Week 6 Podcast

Week 6

We had a pretty good week, with some low mileage, but our weekend runs are getting longer (especially when you accidentially run MORE than you're supposed to!). We're onto week 7 of the training, and still busy every weekend.

This photo is from our recent Monterey trip. Emily's still smiling after the long run!

Here is the link for the latest podcast: http://www.box.net/shared/l926xcoztf

Highlights:
-Ran 14 miler, on accident, oops!
-Weekday runs are getting longer, days are getting shorter
-Book recommendation: Ultramarathon Man by Dean Karnazes www.ultramarathonman.com
-Response to question: "Are you guys losing any weight?"
-Next week: Traveling again, 6 miler, and week day 8 mile hill run

Run on, Fellow Runners, Run on!

Week 5 Podcast

Week 5 podcast is in the can.... download it here: http://www.box.net/shared/ej0ycy6rh9

Our long run this past week was much easier and more enjoyable. Training continues to get tougher, although if you prepare for it, its not too bad. New shoes, yes!

Also, the quality of the podcast is still just okay, but I'm getting used to podcasting now. And thanks to everyone who listens regularly, friends and family, we appreciate it! It gives us an audience, and makes it more fun if we know we have your support. Thank you!

Topics include:
-Ran 12 miler, and prepared for it this time!
-Running Revolution in Campbell is great, hooked us up with great shoes, and did it the right way
-Fuel Belts
-Stretching myths
-Dead ipod.....NOOOOOO!
-New Pains on long runs

Next week: Running while traveling again, this time 13 miles in Monterey, along the coast, should be beautiful!

Run on, Fellow Runners, Run on!

Week 4 Podcast

Week 4 podcast is up, check it out: http://www.box.net/shared/226vjy5dcv

Whew! Traveling is tough when training, and you will hear about it. However, this may be the best sounding podcast yet. I found a decent mic to use, but we are still going to get a better one. This podcasting thing is tough!

Topics include:
-Running 10 (not 12!) miles in the heat, without water and while traveling
-CarCast with Adam Carolla
-What to look for in a run when traveling, using MapMyRun and Google Pedometer function
-Are your favorite songs good running songs?

Thanks for listening!

Run on, fellow Runners! Run on!

Week 3 Podcast

We are back with a new podcast after being sick. Here is the link to the file: http://www.box.net/shared/199jz9kva2

Topics include:
-Running and sickness
-Wharf to Wharf 6 mile run in Santa Cruz, CA
-Eating beans while running
-Traveling when training for a marathon

The quality of the sound is very poor, and I recommend turning up your volume to hear it clearly. I am still working out the sound on my computer. However, content wise, this is a good podcast, so I recommend you listen. The end of the podcast is very quiet so you will just hear music. I did figure out what was wrong, of course it was after we recorded, so next week will be great.

Thanks for listening!
