Bayerworld - The Rantings of Craig Bayer

The Golden Age of Running is here

Every spring and fall the weather becomes perfect for running in Louisiana.  Unfortunately it only last for about 2 weeks.  It has finally hit us and this week look great.  Weather in the 60s all week and 10 percent chance of rain everyday until Friday.  Expect to see me out on the lakes every day this week.  I plan on rotating between 4 and 8 miles until Friday. 

For my friend's  that would be a cowards run and a Big Kahuna.

Also I didn't hear about any drive bys on third street this weekend so maybe the Boyz in the Hood fade has passed. 

Weight Wars Zippies Addendum.

If you eat at Zippies, the next day you must drink one large Black Tie Margarita and then order a Buffalo Chicken Burrito and eat that Burrito while running home.  If you spill any of that Burrito you must go back and order another one and make it home with out spilling.

Lost 10 pounds in a day, almost fainted.

Weighed myself on Sunday and was up to 215 pounds.  Ran 8.4 miles Monday in really bad humidity.  Weighed myself at the exactly the same time.  Weighed 205 pounds.  I can't wait till summer is over and I don't feel faint after running.  I am going to start using my camel back again.
