Observations/Fundraiser
- Mile repeats hurt, especially after a high-mileage weekend
- Kathleen makes damn good whole-wheat molasses oatmeal cookies
Sunday food after my run was (in no particular order): Shea-stack, noodles w/ tofu and peanut sauce, kombucha w/ ginger, stir-fried rice w/ tofu, beer (1/2 bottle of Blanche de Chambly), molasses oatmeal cookies
Yesterday I started off the day with a 45:00 Spinervals recovery workout, home-made granola w/ almond milk, sprouted grain toast w/ peanut butter for breakfast, hard-boiled eggs and molasses oatmeal cookies for snacks, hummus & carrots and an avocado/sprouted grain bread sandwich for lunch, mile repeats at the gym (10:00 warmup, 3x1 mile @ ~ 5 seconds faster than 5k pace w/ 4:00 recovery sessions @ 12:00/mile), sweet potato w/ lentils for dinner, oatmeal molasses cookies before bed.
Lastly, I'll be participating in the fundraiser for ultrarunner Danelle Ballangee, who was seriously injured in December while training, and is facing a long road to recovery and huge medical bills. On Saturday the 10th of March, I'll be running 1 hour on a treadmill at a 15% incline. If you'd like to contribute, donations can be sent to:
The Danelle Ballengee Fund, 1st Bank
P.O. Box 347
Silverthorne,CO

If you'd like to pledge a certain amount/mile, drop me an email or post a comment, and I'll let you know after the event how far I ended up going...

I pledge $2/mile, plus an additional $2 for each one of Kathleen's cookies that Shea consumes immediately after his one hour on the treadmill at 15%.
Now there's a challenge - and one that I think I may have to accept.
