Day One Hundred and Eight

Sunday, 27 May 2007
Ran 4 miles in gougane. Parked near the hotel and then did the loop. That was great fun, although the hill was tough.
4 miles - 42:34

Day One Hundred and Four

Wednesday, 23 May 2007
Since the dog has been home alone the last few days (in addition to yesterday evening when I was at camogie), I decided to take him out for a run in Gougane Barra. It was a gorgeous sunny day and we had a good time. I worried about him overheating but he did okay.
3 miles - 32.33

Day One Hundred

Saturday, 19 May 2007
3 miles in the Killarney National Park. Beautiful run even if it did rain for the first bit of it.
3 miles - 36.09

Day Ninety-Nine

Friday, 18 May 2007
2 miles in the environs of the Killarney Lake Hotel. Nice run, weather not too bad.
2 miles - 22.14

Day Ninety-Eight

Thursday, 17 May 2007
Brilliant morning run - the sky was light but the sun wasn't up yet. Can't believe how bright it is at 5 am.
1 mile - 12.21

Day Ninety-Four

Monday, 14 May 2007
Beautiful morning for a run. Mile around the house in the bright sunshine.
1 mile - 12.10

Day Ninety-Three

Sunday, 13 May 2007

Quick mile around the house first thing. The cows were on the hill across the road - they're really something. I still can't get over living in a place where there are cows right outside my house most mornings.

1 mile - 12.93

Day Eighty

Monday, 30 April 2007
Most of today had a misty rain hanging in the air, but it cleared up this afternoon. Toby and I had a lovely run - out past Quills and then back up a bit of the lake road before we turned around and came home. I was doing about 9 minute miles.
4 miles - 42.47

Day Sixty-Nine

Friday, 20 April 2007
Another mile around the house on a warm, sunny day.
1 mile - 12.08

Thursday, 19 April 2007
just another mile around the house. Brilliantly sunny and warm.
1 mile - 11.59

Day Sixty-Seven

Wednesday, 17 April 2007

Up early this morning so I got the one mile in. It was nice - the sun hadn't yet risen and there was mist on the lake and a little of fog around the mountains. It turned into a gorgeous day. we've really been lucky with the weather lately.

1 mile - 12.01

Day Sixty-Six

Tuesday, 17 April 2007

I was meant to have camogie practise today but it was canceled. I wanted to get a decent workout and I didn't want to have Toby pulling my arm off, so I decided to run by myself. I did a lovely 4 miles and got to visit with a little black lamb near the big house out the other side of town. I was also able to run a mile that I'd measured out, so I know how my pace is - I did the mile (and part of it was uphill) in 9.30. Not bad.

4 miles - 40.17

Day Sixty-Five

Monday, 16 April 2007

When we got back from Dublin yesterday, we found the landlord was building a shed in our back garden. This is great news, except it meant I would have to get my run in this morning if I only wanted to do the 1 mile. It was chilly and the sun hadn't yet risen, but it was nice. Toby saw a guy walking up the road and ran out to greet him. Toby's manners were mostly good, although he did try to jump up once.
1 mile - 12.02

Day Sixty-Four

Sunday, April 15 2007
Just another quick run in the old neighbourhood. Saw the younger kids, maybe 7 or 8 year olds, playing football in the park. They were cute - my old phys ed teacher would have been proud. They didn't bunch up at all.
1 mile - 14.10

Day Sixty-Three

Saturday, 14 April 2007
Was in Dublin for a workshop, so I did the route of my old quick-run.
2 miles - 21.14

Day Sixty-One

Thursday, 12 April 2007
Decided to get the mile out of the way early this morning, since I knew today was going to be busy. Hope to do the same thing tomorrow.
1 mile - 12.15

Day Sixty

Wednesday, 11 April 2007

I was an aching pile of bones today, especially down around my ankles. The ground at the camogie pitch is miserable and running around on it for over an hour leaves me in pretty bad shape.

So, just a mile around the house after work.
1 mile - 12.15

Day Fifty-Nine

Tuesday, 10 April 2007
Had camogie practise today so I squeezed in a mile around the house before I had to drive out to my 6.30pm practise.
1 mile - 12.10

Day Fifty-Eight

Monday, 9 April 2007
I didn't sleep well Sunday night and although I wanted to do more, I wasn't feeling up to it. So another mile around the house it was.
1 mile - 12.05
