After three amazing years here in the UK, my job has ended and my visa will expire at the beginning of November, so we are packing it up all up and moving back. Probably not for good, we love it here in the UK and would like to stay here, but there simply hasn't been enough time to secure a new position that can sponsor a new visa in time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I fully intend to continue this podcast and look forward to evolving it as things unfold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of podcasts, be sure to head over to Krister's &lt;a href="http://runningthenarrowpath.blogspot.com/"&gt;Running The Narrow Path podcast&lt;/a&gt; to check out his latest episode in which we run together in London for the Worldwide Festival of Races half marathon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Krister and his family came to visit and we had a great weekend together exploring London.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So... that's the big news. It's been kinda crazy and there's so much to do in terms of packing, paperwork, etc, but I plan on getting at least one more episode out from England before we head back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to everyone for your support and correspondence, it is always very much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Music from the Podsafe Music Network&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;"You Start It" by&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/producers/producerLibrary/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Featured Songs:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;"Welcome In Your Home" by&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=4cac8367445455ec7e11f502972ef653"&gt;Doug Mcleod&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/299724/runyankrundl-299724-10-20-2011.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 51&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-4887919000564992297?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/299724/runyankrundl-299724-10-20-2011.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/4887919000564992297/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2011/10/run-yank-run-051-moving-back.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/4887919000564992297'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/4887919000564992297'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2011/10/run-yank-run-051-moving-back.html' title='Run Yank Run 051: Moving Back'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-4977852104122271483</id><published>2011-10-02T00:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-02T00:27:49.945-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 050: Special Edition</title><content type='html'>Wow, it's hard to believe the podcast has hit 50 episodes!

Well, I tried something different. I put a mic and the Nano on Krister and recorded myself in the usual way. I assumed that since both recording devices are digital, they would stay in sync once I linked them up in editing. No. They drift.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So every minute or so I needed to adjust a track by a couple of milliseconds to minimise phasing, etc. Lots of work but I think it paid off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, the mic I gave Krister wasn't properly shielded from the wind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But hey, lessons learned and I do think it was a good experiment. PLUS, nothing can take away from the fabulous trip and the great, peaceful runs Krister and I had.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, we're coming up on the 50th episode of the Run Yank Run podcast, so, if you are a listener and would like to send in something to be included in a special 50th episode extravaganza, then send it to&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:runyankrun@gmail.com"&gt;runyankrun@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Send me an audio file (any format), something to read out, heck, even pictures I can post to the blog.

It's rainy and cold... and it's AUGUST! Well, no matter, I head out for a 12 mile out-and-back heading west along the Thames. It was so wet that I was nervous about recording during the run, so I chat witcha during the rest stops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I just put out ep 47 just a little while ago, but I've been enjoying running so much that I've been running pretty much every day and finally made the leap on two purchases and had to talk about 'em.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first one is I decided to go ahead and get some new Nike Free's. But this time, I opted for the 3.0's which have almost half the sole of the 5.0's and it's a HUGE difference. I love them! Great ground feel and it's easier to keep up on the forefoot. I can tell my whole body is adjusting and can feel muscles in my legs, core, and even back are getting stronger. Good stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xaFBo0kD3jw/Tk1W9Knv_gI/AAAAAAAAAHc/mTqadPz3LE4/s1600/m_free_30_v3_453974_001.jpg_400.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xaFBo0kD3jw/Tk1W9Knv_gI/AAAAAAAAAHc/mTqadPz3LE4/s1600/m_free_30_v3_453974_001.jpg_400.jpeg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The second is a 16GB silver iPad Nano. This thing is TINY. I can even clip it to the band on the back of my running cap and not even notice it. The biggest part of the decision was the fact that is records just like the iPhone. In fact, this episode was recorded on it.

