Podcast: Ron'sUpdate 116/LostTrailRunner


This is episode 116 of my unscripted, unedited, unschedule update podcast.

I have completed 3 races and 1 virtual race since the 1st of the year. The 1st race was the Atlanta Track Club Resolution Run, the 2nd was the Atlanta Track Club Peachtree City 5K, and the 3rd was the Atlanta Track Club Hearts and Soles 5K.

I then registered for the “Run the Reagan” Half Marathon, but didn’t get to run it because of a family emergency.

I had previously registered for the JG13.1 Virtual Half Marathon and was running out of time to get it in before the cut off for getting the results submitted. So, I went out last Saturday morning and completed the virtual half.

The intro song is “Hardwired” and the outtro is “MeanToHurt “, both from Digital Juice at digitaljuice.com.

This podcast was recorded on an Apple iPod Nano Gen 7 using the Apple Earpod mic.

Please go on iTunes and give my podcast a review the more the better and I don’t have many.

You can leave comments at my website, losttrailrunner.com on the podcast pages.

Up and Down Stone Mountain

I was in the mood to do something different today, so I decided to run up Stone Mountain and then back down. When I was younger (much younger) I was able to run to the summit in about 12 minutes. Not today!

I ran up on the service road today, it is much smoother and is crushed rock, but much steeper in places. The walk up trail basically goes up on solid rock and boulders.

 The run is about 1.3 miles from the start of the walk up trail to the summit. Of course today I only ran up .8 mile before I turned around and headed down. I did this for two reasons: 1) I hadn’t run up in along time, and 2) It was hot. Not extremely hot, but hot enough (82º).

 I huffed and puffed on the way up and cruised on the way down. I had a good run, but I noticed when I finished that my quads were sore. I guess that I need to do this run more often.
