Week of 5/24/2010

5/26/10
1.9 miles in 18:58/Split 9:58
Kalihi St Loop. My GPS watch died before the first mile so I had to estimate 2 miles and came up a little short. I used the music, from my iPod, to estimate the elapsed time. I felt pretty good but it was nearly dark when I finished.

5/30/10
2 miles in 19:52/Split 9:57
Kalihi St Loop. Was supposed to run on Wednesday but dragged my feet until Sunday. Shh...cover your ears...I walked 2x for about 10 sec towards the end.

5/17/10
2 miles in 21:06/Split 10:33
Bishop Museum campus. Loop is just over three-quarters of a mile (see the map above). The run wasn't flat at all but I think my GPS watch was way off:

Forerunner 305: ascent – 670 ft, total elevation change – 1398 ft
Google Maps: ascent – 93 ft, total elevation change – 180 ft


Me thinks Google Maps is the more accurate measuring tool.

5/17/10
2 miles in 20:18/Split 10:10
Kalihi St Loop. First time I didn't stop at the mile-and-a-half point, to rest for 10-15 seconds, and then restart.

A Beginning…hopefully!


2010 has been a difficult year for running. During the past year, I've been so busy in my life.

During the last 12 months, I've:

  • Entered the state of matrimony (got married!)
  • Started working 2 jobs
  • Suffered from vertigo
  • Moved
  • Had a baby…okay my wife did most of the work ;-)

I've only ran a handful of times in the last few months. I'm either busy, tired, lazy or all of the above!