BUT, my body had other plans. I only made five miles or so. I just didn't have any lung capacity. I got a case of the flu a week ago and I'm starting to think perhaps it was actually mild pneumonia. I feel better now but my heart rate was too high and I felt out of breath, so I cut the run short. Well, frequency over duration, right?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;In this episode I talk about switching back to the Garmin, a new service I found that&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://awsmithson.com/tcx2nikeplus/"&gt;converts Garmin data into Nike+&lt;/a&gt;, and mention a site called&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.homerunlondon.com/"&gt;Home Run London&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;that organises group runs and will even handle baggage for you (I havent tried it yet but was tipped off by Claudia who left a comment on this blog).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px;

Running From The Reaper&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;podcast for his Dailymile challenge of running 5K for 5 Years Of Podcasting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a recovery run after Saturday's half marathon with &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/#!/SteveChopper"&gt;@stevechopper&lt;/a&gt; from the &lt;a href="http://www.amilewith.me/"&gt;A Mile With Me&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;podcast and &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/#!/clewsy"&gt;@clewsy&lt;/a&gt; from the &lt;a href="http://www.veloclubdonlogan.co.uk/"&gt;Velo Club&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;podcast. Steve had planned a Mojo Loco London but for various reasons it ended up just being us for an impromptu run along the Thames from Richmond to Hampton Court and back. It was a great run with great company and we got some good conversations (and some walking) into a long afternoon of running in the sun and clouds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Running been hit or miss due to work and life, but I was able to run the 2011 British 10K today and it was a lot of fun. Despite not receiving a pack pack, Tube closure, and general life wear and tear, I made it to start line and ran a good race. My goal was to finish in under an hour and whilst the offical chip timing isnt in yet, my Nike+ places me at just over 52 minutes. Happy with that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's some pictures of the race and from ones I snapped:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BrPEN6mn9jY/ThnsfNM3BGI/AAAAAAAAAGo/_QIy-9S6Wr0/s1600/BigBen.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="213" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BrPEN6mn9jY/ThnsfNM3BGI/AAAAAAAAAGo/_QIy-9S6Wr0/s320/BigBen.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--2GR2PzHU-Q/ThnsYuncaYI/AAAAAAAAAGk/hZEus3a6C9Y/s1600/IMG_0082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--2GR2PzHU-Q/ThnsYuncaYI/AAAAAAAAAGk/hZEus3a6C9Y/s320/IMG_0082.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sFQFx74jZQM/ThnsXumRcrI/AAAAAAAAAGg/ZS3ua_-rT3I/s1600/IMG_0081.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="239" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sFQFx74jZQM/ThnsXumRcrI/AAAAAAAAAGg/ZS3ua_-rT3I/s320/IMG_0081.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1578637033"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1578637034"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Music from the Podsafe Music Network and Go Home Productions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;None this time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;"You Start It" by&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/producers/producerLibrary/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/287802/runyankrundl-287802-07-10-2011.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 45&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-1184760154623202724?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/287802/runyankrundl-287802-07-10-2011.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/1184760154623202724/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2011/07/run-yank-run-45-race-day.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/1184760154623202724'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/1184760154623202724'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2011/07/run-yank-run-45-race-day.html' title='Run Yank Run 45: Race Day'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BrPEN6mn9jY/ThnsfNM3BGI/AAAAAAAAAGo/_QIy-9S6Wr0/s72-c/BigBen.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-922191854580126064</id><published>2011-06-12T09:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-14T10:41:28.751-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 044: I'm Baaack!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;Once again, long time no see.

By the end my legs were pretty tired, proving I have a long way to go to get back to marathon fitness, but I didn't die and the next day (today) I went for a 6 mile recovery run during which I recorded this episode.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;In short, life is good.

This podcast was recorded during my trip back to the US. The first week I was in New York City for work. It snowed like blazes. The second week I spent on vacation visiting family and friends in Atlanta. It was so good to be back on familiar ground with people who know me and I got a LOT out of being there and seeing everyone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;As far as running goes, it's been good. While in New York I ran a fantastic 10K loop of Central Park in the snow and a couple of interval sessions on the hotel treadmill. When I got to Atlanta - well actually Canton which is way north of Atlanta - I made a point of running about 5 miles per day in the hills. Fantastic!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;In my last podcast I mentioned all the places I was going to eat and I am pleased to say I ate at them all. I am leaving the States a heavier, but very satisfied, person!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/TU8VG4Dog2I/AAAAAAAAAE8/qa2Az2dXins/s1600/IMG_0214.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="239" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/TU8VG4Dog2I/AAAAAAAAAE8/qa2Az2dXins/s320/IMG_0214.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;I just packed my running backpack for a morning commute run to the office in the morning.

