Personal:

Pepper is my dog, thus my namesake. Used to run quite fast in the USMC (15:30 3 miles was my best) but stopped running when I got out. Now, it's much tougher and I generally cycle more than I run. However, I still compete in races because it's run and I can be a wee bit competitive.

Nice weather on Super Sunday equals a six mile run in 46:11. Felt good to start back. Easing back into training for spring races.

6.25 easy miles on the C&O Canal Tow path. Really windy, which caused my breathing to be all screwed up throughout the entire run. Total time: 47.23.

5 miles after taking Pepper to his daily evening dog park romp. Today, he wanted to eat an annoying little dog....I almost let him, but was secretly hoping that he'd eat the moronic owner instead. New running route up some massive hills and through some cool neighborhoods in Arlington. Total time: 40 minutes.

Run after the dogpark along the Custis trail for 6 total miles. Total time was 46:00 on a relatively hilly route. Right rearend/upper leg has been tight and I've been stretching it every day to try and get over it. Felt better throughout the run until about 1 miles from the end. Oh well....I'll push through it just like I do everything else.
