sub4 journey: Oct28-Nov03
63.11 miles this week
10:09:38 hours of running
9991 Calories burned
9:40/mi. average
______________________
I've noticed that since I've been running past 50 miles per week (about 6 weeks), the weight is falling off. Anything lower than that mileage and I maintain weight. I'm at 181/2 and feeling good. No injuries or issues at this time. I'm looking to get down to 179 in 4 weeks time. Please pray for me to continue to progress. Napa is in March.
Thanks,
Jason

Journey to sub4 Marathon
I started my run at 7:30, so I could be ready to watch the kids, so Mindy could go to a baby shower, then I'll have to take the girls to Nanna's soccer game at 12.
Here's the details of the run (weather was awesome this morning):
RUN TIME: 2:19:06
RUN DIST: 15.27 mi
AVG. PACE: 9:07/mi
BEST PACE: 7:02/mi
CALORIES BURNED: 2659Cal
Ran the first half slow, and sustained a pretty quick pace for the last half. I would rate the overall Perceived Effort Level at 6 (out of 10).
Word,
Jason

Please Welcome My New Buddy
My new buddy is named, "Forerunner." He specializes in GPS and providing me the most helpful information while I'm running. He tells me time, elevation, time running, current minutes per mile pace, split distances, total distances, routes, timers, alarms, average minutes per mile per run, etc.. I can also hook him up to my PC and upload all the running data. This data will provide trends on progression, or lack thereof, over a set period of time.
I think we're going to get along real well. He's not the most expensive friend or the cheapest kind-- he's right in the middle and most functional. I will have to warn you that he's my friend only. He will not be allowed to play with other folks. Sorry. If you'd ever like to run with me, then his info. will be good for you, too. Imagine a world of no route mapping and math, because my wrist-mounted buddy will tell me all I need to know.
I may look a little like a cyborg on my runs, but I think that's cool. I may even crack open the watch and program it to dispense Gatorade at 10 mt. intervals.

13.1 and no Thoughts
7.12.2007
OFFICE DARES (read all-- you won't be disappointed)
ONE-POINT DARES
1) Run one lap around the office at top speed.
2) Ignore the first five people who say 'good morning' to you.
3) Phone someone in the office you barely know, leave your name and say, "Just called to say I can't talk right now. Bye."
4) To signal the end of a conversation, clamp your hands over your ears and grimace.
5) Leave your zipper open for one hour. If anyone points it out, say, "Sorry, I really prefer it this way."
6) Walk sideways to the photocopier.
7) While riding in an elevator, gasp dramatically every time the doors open.
TWO POINT DARES
1) Say to your boss, "I like your style" and shoot him with double-barreled fingers.
2) Babble incoherently at a fellow employee then ask, "Did you get all that, I don't want to have to repeat it."
3) Page yourself over the intercom (do not disguise your voice).
4) Kneel in front of the water cooler and drink directly from the nozzle (there must be a 'non-player' within sight).
5) Shout random numbers while someone is counting.
FIVE POINT DARES
1) At the end of a meeting, suggest that, for once, it would be nice to conclude with the singing of the national anthem (5 extra points if you actually launch into it yourself).
2) Walk into a very busy person's office and while they watch you with growing irritation, turn the light switch on/off 10 times.
3) For an hour, refer to everyone you speak to as "Bob."
4) Announce to everyone in a meeting that you "really have to go do a number two."
5) After every sentence, say 'Mon' in a really bad Jamaican accent. As in "The report's on your desk, Mon." Keep this up for 1 hour.
6) While an office mate is out, move their chair into the elevator.
7) In a meeting or crowded situation, slap your forehead repeatedly and mutter, "Shut up, all of you just shut up!"
8) At lunchtime, get down on your knees and announce, "As God as my witness, I'll never go hungry again."
9) In a colleague's DAY PLANNER, write in the 10am slot: "See how I look in tights."(5 Extra points if it is a male, 5 more if he is your boss)
10) Carry your keyboard over to your colleague and ask, "You wanna trade?"
11) Repeat the following conversation 10 times to the same person: "Do you hear that?" "What?" "Never mind, it's gone now."
12) Come to work in army fatigues and when asked why, say, "I can't talk about it."
13) Posing as a maitre d', call a colleague and tell him he's won a lunch for four at a local restaurant. Let him go.
14) Speak with an accent (French, German, Porky Pig, etc) during a very important conference call.
15) Find the vacuum and start vacuuming around your desk.!
16) Hang a 2' long piece of toilet roll from the back of your pants and act genuinely surprised when someone points it out.
17) Present meeting attendees with a cup of coffee and biscuits, smashing each biscuit with your fist.
18) During the course of a meeting, slowly edge your chair towards the door.
19) Arrange toy figures on the table to represent each meeting attendee, move them according to the movements of their real-life counterparts.
And if that wasn't enough for you...
How to keep a healthy level of insanity:
1) At lunchtime, sit in your parked car with sunglasses on and point a hair dryer at passing cars. See if they slow down.
2) Tell your children over dinner. "Due to the economy, we are going to have to let one of you go."
3) Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with that.
4) Put your waste basket on your desk and label it "IN".
5) Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.
6) Finish all your sentences with "In accordance with the prophecy."
7) Don't use any punctuation
8) Use, too...much; punctuation!
9) As often as possible, skip rather than walk.
10) Ask people what sex they are. Laugh hysterically after they answer.
11) Specify that your drive-through order is "to go."
12) Sing along at the opera.
13) Go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't rhyme.
14) Put mosquito netting around your work area. Play a tape of jungle sounds all day.
15) Five days in advance, tell your friends you can't attend their party because you're not in the mood.
16) Have your co-workers address you by your wrestling name, "Rock Hard."
17) When the money comes out of the ATM, scream "I Won! I Won! 3rd time this week!!!"
18) When leaving the zoo, start running towards the parking lot yelling, "Run for your lives, they're loose!"
And the final way to keep a healthy level of insanity....
19) Send this to everyone in your address book, even if they sent it to you or have asked you not to send them stuff like this.