Sorry for yet another massively long silent spell, I go into the reason for this podcast's absence in great detail in this episode, but in short it goes like this: I got really sick in March, work exploded, then we went on holiday in Spain and got stuck due to the &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8623534.stm"&gt;volcanic ash cloud&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/bsp/hi/dhtml_slides/10/iceland_volcano/img/6iceland_volcano466.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 466px; height: 356px;" src="http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/bsp/hi/dhtml_slides/10/iceland_volcano/img/6iceland_volcano466.gif" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Our trip was great and we really enjoyed getting away. We saw never ending orange groves, over-developed beachfronts, ancient castles, and the inside of a Spanish hospital when one of my children got pneumonia (!). He's perfectly fine now but that was a bit of drama for the trip.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I go over being stuck in Spain due to all flights being cancelled due to the volcanic ash cloud and our journey home by bus and ferry.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://alexvero.co.uk/images/dvdcover-runningtothelimits.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right;

Sigh.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Then things got crazy with the weather and work and sick kids, etc. Anyway, we are back in business.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When I have been able to run I have been doing great - bookended morning and evening commute runs with average weekly totals of about 25 miles - despite not running for several days per week.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am also doing the 100 Pushups program and the 200 situps program, and that is humming along well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Anyway, I promise it wont be so long till the next episode - I just realized I completely forgot to mention the &lt;a href="http://10in10challenge.blogspot.com/"&gt;10 in 10 Challenge&lt;/a&gt; put together by Nigel from &lt;a href="http://runningfromthereaper.blogspot.com"&gt;Running From The Reaper&lt;/a&gt;, so stay tuned for that in the next episode!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Crazy song by a dude on the Paris Metro&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/208686/runyankrundl-208686-01-20-2010.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 26&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-6173869624018206924?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/208686/runyankrundl-208686-01-20-2010.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/6173869624018206924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2010/01/run-yank-run-026-well-howdy.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/6173869624018206924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/6173869624018206924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2010/01/run-yank-run-026-well-howdy.html' title='Run Yank Run 026: Well Howdy!'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-4096483774583257389</id><published>2009-12-26T08:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-26T09:16:08.542-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='happy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ice'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mud'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holidays'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Christmas'/><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 025: Merry Christmas!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;A very Merry (Happy) Christmas to you!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This run is along the Thames on a chilly but not frigid Christmas Eve.

