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
6.20	6.00	12.20

20 min upper body weights

Death by treadmill workout 3-2-1. 1 mile warmup 6:35, 6:31, 6:27, half a mile jog 6:31, 6:27, half mile jog, 6:18. 1.2 mile cooldown. This was not easy by any means and I'm a total treadmill cheater. Always start at 1.5% incline and drop to zero by the end. My IT band was bothering me a bit after this workout so I'm just going to take it nice and easy the next 2 weeks and try to go into 2013 100% healthy. I just need to be smart and do all of the little things ITBS rehab, foam rolling, icing.

Everyone come out to the Twas the Run Before Christmas fun run this Saturday. Meet at Kneaders in the River bottoms of Provo at 7:30am. Run as fast/slow and long/short as you want. Breakfast afterwards at Kneaders around 9am. Come for the run or just for breakfast. :) Let me know if you need the address or directions.

PM: 3 miles easy 25 min

Very nice Rachelle!! And smart to take it easy.

Good workout.

Definitely gotta be smart w/ the ITB. Its been like 3 months now since it first started bothering you... you don't want it still lingering another 2-3 months from now and causing problems. Hopefully a couple easy weeks will do the trick. Play it safe so you can be running at full health again and won't have to worry about it anymore.

Thanks Carina & Jake! It is not any major pain but the fact that I'm even feeling it at all makes me realize that I just need to be smart. No sense in forcing workouts right now just because I'm bored on the treadmill. :)

Yeah as boring as it might be to just run easy, its better than letting this ITB thing drag on.

I cheat too. Some people think the TM is "cheating/easier" and in order to counter that you have to add 1% for friction/wind resistance/elevation change but personally I think the mental challenge is worth at least 1%. It's all about effort anyways and I think the TM is 150% harder than the road.

You sure racked up the miles to close out 2012. Ironically I was just wondering last night how your IT band was doing. Sounds like a great plan to take it easy.

Looks like a killer workout, btw. Nice work!
