Sunday RideDay Pushing the cycle legs back into shape. Lots of strong headwinds on a very sunny day. Wanted 30, but Hains Point and some of the memorials are closed off from access as setups are in progress for some idiotic fireworks display. 25.10 cycle miles / 46.21 MTD . . #marathontraining #crosstraining #dmv #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #charitymiles #teamforkids #everymilematters #nyrr #Queenspace10k #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #MaratonValencia #blackmenrun #optoutside #instacyclists #cyclistsofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #whateverittakes #virtualnycfirstclass (at Hains Point) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzWCeXxHvdv/?igshid=18ha0voqa8nfa

Race Recovery Ride My legs felt great considering the hard half marathon yesterday. Best ride of the year so far. . . #marathontraining #crosstraining #dmv #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #charitymiles #teamforkids #everymilematters #nyrr #1fy1fy #govcupMT #BAA10K #Queenspace10k #Madisonmini #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #MaratonValencia #blackmenrun #optoutside #instacyclists #cyclistsofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #whateverittakes (at Sligo Creek Park And Trail) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx_L6cGnNd7/?igshid=hfzvzk7qcckn

It's Medal Monday! And another hashtag bites the dust. Time to celebrate my solo Medal Monday for August! A great time with the BMR brothers. Thanks to Captain Perry for the Madison Chapter for hosting a great weekend, including the post race lunch. Lots of pics of my post race tour of Madison, brief though it was, are following. I rather enjoyed it. Next: back to Philadelphia for the Humana Rock 'n Roll half marathon. . . #medalmonday #medalbling #motivationmonday #blackmenrun #roadtoValencia #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #Richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #nyrr #instarunners #runnerslife #runnersofinstagram #optoutside #wilrunsmadison #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #whateverittakes (at Madison Mini-Marathon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1WA0TgnZvn/?igshid=11o0ygoyjxnfo

Madison Mini Marathon RECAP Wow, what a day! My Airbnb was less than two miles away from the race festival on the University of Wisconsin campus, so I opted to just run a casual pace to get there. However, I was not expecting four nice hills along the way. Anyway, now I'm warmed up and I connect with the Black Men Run members for a group photo. Several of us were there from five or six cities. Race kicked off pretty well and then it started. My second nemesis behind Mother Nature, the hills! And I don't mean one or two. I was having flashbacks to the Governor's Cup Marathon in Montana. No one told me that Madison was hilly. Somebody set me up. I didn't ask for this. Somebody needs to get hurt. But, on the bright side, it's marathon hill training. Somebody kick me for being Mr. Positive. And that last mile. That hill from hell was dropping bodies like dead flies. Ridiculous! Speaking of Mother Nature, she behaved today. The weather was really nice. The race course, despite the hills, was very scenic. From running through the arboretum to the amazing lake views (lake coverage planned for tomorrow) it was truly a pleasant all around experience this morning. All before 9am. Imagine that. We've been invited to return for next year's race. So let's see what the calendar says. And yes, I ran back up those hills to the Airbnb after the race. I know my body hates me, but that's alright. The love will come back around again. Almost forgot. My buddy Tony is in the second pic with me. 16.41 miles / 78.74 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #maurten #blackmenrun #nyrr #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #wilrunsmadison #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #Aftershokz #whateverittakes (at Madison Mini-Marathon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1SUxKNAEyQ/?igshid=b8fnxqiaxdun

Shakeout Run Early morning run was on tap for today. Travel prep day for my trip to Madison. This was supposed to be 10-12 miles. Oops, he did it again. The pace was feeling good and I wanted that HM. But, that extra mile pushed my schedule into overdrive. Got home with less than an hour to cool down, shower, dress, ride my bike a mile away up some hills to give my paraplegic client his massage and smile. What's next? Sheesh! Oh, I almost forgot. I found a dime in mile six. 13.10 miles / 62.33 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #maurten #blackmenrun #nyrr #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #Aftershokz #whateverittakes (at Lake Artemesia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1MHhVbn3Sx/?igshid=owtyqt8flq6o