I really can't complain when I hear about the temps from my Canadian friends or others with really frigid temps, but for some reason 0 degrees Celsius in London just feels really cold. No matter that it is just 32 degrees Fahrenheit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In this episode I am running on yet another morning commute run to Ealing Broadway in the wind and cold. That boom mike is doing a great job of getting rid of the cars, but it does sound tinny. Can't have one without the other, I guess. Well, at least you can hear what I'm saying now!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I got to work yesterday with my change of work clothes only to find that I had forgotten my trousers! WHOOPS! So, I changed back into my running clothes and had to walk to a store and buy a pair. That threw my morning out of whack and I wasn't able to meet up for a run with Patrick from Twitter. We are going to reschedule.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Last night it was supposed to snow quite a bit but it all melted by morning. That doesn't change the fact that it was blowing a gale last night. Simply ferocious winds!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I started the Hundred Pushup Challenge program this week. You gradually build up over 6 weeks until you can do 100 pushups in a single session (but you do them reps).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Time to pack it up and run on home (literally). It was snowing again but I think it's stopped. Really cold outside right now - 34 Fahr at last check. I am wondering about running in the dark though. This morning there were patches of ice. Hmmm....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Hi" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=84966caa11ae5d22bdb2f0564eab8b58"&gt;THE PAPERAZZI&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/204012/runyankrundl-204012-12-18-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 24&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-5803566407297602010?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/204012/runyankrundl-204012-12-18-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/5803566407297602010/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/12/run-yank-run-024-deep-freeze.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/5803566407297602010'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/5803566407297602010'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/12/run-yank-run-024-deep-freeze.html' title='Run Yank Run 024: Deep Freeze'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-6372323496834006864</id><published>2009-12-10T06:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-10T07:01:53.514-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 023: Take Three</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Wow, two episodes in a week! Well, I really wasn't pleased with the way the Olympus directional mic sounded so I went to a local store and picked up a headset microphone and a windscreen. On the next commute run I recorded more material with the new mic and found I had enough for a whole other episode, so there you are.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;While this new mic has even less car noise than the directional one, I have to work on where it is positioned because I am huffing and puffing right into it. I did my best to minimize the breath sounds but they are still there for this episode (sorry). I also look like an aerobics instructor. Whatever.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So my Christmas present arrived early! I ordered an &lt;a href="http://road.cc/content/review/9063-altura-night-vision-evo-jacket"&gt;Altura Night Vision Evo&lt;/a&gt; rain jacket for running and even with free shipping it arrived the very next day! Gotta love that. I wore it for the first time this morning and it fits and runs well. It is covered in reflective tape and even comes with a detachable strobing light, so I should be plenty visible on those pitch-dark evening commute runs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.evanscycles.com/product_image/image/8c9/855/dc4/41003/product_page/altura-night-vision-evo-jacket.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.evanscycles.com/product_image/image/8c9/855/dc4/41003/product_page/altura-night-vision-evo-jacket.jpg" border="0" alt="" style="cursor: pointer; width: 395px; height: 260px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In this episode I speak about the Run Net Community, a concept around this emerging group of Internet-connected runners who are active in blogs, podcasting, Twitter, etc. To learn more about it, check this link: &lt;a href="http://www.runnetcommunity.org"&gt;Run Net Community&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Apathy and Empathy" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=13da38e888f8c16e7fd54f07a344eda9"&gt;Uncle Meat and the Highway Children&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/202263/runyankrundl-202263-12-10-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 23&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-6372323496834006864?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/202263/runyankrundl-202263-12-10-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/6372323496834006864/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/12/run-yank-run-023-take-three.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/6372323496834006864'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/6372323496834006864'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/12/run-yank-run-023-take-three.html' title='Run Yank Run 023: Take Three'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-4676881762524648041</id><published>2009-12-08T06:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-08T06:39:28.735-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 022: Blustery Day</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Greetings! This podcast episode was recorded with the new microphone I mentioned last time. I have to say that while it DID lower the car noise, it is much more susceptible to wind and also overdrives my recorder, leading to distorted audio sometimes. Sigh. Out of the frying pan into the fire!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In this episode I mention something very important: a relative of a dear friend of mine is missing.

I want to apologize to those of you still checking in on me for the lack of episodes or updates lately. Life has just kept on being crazy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have good news though! I have been running again and it feels great. Last Saturday I did an 8+ miler then got in a 6.6 and a 10K. My legs feel strong and it was great to be moving again!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The time change happened and now it is pitch dark by 4:45 every day, so my evening commute runs are done in darkness. I have kitted out with a headlamp, red blinker light facing backwards on my backpack, a reflective anklet and the ubiquitous hi-viz flourescent green jacket with reflective bits. If cars can't see me this way I don't know what else would work!! I feel a little silly like a gaudy Christmas tree or something, but safety first.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;No runs this weekend although I had planned to. Two of the kids were sick and my wife Rebecca as well, so we all holed up in the house and watched movies basically all weekend.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Needless to say I'm ready to run.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This weekend and most of today has seen some pretty impressive weather rolling through, with wind gusts of 75mph and even a bit of hail one morning. Thankfully the wind has died down now so it shouldn't be too gusty for me on tonight's run.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have been chipping away at producing a podcast about the World Festival of Races Dream Inspires run we did in Oxford, but the anount of material to edit and the required voiceover to explain what the heck is going on at any given time has really slowed that down... perhaps I'll rethink how I am approaching coverage of that excellent event.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Stay well, stay happy, stay running!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Psycle Pswami" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=f6562739e3f4cfd65616ca8abe336d80"&gt;Satan's Pilgrims&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/197713/runyankrundl-197713-11-16-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 20&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-5206796340039978856?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/197713/runyankrundl-197713-11-16-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/5206796340039978856/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/11/run-yank-run-020-keepin-on.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/5206796340039978856'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/5206796340039978856'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/11/run-yank-run-020-keepin-on.html' title='Run Yank Run 020: Keepin&apos; On'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-7622415436640210548</id><published>2009-10-23T04:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-23T04:28:09.627-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 019: Still Alive!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Hiya, this short episode is mostly to prove that I am still alive and kicking, despite all rumours to the contrary.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After running the WWFOR Half Mara two Sundays ago work simply exploded and I put in nights and days to solve a big problem with a project.

