Nice and easy fasted run yesterday with my @lululemon #chasingnewport fam. Exploring the Newport Beach neighborhoods and trails. #lululemon #runclub #running #teamnuun #werunsocial #instarunners #furtherfasterforever #strava #stravaproveit #fashionisland #newportbeach #maurrunning #maurrunselfies #latergram (at Lululemon Fashion Island)
Busy month with lots of races and trying to fit in as many miles in between without wrecking my body. This is the most monthly mileage I’ve put on in a couple months, but I still feel like I haven’t don’t enough for Leona Divide 50 miler. Good news is I feel like I’ll be going into the race healthy unlike how I went into my 50K. 2 weeks until showtime. #running #leonadivide50 #training #ultramarathon #ultrarunning #trail #teamnuun #strava #stravaproveit #leonadivide
This week my New Balance MR00s hit 1000. They’ve done me well through weekly training, 2 full marathons, 15+ half marathons through 10 different states. Many memorable miles put in on these babies. I love minimalist running as I am not dependent on the shoe for “support” and the #vibram soles last so long. These shoes will likely be retired after LA Marathon as it’s time to pick up a new pair. #running #marathon #halfmarathon #newbalance #seemyrun #strava #stravaproveit #teamnuun #asnailspace #instarunners #shoes #gear #maurrunning #maurrungear (at New Balance OC)
Last run of 2015. A brisk 4 miles as the sun set on another year. This run put me just over 1500 miles for the year. With all the holidays, traveling, and parties, I was doubtful but somehow was able to squeeze in 130 miles this month to hit it. It’s been an incredible year of running and looking forward to more miles in 2016. Happy New Year! #chasingsunsets #running #goals #teamnuun #nuunbassador #beatyesterday #garmin #strava #newbalance #seemyrun #furtherfasterforever #blacksheeprun #werunsocial #instarunners #happynuunyear #newyear (at Cerritos Regional County Park)
With last night’s run, hit 3K on my #nikeplus. Although I’ve moved on to #garmin / #strava, I still sync my runs to Nike since it was the first app I used and is pretty much my total mileage since starting long distance running. It’s amazing to think how many miles and memories have gone by in the past couple of years. Kind of sad to be leaving one of my favorite colors, but I do love black too. #running #nike #justdoit #nuunbassador #furtherfasterforever #werunsocial #instarunners #almostshadowtime
My first leg of Ragnar So Cal done. Those rolling hills though. #ragnarsocal #running #f3ragnar #furtherfasterforever #lagunaniguel #strava #nuunbassador #newbalance (at Laguna Niguel, California)
Finally able to squeeze in a run. 40s and light rain, but had to get it in before the snow tonight and tomorrow. Nice 5 miler all over the inner Baltimore harbor. #steamin #running #vibramfivefingers #nuunbassador #strava #travel #work #baltimore (at Inner Harbor)
Had another great fasted run last night. This time with my Lululemon run fam running around Corona Del Mar. 3 miles in, threw in a couple hills sprints, which blasted my legs for the rest of the semi hilly run back. Still pushed on to finish the run with decent pace. Will be taking it easy the rest of the way until LA Marathon. #chasingnewport #lululemon #runclub #running #fasted #lowcarbrunner #lamarathon #training #strava #vibramfivefingers #nuunbassador #coronadelmar #newport #fashionisland (at lululemon athletica Newport Beach)
Rough run this morning. Pace was much slower than last week, had to take a few breaks, and had to cut down my 20 to 18.5. Weather was really dry, windy, and warm. I should have been able to run through that, but I also had some problems with my feet and the new shoes. I know better than to put so much miles on new shoes, but I don’t have much time to figure it out with only 2 more long runs left until LA. Looks like my Five Fingers will be getting another marathon on them. In a way, it’s refreshing to not have to wonder how my feet would feel in the later miles with “regular shoes”. #running #lamarathon #training #generationucan #nuunbassador #newport #backbay #balboa #newbalance #garmin #strava (at Newport Beach Back Bay)
We run the night… and Newport Beach. Lululemon run club. #chasingnewport #running #lamarathon #training #lululemon #runclub #garmin #vibramfivefingers #nuunbassador #strava #blackandwhite #newportbeach #fashionisland (at lululemon athletica Newport Beach)
Brought out the new racing flats for the second time last night during Nike run club. I will still do the bulk of my training and running in my Five Fingers but wanted something just as light with a tad bit more cushion for the marathon. Gotta get a few test runs in with them before the big day though. #running #lamarathon #training #nikerunclub #werunoc #newbalance #garmin #strava #nuunbassador (at Nike Running South Coast Plaza)
Back at it. Great run with Nike run club. #werunoc #nike #running #nikerunclub #nikerunning #southcoastplaza #fasted #lowcarbrunner #vibramfivefingers #garmin #920xt #strava (at Nike Running South Coast Plaza)
One final run of the year before the festivities begin. It’s been a great year in running and life. I have much to be optimistic about in 2015. #running #fitness #newyear #lamarathon #training #garmin #920xt #strava #irvine #happynewyear (at Bill Barber Park)
Breaking in the 920 with a nice and easy out and back at the Newport Back Bay. Needed this after this week of eating bad stuff. #running #lamarathon #training #dropback #garmin #920xt #strava #nuunlove #nuunbassador (at Newport Upper Back Bay)
