RunningAhead has added new functionality that allows me to upload runs from my Garmin. It took me a week to get the plugin to install but I was finally able to use it this weekend and it’s very cool.
I hated the MyTraining application that Garmin uses. The map was always off and I had to backup my runs before closing (and import the backup when opening) if I wanted to see my training history.
The RunningAhead maps are great the upload is very quick and best of all its accessible online.
Plugin problem solved: I kept getting a warning message to close down all browser windows even though they were all closed. I did a reboot and reran the saved exe file and everything installed fine.

Weekly summary 3/8/09
Week total 65.8
Monday 6.06
Tuesday 8.63
Wednesday 7.7
Thursday 10.27
Friday 8.65
Saturday 9.45, 3.61
Sunday 8.34, 3.05
Because I ran a half marathon on Sunday, my only plan this week was to run every day. I didn’t want to push it but if I felt good that day then I would run more. Overall I held up pretty good. My heel wasn’t bothering me too much until the end of the week. It was fine on my morning runs but was a little sore on my afternoon runs.
I’ve finally got my weight back under 170 lbs. In the morning I’m between 168-170 and after runs I’ve been as low as 166. I have to be careful about not losing too much too fast though. I’ve been really tired lately which I think has to do more with not getting enough sleep than anything else. But running more miles and not eating anymore may also have something to do with it. I need to make an effort to get 8 hours a night but that means being in bed by 9pm which isn't always easy.
My plan next week is to get ready for Sundays 5k. I’ll take Saturday off and probably won’t be able to run on Monday because I have to work late. Tues-Thurs I would like to get some sprints in and just an easy run on Friday. Even if I can get a run in after the race it will be hard to get much more than 40 miles.
6 weeks until Boston
