I’m helping a friend get his blog kicked off with a little extra traffic.
If you enjoy hot political debates and controversial topics, then head on
over to BubbaSoundsOff.com.
As an added bonus, if you post a link to his site from your own site, I will
do you an added bonus of posting a link from 3 of my own sites to yours,
as well as ask him to post a link back to you too! — that’s FOUR incoming links for you!
Happy surfing!

Increase Your Blog Ranking at Technorati
I am running a little experiment with my friend over at MyTVmusings.com to see exactly how link exchanges can help out when it comes to how Technorati.com ranks blog sites. I've also posted a bit more about it on my new personal blog rock808.com and FinancialJetstream.com.
So far things have been looking pretty good. If you're interested in the latest details please post a comment or send me a note... otherwise I'll assume no one's really interested in the details. :)

Another 3 miles
My legs were doing a little better Thurday. The extra protein is probably helping... building up the muscles a bit more. I pushed myself for the 3-mile non-stop run again. This time it was a bit hard on the lungs. I'm sure my body will do fine with 3 miles in another week.
16:00:00 start
16:10:15 1st mile (10:15) - again, started VERY slowly, as Darrell suggested
16:20:15 2nd mile (10:00) - Actually did the 2nd mile faster than the first!
16:31:10 3rd mile (10:55) - I wonder why this mile was a full minute slower?!
Temp: (didn't check) - (WeatherUnderground)
Humidity: (didn't check - seemed a bit humid)
... It was a pretty nice day. Perhaps a bit on the humid side.

jogging 2 miles
My legs were pretty sore Tuesday, after the first 3 miles of non-stop jogging since last year, so I skipped that day. Today the legs are still a bit sore, but good enough, i suppose. I didn't want to push it, so only did the first 2 miles jogging without stopping, and then finished the last mile walking only.
16:00:00 start
16:10:25 1st mile (10:25) - started VERY slowly, as Darrell suggested
16:20:30 2nd mile (10:05) - right on target with my normal 2-mile time
16:34:20 3rd mile (13:50) - (walk only) a little longer than I had wanted!
Temp: (didn't check) - (WeatherUnderground)
Humidity: (didn't check)
... overall it seemed like a nice day. Maybe not as hot (or humid) as Monday was
I'm a bit dissappointed to see the overall time quite a bit slower for today. My legs were certainly feeling it after the first mile.... still fairly sore from Monday's non-stop, and near the end of the second mile there is a rather large hill, which almost got me walking at that point. I didn't want to push it, though, so it's probably for the best. At least I'm doing the first 2 miles non-stop, which is probably where I should be anyway, so I'll even call this "overall progress" :)

Back to 3 miles
(ahh.. what the hell... I'll post it here too)
Today I managed to run the complete 3 miles without stopping!
This last weekend I was talking to my friend Darrell (who will be running the 10k with me next month). He’s got a bit more experience running, and so I mentioned to him that I was a little frustrated with my lack of progress over the last month. It’s been a long time since the last post, but for the past 2 weeks I have been running 4 out of the 5 weekdays (I’ll post more about that later), but have only been jogging the first mile, and then doing a walk/jog combination on the last 2 miles. My total completion time is always about 31-32 minutes with VERY little variation. The first mile is always done in about 9:30 (min:sec). He suggested I REALLY slow down on that first mile, and then push through the next two.
So today, that’s what I did. I completed the first mile in 10:40, the second mile by 21:02, and the third by 32:30, which means that my overall time stayed the same, but I reached the goal of running the entire course. I was able to keep my breathing very controlled until the last half of the last mile, and then it did get just a little faster, but not as much as the previous weeks. My legs are quite a bit more sore though! So, time to up the protein drinks.
As for the weather. It’s starting the get a little warmer. I started the run at 16:00 again today, and did a bit more sweating than the last couple weeks. I enjoy getting the extra sun, but might need to go back to my early morning runs before too much longer.

moving time
I HAVE been running!
But not posting :(
I've been meaning to move this (and a few other blogs I have) to my own domains for quite some time now. Today I made the move and kicked it off with my latest post about my 10k training progress.
The new blog is at rock808.com and will be a container for quite a bit of what I do online.
I will still keep these other blogs up and running, and WILL be continuing to post on them! But we'll have to see where my loyalties end up.

struggle
Wow!
What a struggle...
I was sick all last week and so couldn't do a thing.
In fact, I've still got a runny nose today, but overall
feel well enough to get back out there.. and too much time
has been slipping by anyway.
It seems like I have a LOT going on these days, so
again, only going to put in the times for right now...
15:10:00 start
15:09:34 finish 1st mile (jog 100%)
15:21:53 finish 2nd mile (walk/jog combo)
15:34:12 finish 3rd mile (walk/jog combo)
I'll try to get 3 miles in on Thursday and
Friday as well.