Oh and October hasn't seen many training runs at all....&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A new pair of Nike Vomero shoes and some new technical clothes arrived by post today and I feel kinda guilty - who are these for? Certainly not ME, I don't run any more! Ha&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, work has been hellish lately and my schedule hasn't been that accomodating, but that's lame. Runners like RunDigger are waking up at 4:00am to run. I could too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, my sincere apologies for the last episode of the podcast, my own family told me that it was hard to listen to due to the car noise. Well, I have figured out some things and gotten some advice from fellow running podcasters, so once I get my act together and actually record another episode it should sound better!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This weekend is the WWFOR in Oxford UK and I am really looking forward to it. This Sunday I will pack up my kit and drive to Oxford to meet with with a group of UK runners and podcasters. So here's the question - half marathon or 10K?

This  was the longest run I have completed since running the ING marathon in March of 2008, so I feel I have turned a corner and am now starting to be a distance runner again!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Pleased to report that other than general muscle soreness, I didn't have any problems with knees, shins, ankles, or anything else, so I think the slow-and-steady buildups of miles and the unnaturally restrained approach is paying off.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;During my rest break at mile 6 I was roped into a very strange conversation with a gentleman who just walked up and started talking to me outside the gas station where I was sipping on my Powerade. I chopped this very long conversation down to a few key interactions, since he chatted me up for almost five minutes and covered our families, work history, pet preferences, and exercise habits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;He was actually very friendly and an upbeat person, but I was gasping, sweaty, and "in the zone" so I hope I wasn't being too standoffish!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This was my last run in the US - we are now back in Blighty and it feels great to be home.

This one has been a beast to produce - I attempted recordings 4 different times and had to abandon and start over each time. Either the ipod got wet and stopped working, recorded garbage, or whatever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The big story for this episode is the fact that we are in the US now. The kids did SO well on the flight over and I'm very proud of them. It is strange being back - everything is so very familiar and yet different!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am making my way through all kinds of junky comfort food that I had been thinking about since our move to the UK. It's a gross list of fast food and junk food and I know I'm not doing myself any favors, but dagnabit it sure tasted good. I am on a food holiday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the training front I am sticking acceptably close to my training schedule and even managed to complete the running frequency goal I set in Nike+ (although I had to sneak a few extra/aternate runs in there to make it).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My first longer run was last Sunday morning - I went out early before it got hot and ran 7.5 miles. It felt fantastic and my legs had plenty of reserves. It was humid though and occasionally rained on me, but I didnt care - it was great to get out there and pound some good ole Atlanta hills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had to delay this week's long run to Monday for various reasons and after a frantic freeway drive to catch up to my wife and kids to retrieve my passport as they left on their road trip, I only had a 3:00 pm window to run. It was 90 degrees.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My ipod started malfunctioning again - remote button got wet from sweat and starting randomly pausing/resuming Nike+. Add to that I was getting seriously overheated so I cut the run short at 6 miles instead of the 8 I was supposed to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whatever - I got out there and I ran despite the odds, so I'm happy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am writing these show notes in the Dallas airport on the way to Costa Rica and plan to record some there as well. I don't want to get podcasters block and plan on releasing episode 13 in short order, just to get the pace of production back up.&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Front Porch" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=146011d5245ed7843038fcf79f24c998"&gt;Pariah Beat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/170022/runyankrundl-170022-08-11-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 12&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-4157967205186462128?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/170022/runyankrundl-170022-08-11-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/4157967205186462128/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/08/run-yank-run-012-hot-stuff.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/4157967205186462128'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/4157967205186462128'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/08/run-yank-run-012-hot-stuff.html' title='Run Yank Run 012: Hot Stuff'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-752200837613263323</id><published>2009-08-09T10:01:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-09T10:03:05.285-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Time keeps on slippin'</title><content type='html'>Hiya,&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So I have attempted to record stuff three times during this trip to the US.

