Well hello. I have returned to updating this blog once again following a severe bout of the running blahs brought on by injury, lack of employment, and my having gotten distracted with other interests. Not that I've really stopped running over the last several months, I just couldn't bring myself to take the time to actually write about it. I'll try to correct for that going forward.
A couple things have changed in my routine lately, the first being that I've introduced Udo 3-6-9 oil into my diet as a replacement for the fish oil tablets I've been using for years. I finally decided to cut the fish oil after I determined it was what had been upsetting my stomache recently. So far the only noticable difference with Udo is that I have to take it straight rather than in a pill form. I doubt it's as bad as Cod Liver Oil, but I keep imagining the taste to be about the same. Hopefully with imbibing it on a daily basis, I'll get used to the taste eventually.
Another item of note is that my wife recently purchased a bicycle, so she has been following me on my longer runs. This adds a lovely bit of companionship to my runs that had so far been lacking, but it certainly is a different experience having someone else along, and certain adjustments have had to be made. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
My running schedule currently is comprised of three 5-mile runs during the week, with a fourth longer run on Sundays (currently up to about 17 miles). Tomorrow I intend to introduce Kami to the experience of running through Downtown Tacoma, not to mention the waterfront, which should make for a nice change of scenery.
Alright, longer report after tomorrow's run, as well as some reflections on the reading I've been doing lately.
