So I ran today for the first time in two weeks! Now there are several reasons for that including, Hurricane Sandy, and Andrew’s wedding last weekend. But the biggest reason is the end of daylight savings time, making it dark by the time I get home from work! I hate running in the dark. I [...]
So for most of the summer, I hobbled through my runs and wondered if this is what it’s going to be like from now on… will I ever run as well as I did only a year or two before. But since the summer ended, my times have been steadily dropping and I obviously feel [...]
Ok so a new Edward’s Running Rule – If you are running down the sidewalk and it’s almost dark, DON’T think to yourself “I better slow down because I may trip, and I really don’t want to do that because I have my new iPhone in my hand!” because if you do think that you [...]
So tonight was my last training run before Saturday’s 5K. I decided that I would run a nice flat course. The run didn’t start real great I felt ok, but I was a little slow over the the first mile close to 10 minutes. The good thing was that was my slowest mile. While the [...]
So this has been an interesting week! We felt the first earthquake on the east coast in 100 years and today we learned that they are evacuating William & Mary! So Elizabeth had to scramble to get a ticket to come home. She luckily got a ticket and the train is on it’s way leaving [...]

Today I noticed that as I went up and down the stairs, my knee did not hurt! Then the rain stopped after work and I thought maybe I’ll try to run! So I cued up the iPod with some blues that I put on it today and took off, hoping to make 30 minutes. Well, [...]
Ok so it was easier yesterday spending the morning with Crooks and Liars.com than this morning where I spent it pounding the pavement. After a long winter layoff due to not liking to run in the dark and a knee that’s not quite right, I started running again on Sunday. Sunday was just two half [...]