If you see a minivan full of people driving aimlessly in circles on a busy roundabout, that will be us... ha! &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;But seriously, we got the car on Thursday of last week. My first drive was kinda scary in that the minivan isn't so mini (about the size of a Honda Odyssey) and our neighborhood streets are &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; narrow. Not knowing the width of the car, I drove like an old lady. I'm happy to say I stayed in the lefthand lanes when turning (this required concentration).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Anyway, several practice drives later I took the kids on an excursion and they are thrilled to be mobile again. This is the start of weekend getaways, camping, and general freedom of movement not possible with mass transit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In running news, I had a brilliant 4 mile run on the early-morning Paris streets, the highlight of which was the smell of baking bread. Oh my!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This podcast is mostly recorded during a 7 mile training run on Sunday in which I explored a new run route east of Chiswick Bridge. It was a lovely path along the river that lead to a river walk near Hammersmith. I will definitely be going that way again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was really windy during that run and the planes landing at Heathrow were constant, but I think that still beats the constant car noise from a commute run recording.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Speaking of recording, I ordered a &lt;a href="http://www.showmecables.com/viewItem.asp?idProduct=8335"&gt;breakout cable&lt;/a&gt; and mic from &lt;a href="http://www.giant-squid-audio-lab.com/gs/gs-mono.html"&gt;Giant Squid Audio Labs&lt;/a&gt;. They should be waiting for me in the States when I get there later this week. I'm pretty excited about this - should improve the quality of these recordings.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So the next episode will be coming to you from the US - we fly there on Thursday.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hope all are well!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Paris" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=0f6c8657e215ef2dc219f188c8ef9ead"&gt;Friendly Fires&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/167330/runyankrundl-167330-07-27-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 11&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-7559989239505711566?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/167330/runyankrundl-167330-07-27-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/7559989239505711566/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/07/run-yank-run-011-vroom-vroom.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/7559989239505711566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/7559989239505711566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/07/run-yank-run-011-vroom-vroom.html' title='Run Yank Run 011: Vroom Vroom'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-2267098709840207789</id><published>2009-07-17T04:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-17T14:36:15.755-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 010: Race Pace</title><content type='html'>The podcast has hit double digits with episode 10, and coincidentally I ran the London 10K last Sunday. My official time chip time was 51:24 with a gun time of 1 hour, 25 minutes. The race was REALLY crowded and as you can see from the gun time it took over 30 minutes just to cross the start line and begin running after they started! I did a lot of weaving around walkers and people in costumes etc. Makes me long for the Peachtree Road Race's time corrals. Guess I got spoiled getting to run up front. Wah wah, poor baby.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This week was another trip to Paris for project meetings - this time a day trip starting with a cab ride at 4:15am but it was a good, productive day.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In other running news I started training for the &lt;a href="http://www.worldwidefestivalofraces.com/cgi-bin/home"&gt;Worldwide Festival of Races&lt;/a&gt; Half Marathon in October. Of the many plans to chose from, I went with the Nike+ Coach since they are very strict of mileage and exact day of each run. I figure I could use the discipline and motivation! Also, I chose the Beginner plan since I have finally accepted the fact that I am over a year behind in mileage and frequency and must gradually build back up. This will force me to limit myself and not go hog wild as I see I tend to do. The last thing I want to do is injure myself... again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Music from the &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/"&gt;Podsafe Music Network&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Featured Song:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"See You At The Lights" by &lt;a href="http://www.musicalley.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=860c06560483adc404bd824df77be2b8"&gt;1990s&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Intro/Outro:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"You Start It" by &lt;a href="http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8c3db2784d866b767b6d9492f8462ccf"&gt;The Monikers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/165452/runyankrundl-165452-07-17-2009.mp3"&gt;Download Episode 10&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6474018712290209028-2267098709840207789?l=runyankrun.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='enclosure' type='audio/mpeg' href='http://m.podshow.com/media/21443/episodes/165452/runyankrundl-165452-07-17-2009.mp3' length='0'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/feeds/2267098709840207789/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/07/run-yank-run-010-race-pace.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/2267098709840207789'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6474018712290209028/posts/default/2267098709840207789'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://runyankrun.blogspot.com/2009/07/run-yank-run-010-race-pace.html' title='Run Yank Run 010: Race Pace'/><author><name>Paul Abrelat</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00962397612856224809</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/Sl3LGJGu0mI/AAAAAAAAACM/bwaf050hjRo/S220/2009_profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6474018712290209028.post-6764216033128800319</id><published>2009-07-10T05:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-10T06:57:39.218-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Run Yank Run 009: Bon Voyage</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Bonjour (or bonsoir depending on when you read this). This short, short episode is from this week's business trip to France. While I'd like to say we spent a few days in Paris, we really spent it in Chatillon, which is an outlying area circa 1930's-40's.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was a short intense trip spent mostly inside the conference room of the client, but I did get two dinners and a run in. I ran a very hilly 4 miles through Chatillion and managed to &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2030446&amp;amp;id=1302949544&amp;amp;l=3a7b1c791a"&gt;get a few pictures along the way&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The highlight of the trip was my first dinner in which I ordered La Potence - which was a steak and potatoes dish done medieval, Torquemada style.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Fg9zsSEjzms/SldGYqtknOI/AAAAAAAAAB8/hjdkdPjkUxA/s320/Paul_food2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356827671376731362" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In other news the twins have spots in the school much nearer our house for next term (meaning neighborhood friends for them finally!) and I met with the third guy from the local band and we are going to have our first rehearsal next week.

