Short-Term Running Goals: 2019 Tenitive Race Schedule

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 was a big running slacker over the weekend due to camping in the Tetons. I caught and ate my first fish! I hate fish, but want to like it. So that will one of the goals for 2012. Eat and tolerate fish. Blah. Not excited about that one.
AM-Today I did a fartlek of 5,4,3,2,1 mins at 10k-5k pace. The junk I ate over the weekend certainly took its toll this morning during the workout. Paces were: 6:07, 6:00, 5:56, 5:45, 5:30. The faster paces actually felt more comfortable than the 6mi/mi pace oddly enough. I need to challenge my paces more often it seems. I would like to think I could run these shorter races this fast right now, but I need to transition my training from marathon to 10k training for the winter. I think I am going to start focusing on 10k pacing after the half this month up until spring.
Afterwards stretched out with 10 mins of planks alternating sides. These are never easy for me.
PM-6 miles down 400 with lots of rain and wind. Loved it!
Happy running! |

Gosh, I was up so many times last night from my husband's pager going crazy! That's the last night I sleep with him while he's on call. It's funny how I'm more concerned about my sleep for running the next day than I am him going in a full day off of no sleep. Running makes me selfish. Anyone else? What's the cure? Empathy? Sympathy? I got nothing.
My joints were bugging me today, so decdided for cross training. 20 min row machine, 20 mins stair cimber, 30 mins elliptical, 20 minues of core and weights. Hope to do a easy run for PM. | | Comments(2) |

Today I ran 10 on Davis' rolling hills. This is a love/hate course for me. Loves: The scenerey, safe road, long stretch and familiar. Hate: rolling hills, hard to get a steady pace/cadence, steep climb there and steep decent on return, millions of deer with thier babies, scared cougars are going to pounce on me in the dark and having to stop to wait for traffic at busy intersections. Huh, looks like the hates out weigh the loves here, but I still love it overall for some reason:) As a side note, saw 11 deer this AM.
Ran 5 miles for a warmup then did 4 mile tempo on the way back with 1 mile cool down. All the miles were rolling hills with some minor stops for traffic, last mile was downhill. Splits were 7:08, 7:20 7:09, 6:38. Felt pretty good and still had energy when I got home. Feeling stronger. Hopefully I have made some improvements over the month and will be able to challenge my PR in the half in two weeks. |

| This morning I was pressed for time due to having to go into work. I did 25 mins easy spin, 5 min planks, 5 mins row, stretched and went home. Having some tendonitis like pains in my left foot and right ankle. Need to minimize all this hill pounding I guess. Podiatry app set for Monday. He's going to tell me what I already know..RICE. Blah. | | Comments(2) |
