Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences. I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn. I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.

Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
14.15	0.00	14.15

Decided to run with my old training group from last Spring. I was quickly reminded of how hilly and windy Mapleton is. We did an 8 mile loop around Mapleton and then ran 2 miles up Hobble Creek Canyon. I never thought I would be running up HC in mid January. It was icy, windy, and cold brrrr but a good adventure. Turned around and headed back to my friend Pam's house. Overall it was a good run but my body definitely feels fatigued this week. AP was 8:27. My shin held up pretty good and only bothered me when I surged or was running uphill.

Went to the gym afterwards to do weights. I was going to run 2 more mi on the treadmill after I lifted to get 16 in for the day but I was exhausted and just saw no sense in pushing myself just for the number. I kind of feel like everyone is ahead of me with Boston training but hopefully I can start to increase my endurance in February. No need to push to much now and end up with an injury.

Rachelle I would argue that you are AHEAD of where you need to be for Boston! :-) Do you remember doing 3 x 2 miles @ 10K pace a few days ago? Haha I couldn't do that right now!

Seriously - you are at a great level of fitness right now. We have 13+ weeks to go... that is a ton of time. You will be ready!!!

ps - we booked our flights - we are taking the southwest flight on saturday @845 AM out of SLC... its one of the few flights that doesn't require a red-eye or late arrival.

Thanks for your feedback Jake! I have been feeling like I am behind and a little bit discouraged but I think you are probably right.

I am flying with Southwest as well but we (my Dad is going with me) are leaving Thursday afternoon. Neither of us have ever been to Boston so we are making a little trip out of it.

NO worries RAchelle. No one is ahead of you because you are running YOUR OWN RACE!! Remember that ;D : D

Boston ( in my opinion ) is about really

Enjoying the race. You will love it and PR I would

Put money on it!