Hydration Pack Training Run Good grief, here we go again, down the trail with this thing whish wooshing like a washing machine. Today I only consumed the Maurten Drink Mix 320 and my beet juice with tumeric. I used one hydrogel at mile 11, which I realized was too late. But the test gave me the opportunity to see how long the drink mix would sustain in my system. Pain almost every where. PF in right foot, right knee kept buckling, both ankles, left hip ached and neck really tight. As we say, "it wasn't pretty, but I got it done." 17.02 miles / 49.23 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #maurten #blackmenrun #nyrr #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #Aftershokz #whateverittakes (at Anacostia Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1HC56MngTD/?igshid=fnjduxmrxu6b

Run the National Arboretum Ran from home to run 1 1/4 laps of those hills. Took my run all the way to the top. The Capitol Columns were my finish line. Didn't run as fast today, but the Maurten Drink Mix 320 still helped me climb those hills. Even without the brace I forgot to wear. Today I ate an avocado before consuming the drink mix. I wonder if that affected it some. The last time I used it, I didn't eat anything in conjunction with the mix, so it didn't have any substance in my stomach to compete with. 10.16 miles / 32.21 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #maurten #blackmenrun #nyrr #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #wilrunsdc #runnersofinstagram #BetheInspiration #Aftershokz #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #whateverittakes (at United States National Arboretum) https://www.instagram.com/p/B08nqh0nwe5/?igshid=4v2qp9jziqu6

Post Thunderstorm Run Where did that push come from? Electric charge still in the air? Maurten Drink Mix 320 still in my system from Sunday? I only had one hydrogel before my run today and it never kicks in like that. Or maybe my muscles are ready to finally work? Let's see what happens on the next run. The analysis continues. Guess my faster run slaughtered several gnat swarms because their little carcasses were clinging to my skin when I got home. Yuck! That's what running at sundown will get you. 8.05 miles / 22.05 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #maurten #blackmenrun #nyrr #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #Aftershokz #whateverittakes (at Lake Artemesia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B04p382lXzq/?igshid=1np373lqmuzn0

Hola, Agosto! Holy Mack Truck, Batman! My hip/pelvis zone feels like a truck hit me. I realized I was running harder today and really wanted to slow the pace because I left without my leg brace, again. So after analysis in motion, it occurred to me that the Maurten was driving me harder. This was the first time using the Drink Mix 320. I had been using the Drink Mix 160. I think I'll stay in the fast lane and let my body catch up lol In other news...At 2AM, I passed my RRCA test. Now on to the administrative stuff to make my certification official.

Hasta la vista, Julio! The push to that 100 miles was rough this month. Even today was a challenge. Mile 8 was when I realized that I forgot to put my brace on my wonderful left leg. Considering there was no easy way to get back to start meant it was time to bear down and just do it. Walked 1.5 miles after to get back home with a detour to 7-Eleven for a hot coffee recovery drink. Not my usual method, but I needed it today. Plus, that algae creek didn't look refreshing. Oh, yeah. I found a nickel in the road at the top of my big mile one. The effort was worth more than that, but I'll take it! 13.15 miles / 102.94 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official BTW, If you’re planning on running in the 2019 Detroit Free Press/TCF Bank Marathon the price increase is tonight at 11:59pm.

It's Medal Monday! As we say so long to another hashtag, we get to celebrate it on Medal Monday! An exciting and well run race (pun on words). It was great supporting another African American Founded and Operated organization. Not only that, they're Nonprofit. Thanks, Pace Runs! Finish lane photos included.

BMRDC Group Run NYPD forced part of the route cut right when we were about to leave the Start line for some event in the park. I should have kept running to top off the 10k, but we didn't know this had happened till post race. The steep bridge over the highway in mile one made me think about how I've been starting some of my training runs exactly the same way. Delightful LOL Besides that, a warm and sunny morning led to lots of excitement from the race crew, which built the energy of the runners. Got to meet them post race. Really nice people. Looking forward to my next event with them. 5.71 miles / 89.79 MTD Fueled by @Maurten_official . . #2019Freepambassador #roadtoValencia #charitymiles #teamforkids #blackmenrun #nyrr #Queenspace #Madisonmini #RnRPhiladelphia #painetopain #Freepmarathon #tcsnycmarathon2019 #richmondmarathon #MaratonValencia #optoutside #instarunners #runnersofinstagram #wilrunsdc #BetheInspiration #raceeverything #runeverywhere #virtualnycfirstclass #whateverittakes (at Flushing Meadows - Corona Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0d3e4vnWPw/?igshid=bguwtrzs7y43
