Quick log. Mile repeats on Tuesday: 6.27, 6.00, 6.04, 6.01. Felt relaxed. Ran the last three alone. I feel like I’m sort of stuck in between groups. Trying to learn not to “race” these interval workouts. Learning that I don’t need to kill it every time, especially when I’m preparing for a race.
I signed up for 3M. Gilbert thinks I’m gonna do some crazy time. I think I’m gonna do some other time. We’ll see who is right. By the way, I’m looking for someone to run with. Anyone? McFly?
A while back I posted about trying to set up Google Spreadsheets as my training log. At that point I gave up trying to access the data externally, but a few weeks ago Google opened up their API, and I was able to wrangle some crude graphs and stats out of the deal. I may invest some time in actually setting up some sort of log, but we’ll see. I signed up for the new Flotrackr system, and its pretty nifty in some regards, but barebones in others. Really, it seems like more of a Facebook for runners than a training log. I couldn’t see how to enter intervals or the like, other than into a textbox, but maybe I just didn’t explore enough.
These two graphs and the table are generated dynamically from the Google spreadsheets data.

Endeavoring to be more of a producer than a consumer, ran across Project Euler which looks to be low friction but somewhat useful and interesting. Unfortunately their register/login system is broken: Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/admin/domains/projecteuler.net/public_html/includes/login_preprocess.php on line 11 So I’ll keep track on my own blog I guess [...]
Soldiering on with Aptana, fighting as I go, here’s how I was able to set up automatic synchronization between my project and a remote server accessed through a mounted/mapped drive. Set up your project Set up your remote preview server Set up an (S)FTP deployment connection, make sure you check “Automatically sync my changes” Go [...]
At work we are stuck with Subversion 1.4 clients (cough, Dreamweaver, ahem), so any new IDE I try has to use the SVN 1.4 api and format. Every 6 months or so I like to test drive IDEs, but most new editors and IDEs long ago gave up support for SVN 1.4 (except for PHPStorm, [...]
good luck at 3M. i wish i could come cheer you on, but i’m already booked on sunday morning.
January 25th, 2007 at 12:01 pm[...] Those mile repeats and its friendly downhills were still with me on Wednesday, and yesterday’s fartlek “announced its presence with authority” all day today. Who knew pressing the gas pedal could hurt like that? Oh well, I’ll see how it goes, do my best, maybe not my smartest, and that will be that. I’m just your ordinary mid-packer so there’s nothing at stake. [...]
