http://www.juddmansee.com/blog All Things Juddmansee Mon, 06 Sep 2010 21:26:33 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Today we ran the Around Cape Ann 25K, which we both ran in 2000 and Susan ran last year. Our goal was to run our marathon pace and consider if we could sustain that pace for another 10 miles. The math says we're on track, but it doesn't ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=835 August Totals: Running 174.5 miles + Hiking 15.5 miles for Beej, Su ran about 3 miles less than that over 27 days. It was a good month! Highlights: We did a 20 mile run on 8/14 and a 22 mile run on 8/28 as our long runs - these are ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=830 This weekend we decided to tackle Mt. Willey (4302'), a short but steep hike. Unlike our last hike, we knew this one would climb right out of the parking lot - no warmup, and not much change in grade, just an efficient walk up the mountain followed by retracing ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=822 8/2 week: Mountains and Hills Susan and Beej's weekly mileage: 33.1 miles run and 9.8 miles hiked. Highlights: the hike (see prior post), and the odd feeling running around Maudslay on Sunday that our legs felt better while running than any other time the past 24 hours. 8/9 week: Beej's weekly mileage: ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=812 We set out on August 7, a gorgeous Saturday, to tackle two more peaks on Brian's 4000' list. Because it's been so dry, and the humidity was forecasted to be low, we thought it was a perfect day to hike Mt. Flume (4325') and Mt. Liberty (4459'). The ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=799 We had a busy but enjoyable July. We started with our traditional vowel state tour, leaving July 2 in our new Subaru Forester and staying in Batavia en route to Edon Ohio for a family reunion. It was great to see everyone, play lots of cards, go running, ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=793 After our post-race respites in June, we are back on the training wagon as of July, getting ready for the Marine Corps Marathon. We're doing the coolrunning advanced marathon training plan. It's been really fun to train together! We don't do every run together, but most of the long ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=788 A little under a year ago I raced in my first ever triathlon, the Powow Sprint Triathlon in Amesbury, MA. After that race, I wanted to do something a bit longer. The sprint distance goes by so fast and is over in under 90 minutes. In September of last year ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=734 On Memorial Day we headed up to do some hiking in the Whites. We enjoyed the open road tolling at the Hampton Tolls on the way up and back - we hope they make this a permanent upgrade! We decided to start near the Pinkham Notch Visitors Center ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=723 One of the (frightening) joys of owning an antique house is that whenever you do work on it you're never sure what you'll find. Our exploration back in 2008 of the floor and walls when we were running ductwork for air conditioning was mostly innocuous with finds including very large ... http://www.juddmansee.com/blog/?p=703
