) at an 8 minute pace (after I mowed and washed 2 cars). I may run to cuch tomorrow morning. Felt good.

Soccer the Past Two Nights - I Swear I am Going to Run AND Bike Tomorrow.

Lost 3-2 in co-ed last night at Red Bug. Tied 6-6 indoors (Longwood Sports Center) tonight. Our big goal scorer (David Slocum da man) was missing so I filled in the slack with 4 goals. Nice, but I should have had 8. Tomorrow I plan to bike 12 miles, then run just 1 mile. I am also going to the gym. Ok, 2 out of 3. Not sure which...but I commit to doing 2 of those 3 activities. Stay tuned for which ones. The Crohn's was KILLING me the last 2 days. Makes it tough to run, but soccer is a good outlet for me.

First Ever Serious Road Bike Ride Followed By a Run..Sprint Triathalon Anyone?

Yeah, so at dinner last night some friends are talking about sprint triathalons. One of my friends even completed the bike portion on a beach cruiser. Well, I think I may go for it. So this morning I biked 10.8 miles. I hadn't biked this far on a road bike ever so running was not in the cards. Just to see what it felt like on tired legs, I did run 1/2 mile. I think I can do this...it just was tough because of some Crohn's related issues (I will leave it at that) I have been having today. Anyway, Sean...I know you are thinking about it, and would without a doubt demolish whatever time I can pull off..keep me posted as to whether or not you are going to do a sprint-triathalon. If you are in the Orlando area and looking to train for a sprint-triathalon (there are upcoming ones in Orlando on Sept 15 and October 7th) let me know.

Oh, and if I feel ok, I am going to get in a 2 mile run tonight then another 10 mile plus bike ride tomorrow.
