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.

50 minutes lazy Sunday running. Wore a new pair of lighter weight Mizunos that I bought awhile back and felt fine.

Now to tackle the mountain of laundry that winter running seems to create.

20 min Strength training including ITBS rehab

Treadmill run: 9.3 miles in 68:30. 5.3 easy & then 14 x 1 min on/off. On's at 10.0-10.3 mph (6:00-5:49 pace), off's at 7.1. I normally watch channel 2 news at the gym but today I had a treadmill without a TV so I was listenning to the music channel. Towards the end of my workout everyone on the front row of treadmills turned around and started starring at me and I realized I was singing out loud. "Life is a highway, I wanna ride it all night long." haha I was totally belting it out. Speedwork makes me crazy!

PM: 3 miles easy.

8 mile orchard loop with Jen. We set a new CR of 56:54. Jen & I had both done Speedwork yesterday so we had no intentions of moving fast but just gradually picked up the pace and ran the last 4 miles at sub 7. 6:58, 6:53, 6:47, 6:38. We were talking up until about the last half mile and I feel like this was a really good workout on fatigued legs from yesterdays SW. We were both completely trashed by the finish. Doing a tempo the day after SW is not something I would normally do or recommend but every once in awhile I think it is okay to practice running hard on tired legs. I added a slower 2 mile cooldown afterwards. I will definitely be taking it super easy tomorrow. Anyone up for a recovery jog?

10 min foam rolling and lower body ST.

PM: 3 miles nice & easy. I was dreading this run all day for some reason but it felt great to shake my legs out. 8:20 pace

9 mi easy recovery on Jen's hilly route in Salem, 7:50 pace. Warm but way windy out in Salem. My training is all sorts of mixed up right now and since I ran fast mon & tues I decided double recovery days were in order. I should probably put together some type of structure or plan but the "just go with the flow" mentality sure is fun. :)

I am feeling pretty good and my body seems to be handling the higher volume quite well. I think I am finally starting to get excited about racing in 2013.

I actually planned a workout this morning but it took me 40 min to drive 10 miles to the gym so I had to modify. I wanted to do a LR of 13-14 miles with the last 4-5 starting at MP and finishing at HMP. Instead I ended up with 11.2. First 6.2 easy and then 4 tempo miles 6:39, 6:35, 6:31, 6:27. I was a little dissapointed with how hard this felt but I still think it was a good workout. It is really hard mentally to maintain a tempo pace on the treadmill.

Total run time: 83 min

Total commute time: 75 min....and that does not count the drive home!

12.5 miles on the treadmill in 1:34 I think. Just a boring progressive run. Metetarsalgia starting to reappear towards the end of the run. ugh!
