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:)

I am a Mormon

 

I am married to a supportive and driven husband. Together we enjoy geocaching, hiking, camping, reading and playing games with our three rambunctious children.

Aside from running, I am a homemaker and a Mental Health Therapist. Running has given me the ability to better concert my energies between my family, faith and friends.

Warmup 3.4mi on TM 8:20’s

15 mins plyometrics on track

15 mins Hiit

 

Workout-

1% incline

12x2 mins @ 6:32ap

1 min rest

Finally my Stryd sensor matches the TM speed at my gym within a few seconds. They must have recalibrated them for the new year. Yay for Vasa yay for me.

 

Felt pretty hard today. I’ll have to go back and see if this is progress or regression to wrap my head around today’s perceived effort. I’m either going to hi-five myself or revamp my current base training plan. I did eat nachos at 11:00 last night so I’ll probably blame it on that. 👌🏼

Met Scott and Craig for a quick JRP run. I arrived a few mins early and got a warm up mile in. JRP was mostly a sheet of black ice along the entire route except for the tunnels! So that led to constant slipping & sliding, a few screams and some falls. To top it off, none of us brought our headlamps so that made it even more interesting. Super fun anyway.

JRP was clear w/ good traction. I’m noticing my running economy is improving finally over the past week or so. The adaptation process from the last couple months of running JRP is paying off faster than it did last time at this year in my preparation for Boston. Good for me.

Long run on JRP. 8:26 ap. I’m pretty sure I’m not going to speed up for these runs till the summer. Even then I don’t know if I want to. Life is good.
