Long-Term Running Goals: I love training with others both on road and trail. I also find benefits of running solo when I need to focus and regroup.
Fun fact: Although I prefer to run outside, I don't mind the treadmill for pace accountability and for the blind assumption that I can run really fast. I have a lot of secret treadmill PR's at 0% incline:) Personal:

I had about a 3/10 on the motivation scale for this workout since I had to do it in the middle of the day. It was quite easier than I thought it would be and it never hurt! Things are working.
Hum...not sure what to think of my new PI shoes. Maybe it was the low drop I'm not used to or that they seem .5 size too big. Still thinking on those.

| "What goes up must come down" - Issac Newton
I think he was referring to marathon training.
Dead leg day. I got ready for a speed workout today but knew in the 1st mile it was not going to happen, no matter what. Double dang. I'm not a fan of changing up the schedule since everything seems so calculated. It looks like I'm going to have to merge my speed workout with my long run on Saturday. That's going to be a super fun day! Anyway, trudged through 5 miles, stopping every .5 mi to negotiate with myself. 9:53ap
Also, my PI shoes are growing on me. I had my doubts and still do about racing in them. I'll wear the ones I intend to wear for the marathon on Saturday and see how they perform. Maybe it's the user.

| 1 mile run, 5 on the elliptical. The only way I could get my legs to move. Gosh they're not sore but my hip flexors are exhausted and won't help lift my legs! I have no idea why, well maybe I do. Counting every mile today.

I dramatically screamed when I saw a shadow of a would be critter in the dark. I never want Andy to hear me do that again.

| No time to waste! I'm leaving town for a few days for my grandpa's funeral, so I really need get in a few quality runs in this week!
Today's workout felt hard. I'm not sure if it's from being sick or increasing the incline more than usual. On paper I thought it wouldn't be too bad, but it was rough today.
WU 1.5 mi at 2%
6x1 mi @ <6:48/400 jog. 1-1.5% incline
Picked up the pace on the last one and lowered the incline- it felt nice:)

Hail and snow on the way there, cold wind on the way back. Didn't effect too bad, just how to give a little bit more effort to stay on pace.
First half of workout felt easy, last 2 mi started to feel hard.

I'm feeling encouraged that my marathon pace is beginning to feel quite a bit more doable and I can find a rhythm rather quickly. Oh, but marathons are hard.

| This was hard today. Struggled the first 7 then suffered the last 9:)
So grateful this week is over. The schedule shows two more weeks of pain before letting up. I hope my legs can take it! Seriously.
+2 mile elliptical shake out.
On the bright side, I feel like things are working as they should and that I'll be ready by April!
