Yesterday: 4.2 miles (on the treadmill) with 5X 1/2 k incline repeats. Real easy pace.
I'll post more on my thoughts about treadmills at some point. I know some folks see them as blasphemy but I find them useful.
Went to a friends house for dinner and had Nugget Nectar on tap, plus some Victory Moving Parts ipa and Three Floyds Alpha Klaus porter.

Last night:
1 glass of Corbieres. 1 each: Lagunitas IPA and Troegs Nugget Nectar.
Listened to Gentle Giant.
No exercise to speak of.

This is my first post in what will no doubt be a lot of stuttering to find the will to continue doing this. I guess a good start would be not already confessing to being lazy but I really can be just that.
I used to keep a written running log but I can't even read my own writing at times so in early 2013 I started logging my runs (and bike rides, as well as snippets of vacation stories and beer drinking) in a word document. This will be a continuation of that. At some point - if I can figure out how - I may even post pictures of various things. You may or may not see me in these pictures. What you will see, if anything, is beer and traveling photos; and I suppose anything else I feel like shooting (with a cell phone camera, that is).
The title of this blog comes from a mountain in a famous East Coast national park. My wife and I got married very close to this park in 2006 and have been going there for 20 years.
On February 25th I registered for the Mt Washington Road Race lottery. Over 7 miles and 4,650 vertical feet of pure fun. If I get in I have to get to the finish in 3 hours and 2 minutes and there is concern that this may not happen. My weekly mileage lately has been a staggering 20, sometimes a bit more or less. It is not unlike me to get lazy in the winter (or anytime) but even for me this is ridiculous. These are the times when I question whether I am really a runner. I haven't "raced" since the 2013 Rothrock Challenge and I needed a goal so maybe Mt Washington is it. I will find out March 20th.