In this episode I drop my oldest off at school and then hit the road with my recently modified Dahon foldy bike. I did some work on it - removed the heavy rear rack and reduced the height of the handlebar stem. Had a great ride into work on this lovely summer day!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This episode I try out recording while cycling to work and I think with mixed results, to be honest. There is a LOT of road noise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I did my best to filter out the worst bits and tried some compression, etc, but it's pretty noisy.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If anyone has any suggestions on how best to minimize noise in the first place and how to minimize it during editing &lt;a href="mailto:runyankrun@gmail.com"&gt;I'd love to hear from you&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Felt ill this weekend so took a break from running (my kids had all gotten a bug the week prior and I guess it was my turn).

The bad news is I recorded about 30 minutes of good material during the run - and it didn't record. Nothing. Nada.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So this episode got re-recorded after the fact. On the plus side there's no road noise or panting out-of-breath gasping speech, but recording without running is harder for me than I thought it would be. Sitting there talking along to a computer apparently doesn't come that naturally to me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Anyway...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Last week we had a good visit with our last houseguests - Monique and Dan from the US spent the week seeing the sights and hanging out with us. It was nice to see them!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Next up will be &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;us&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; as houseguests when we go back to the States in about a month and a half.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Got my race packet for the London 10K yesterday - and it had the t-shirt in it! Usually they give you the shirt after race.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This podcast is now listed on &lt;a href="http://www.runningpodcasts.org/"&gt;runningpodcasts.org&lt;/a&gt;! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.runningpodcasts.org/?page_id=3"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; for a list of all the running podcasts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have been subscribing to more and more fitness and running podcasts and here are three that I mention in my podcast:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fiftycountingdown.blogspot.com/"&gt;Fifty Counting Down&lt;/a&gt; - Lybbe's podcast about Veganism, weight loss, and fitness&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://kelownagurltris.blogspot.com/"&gt;Kelownagurl Tris Podcast&lt;/a&gt; - triathlon and general fitness -- very well produced&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rundiggerrun.com/Run_Digger_Run/My_Blog/My_Blog.html"&gt;Run Digger Run&lt;/a&gt; - runner, retired Marine helicopter pilot, boater&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Also, I found a free &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YI0cxuNcq8&amp;amp;eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Esparkpeople%2Ecom%2Fresource%2Ffitness%5Farticles%2Easp%3Fid%3D675&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded"&gt;ab workout video&lt;/a&gt; on YouTube as it appears I MUST do ab work.

It's already in the 90's Fahrenheit in Atlanta - that's gonna be a shock coming from 60's and 70's here in the UK.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At the end of this podcast I try to get some decent pace during a tempo run only to have my run cut short by sharp pains in my lower right leg. At first I thought it was from running on a slope too long, but now I'm sure I upped my mileage and frequency too fast and have the first stage of shin splints. I tried to run on Saturday and ended up limping. Argh. Getting old ain't what it used to be!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'll be taking the week off from running to recover and heal, and I think it's back to the run/train hybrid commute with half the mileage.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, setbacks are part of the process, right?
